Motherhood and the journey to get there isn’t always what we expect. Along the way, you can encounter set backs or challenges that feel overwhelming, isolating, or harder than anything you’ve ever faced before.
Whether you’re navigating the anxiety + depression that can accompany pregnancy or postpartum, healing after a traumatic birth, or grieving your experience of infertility or loss — you don’t have to go through it alone. With specialized perinatal mental health training, I provide evidence-based, compassionate care to help you process what you’re going through, make sense of your emotions, and develop the tools + skills you need to bloom well in new motherhood.
**Please note I’m not accepting new therapy clients at this time but check back or stay updated on openings + other offers here.
Therapy for Perinatal Depression + Anxiety
Many new mothers wonder why they don’t feel like themselves after having a baby. You might be experiencing anxiety, guilt, mood swings, or irritability that just won’t go away. Or maybe you’re caught in a cycle of worry and questioning whether what you’re feeling is “normal.” And with the added strain of hormonal changes and chronic sleep deprivation, it’s easy to wonder if you’ll ever feel like your old self again.
But you’re not alone, and with support you will feel better. With my specialized certification in perinatal mental health, I’m here to walk alongside you through this season — together, we’ll work to reduce your anxiety, rebuild your confidence, and help you find a sense of control + fulfillment in motherhood.
Therapy for Pregnancy + Birth Trauma
Sometimes pregnancy and birth don’t go the way we imagined.
It can unexpectedly can take a wrong turn, leaving yours or your baby’s health at risk, and you with intense anxiety.
Or maybe your delivery was not what you hoped for, perhaps even traumatic — leaving you feeling shaken, numb, or disconnected.
You might notice yourself replaying parts of the experience, feeling fearful, or getting anxious when you think about your pregnancy, labor, or birth. Instead of joy, you may feel only overwhelm, confusion, and sadness, even if you hold your healthy baby in your arms today.
Many mothers don’t realize how much pregnancy or birth trauma can affect your daily lives and sense of self. But with the right support, you can process what happened and make sense of your emotions, so you can begin to heal and find peace in your journey as a parent.
Therapy for Infertility + Perinatal Loss
For some, the start to the motherhood journey includes heartbreak. The grief of infertility, pregnancy loss, stillbirth, or infant loss can be isolating + overwhelming, and leave you with unanswered questions, waves of deep anguish + sadness, or even guilt + anger that can be hard to put into words.
You may feel like no one around you truly understands the depth of your pain, and that you’re expected to “move on” before you’re ready. The truth is, there is no right way — and no timeline — for grieving these kinds of losses.
I can help you process your emotions, honor your experience, and begin to heal in your own time and in your own way.
Therapy for Couples + Parenting Partners
Becoming parents changes everything — not just for you as a new mother, but for your relationship. Even the strongest partnerships can feel the strain of sleepless nights, shifting roles, new responsibilities, and the emotional intensity of pregnancy + early parenthood.
You may find yourselves arguing more, feeling misunderstood, or struggling to stay connected in the middle of all the changes. Or maybe you’re simply craving a safe space to communicate openly and learn how to support each other better.
I can help you better understand each other’s needs + build a more resilient foundation so you can move through this season not just as co-parents, but as partners who feel supported, connected, and on the same team.
