About My Clients

I am passionate about supporting individuals through pregnancy, postpartum and beyond. I have worked with clients experiencing a range of issues but I specialize in perinatal mood disorders. Clients I work with are perinatal individuals (those who are trying to conceive, currently pregnant or postpartum) who are struggling with fertility issues, postpartum mood disorders, parenting and coparenting struggles, among other issues during this intense season of life.

My Background and Approach

My background and trainings are in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and perinatal mood disorders but my approach with clients is always individualized and collaborative. My approach is skills based and solution focused, with some humor sprinkled in every now and then!

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that we are all capable of change and growth with the right tools and support. We are all capable of doing hard things and my goal is to empower my clients to believe this for themselves. I believe that the relationship between client and therapist is the most important part of creating change. I strive to always create genuine connections with my clients by being empathetic, honest and direct. If this speaks to you- reach out for a free consultation!
