Great to meet you!

Welcome to my profile, and thank you for being here. I am a psychotherapist specializing in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, secondary infertility, and parenting challenges. I bring extensive clinical experience and a mindful, evidence-based approach to support individuals through some of the most meaningful and complex seasons of their lives.

I believe deeply in the inherent resilience and capacity for growth within every person. Therapy, to me, is a collaborative process—one where we work together to understand your experiences, strengthen your wellbeing, and help you move toward the life you want with clarity and confidence.

My approach to therapy

Grounded in a strengths-based and trauma-informed framework, my work is rooted in empathy, clinical expertise, and genuine connection. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can speak openly, explore your emotions, and gain practical tools for healing and lasting change.

What you can expect from me

Whether you are navigating trauma, adjusting to parenthood, facing fertility challenges, or seeking personal growth, I am here to offer compassionate support and effective guidance. If you’re ready to begin, you can book an appointment directly through my website.
