I specialize in nurturing your well-being through every stage of pregnancy, postpartum and early motherhood.

Perinatal Mood & Anxiety Disorders (PMADs): I provide compassionate support for anxiety and depression that may have developed or worsened during pregnancy or the postpartum period.
Perinatal Loss & Grief: I hold a sacred space for the profound grief of miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss.
Pregnancy & Birth Transitions: I help process fears around birth, adapt to physical and lifestyle changes, or heal from a difficult or traumatic birth experience.
Postpartum Adjustment & Identity: I help you rediscover who you are outside of being a mother, manage burnout, engage boundary-setting, and adjust to changing partner dynamics.
My Approach
I provide an integrative, mind-body approach tailored to support your unique perinatal journey.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): I help you identify and gently reframe intrusive thoughts, anxiety, and unhelpful patterns, giving you practical strategies to feel more in control of your mind.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): I help you develop practical skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and mindfulness to navigate intense feelings, stress, and big life shifts with greater ease.
Somatic Approaches: I help you connect mind and body by using gentle, nervous-system-based techniques to release stored tension, ease physical anxiety, and help you feel safely rooted back in your body.
