About me

Healing the connection between your mind and your body.

We often try to "think" our way out of stress or grief, but difficult experiences—especially those related to birth, fertility, and parenting—are physically felt. They show up as a knot in your stomach, a tightness in your chest, or a nervous system that feels like it’s constantly on high alert. My work is about helping you tune into those signals so you can move toward a sense of balance and ease.

​

Why I Specialize in This Field

My focus on perinatal mental health is rooted in a deep respect for the resilience of those navigating the path to parenthood. Early in my career, I was moved by the stories of clients facing the profound isolation of infertility, IVF, and pregnancy loss. I saw firsthand how much this community needed a dedicated space where their experiences were met with both specialized expertise and genuine empathy.

​

Having navigated my own complexities on the path to parenthood, I have a deep personal understanding of how heavy these life-altering periods can feel. I’ve dedicated my practice to providing the specialized guidance and clinical tools I know are essential for navigating these transitions.

​

My Clinical Toolbox

• EMDR: I use EMDR to help your brain and body process difficult or traumatic memories so they no longer carry the same emotional weight in your daily life.

• Somatic Awareness: Rooted in Somatic Experiencing (SE) principles, I help you understand and release the physical stress stored in your body.

• Perinatal Expertise: With advanced training from Postpartum Support International, I am specifically equipped to support you at any stage of the perinatal timeframe. 

​

You are more than your role as a parent.

In the world of pregnancy and postpartum, the focus is almost always on the baby. You’ve likely spent months being asked questions like "how the baby is growing/sleeping/feeding?". It is easy for your own identity and your own needs to get lost in the shuffle.

​

In this space, the focus is on you. I am here to see the person behind the parent. You deserve a space where your story is the center of the conversation.
