Hi, there! My name is Summer, and I'm so glad you're here.
I have over 12 years of experience in a variety of settings, including universities, private practice, hospitals, and schools. I have specialized training in maternal mental health, ADHD, and parenting. I earned a Doctorate in Social Work from Tulane University and my Bachelor's in psychology and Master's in social work are both from Case Western Reserve University.
I'm a perfect fit for you if you've ever left a therapy session feeling disappointed because you were hoping for something more authentic. I show up in a very real way so that you can feel safe to do the same. I specialize in working with women and parents, and provide a safe space to explore stress, challenges in parenting, coping with ADHD as an adult (especially adult women), and other maternal mental health needs. I have special training and expertise in parenting multiples, coping with infertility, and processing how the experience of motherhood may be different from what you had expected.
I offer individual, relationship, and family therapy services, as well as parenting and coparenting coaching. My approach is person-centered and humanistic; I strongly believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship. I use a combination of techniques to support you in creating the life you want. I am LGBTQIA-allied, body positive, and sex positive.
I am a modern virtual therapist, which means that I value your mental health needs in the context of your life. I have been where you are and I know how overwhelming it can feel to find a therapist that's perfect for you. I believe that the right fit can be life-changing. The human in me is so excited to meet the human in you. I can't wait to get started!
You'll walk away from our sessions feeling connected, validated, and excited to implement skills and insights from our work together into your daily life.
