Great to meet you!

As a PMH-C (Perinatal Mental Health Certified) Therapist licensed in Virginia and Washington, DC and a certified Women's Mental Health Specialist, I support women & maternal mental health during their preconception, pregnancy, postpartum, and life transitions.

Whether it is her first time motherhood, second pregnancy loss, or a third embryo transfer, it may undeniably be one of the toughest seasons of a woman’s life. As a mother myself, I am passionate and dedicated in supporting women's mental health and the various challenges women are faced with.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy is part art and part science. I strive to use evidence based treatments to offer appropriate frameworks but tailor the way it best suits my clients’ needs. I will draw from my experience and expertise to support and guide you to achieve your goals.

What you can expect from me

I consider it a privilege to hear your story and work with you. I will collaborate with you, hold up a mirror for you at times for you to regain your inner strength, and hold a safe and warm space for you to process your experience. I look forward to working with you.
