Whether you're just starting to explore options, navigating treatment cycles, recovering from loss, or facing tough decisions about next steps, you don't have to go through this alone. Together, we can explore your experience, honor your feelings, and find ways to cope with the weight of waiting, longing, and not knowing -- while making space for hope and healing.

Pregnancy and new parenthood can bring big changes -- physically, emotionally, and mentally. While it's often painted as a joyful time, the truth is that many people also experience anxiety, sadness, overwhelm, and disconnection.

CBT is a practical, evidence based approach I use to help clients cope with the emotional challenges than can arise during fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum. It's based on the idea that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are all connected -- and when we become aware of unhelpful thought patterns, we can begin to shift how we feel and respond.
