About My Clients
Many of my clients are high-functioning women and mothers who appear to “have it together” on the outside while internally struggling with anxiety, guilt, overstimulation, rage, intrusive thoughts, people-pleasing, or emotional exhaustion. Some are navigating postpartum depression or postpartum anxiety for the first time, while others are realizing that motherhood has resurfaced unresolved childhood wounds and painful family dynamics.
My Background and Approach
As a therapist specializing in perinatal mental health, I take an attachment-focused, trauma-informed, and relational approach to therapy. I understand that symptoms like anxiety, hypervigilance, perfectionism, emotional shutdown, or intrusive thoughts often develop for important reasons; especially in the context of chronic stress, unmet emotional needs, or difficult early relationships. My work integrates evidence-based approaches with experiential and nervous-system-informed interventions like EMDR to support lasting healing rather than surface-level coping alone. I draw from modalities that help clients understand both the emotional and physiological impact of trauma, anxiety, and relational wounds. I strive to create a therapy space that feels warm, collaborative, grounded, and deeply human. My goal is not to “fix” you, but to help you feel more connected, empowered, and emotionally safe within yourself and your relationships.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe maternal mental health deserves compassionate, specialized care. Too many mothers suffer silently because they’ve been taught to minimize their needs, push through exhaustion, or believe struggling means they are failing. I believe healing begins when people feel emotionally safe enough to tell the truth about their experiences without fear of judgment. I also believe that becoming a parent can bring unresolved wounds to the surface, especially around attachment, caregiving, boundaries, and identity. The mother wound can deeply impact how we see ourselves, care for others, and move through relationships. Healing these patterns is possible, and it does not require blaming yourself or becoming someone entirely different. You deserve support that honors both your pain and your resilience. Therapy can be a place to slow down, understand your story with greater compassion, and begin creating a version of motherhood, and selfhood, that feels more authentic and sustainable.
