Pregnancy & Postpartum Mental Health Therapy
Compassionate therapy for parents navigating anxiety, depression, OCD, birth trauma, and the emotional challenges that come with pregnancy and the postpartum journey.
You Are Not Alone
Up to 1 in 5 mothers and 1 in 10 fathers experience a perinatal mood or anxiety disorder. While it may feel isolating, what you are experiencing is common and, most importantly, temporary with the right support. Reaching out is the first step toward feeling like yourself again.

Being unable to sleep even when the baby is sleeping peacefully.

My Approach

My goal is to meet you exactly where you are—without judgment—and help you find your steady ground again.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it okay to bring my baby to session?
Absolutely. I understand that childcare can be a barrier. Babies in arms are always welcome in my virtual or in-person sessions.
How do I know if this is just 'baby blues' or something more?
The 'baby blues' typically resolve within two weeks. If your symptoms are intense, persistent, or interfering with your ability to function, it is time to seek professional support.
Do you offer virtual sessions?
Yes, I offer secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth sessions so you can receive support from the comfort and convenience of your home.
You Don’t Have to Do This Alone
You deserve support just as much as your baby deserves a healthy, supported parent.
Whether you're pregnant, newly postpartum, or months into parenthood and wondering why things still feel so hard, healing is possible.
I'd be honored to walk alongside you.
When is the right time to seek support?
If you are feeling unlike yourself, experiencing intrusive thoughts that scare you, having trouble sleeping, or feeling a sense of deep detachment—there is no 'too early' or 'too late' to reach out.
