Great to meet you!

My passion is supporting new parents, young children and growing families. New parenthood and those early years can be uniquely challenging and often isolating. I am specially trained to support you from pregnancy to “family hood” and work with mothers, families, couples and children up to age 7. If you are feeling overwhelmed in this season you are not alone. I would love to work with you individually, with your child, or with your partner. I want to be another person on your team to help you become the parent (and person!) you want to be.

My approach to therapy

When it comes to parenting there is no one size fits all. Every child and every parent is unique and I will partner with you develop individualized strategies that will make things easier, more joyful and less stressful for you and your family. I am relationship and attachment focused and use modalities including Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Child-Parent Psychotherapy and Reflective Parenting. I am trained in perinatal mental health and certified Gottman “Bringing Baby Home” trainer, a research based program designed help couples strengthen their relationship as they navigate the transition from couple to family. My goal is to improve communication and deepen understanding between you and those you love the most.

What you can expect from me

A first session is all about learning about each other. I want to hear about you and what brings you to therapy. I will ask questions and give you space to share, at your pace. It is also a time for you ask questions and learn about me to decide if we are the right fit for one another.
