About My Clients
Maybe you're a working mom feeling torn between your two worlds. Or, a SAHM feeling pigeon-holed into one. You might be a mom struggling with your little one's behaviors, trying every resource accessible to you to fix them. Or, perhaps you are longing to be a mom, and feeling othered and deflated because you don't feel as if you belong in any of those categories. Regardless, there's something inherently female about it all, isn't there?
My Background and Approach
I have extensive education and experience providing therapy rooted in methods of play therapy as well as, perinatal, reproductive, and maternal mental health. From this, I have developed an affinity for working with children and their caretakers to better understand and regulate a wide variety of experiences and emotions. In addition, l will provide you with take-home-tools to encourage your child's growth and your relationship with your child. But, my desire to support the family system does not stop at the parent-child relationship. It actually pre-dates it. I am here to support you in those critical days before the parent-child relationship is established. This is during your fertility and perinatal seasons. Expanding your family can be challenging and anxiety-provoking. Sometimes there can be a whirlwind of emotions experienced by each partner- whether that is due to difficulties with infertility, navigating loss, or moving through the prenatal and postpartum transitions.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My intention is to help you connect more deeply with yourself, honor your values, and feel supported as you navigate both the challenges and the growth in your life. I view therapy as a collaborative process. You bring your lived experiences, inner wisdom, and strengths. I bring clinical training, tools, and a commitment to walking with you. I believe in the power of acceptance, belonging, and community. I believe therapy can be grounding and transformative; and I believe you are here for a reason. I’m a sociable introvert who loves to read! I am a proud parent to both a human and fur-children alike, and feel most centered outdoors. I am also someone with my own lived experiences with infertility and pregnancy loss. I understand that no two fertility journeys are the same, and I firmly believe in the importance of having a nonjudgmental space to process grief. These truths allow my care to be rooted in compassion and empathy, while acknowledging that my journey is not yours.
