Great to meet you!

Great to meet you!

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum mental health. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, overwhelm, and the emotional challenges that can come with trying to grow a family or adjusting to life with a new baby.

Seeking support during this time can feel like a big step, and you don’t have to go through it alone. My goal is to help you feel understood while also making sense of what you’re going through and finding a way forward.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative. I want you to feel supported, but also like we’re making real progress toward what matters to you.

I use evidence-based approaches like ACT and CBT to help you better understand your thoughts, step out of anxiety loops, and respond to challenges in a way that feels more grounded and aligned with your values. Rather than trying to eliminate difficult thoughts or feelings, we focus on changing your relationship to them so they have less control over you.

Our work will be practical and tailored to your life, with tools and strategies you can use outside of session so you can start to feel more like yourself again.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we’ll take time to understand what’s been feeling most difficult for you and what you’re hoping will feel different. You don’t need to have everything figured out, we’ll work through it together.

I’ll ask some questions to get a clearer picture of your experiences, and we’ll begin identifying patterns that may be contributing to anxiety or overwhelm. We’ll also talk about what feels most important to focus on moving forward.

My goal is for you to leave that first session feeling understood, a little more grounded, and with a clearer sense of direction.
