Great to meet you!
Life can feel overwhelming and emotionally exhausting at times. Maybe you've been running on empty for a while. Maybe you've been overthinking everything, your mood has been "off" or the things you used to handle with ease feel crushing now. Therapy can offer you a chance to slow down, gain insight and build skills to help you start to feel better.
I have over 15 years of experience in the mental health system in Sacramento. I've worked with teen and adult clients struggling with anxiety and depression, trauma, life transitions and school/career stress and burnout.
I am certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), an evidence-based modality used to improve sleep quality and reduce dependence on sleep medications.
I have a special focus working with individuals navigating pregnancy, postpartum experiences, fertility challenges, pregnancy loss and the transition into parenthood. I work to create a judgement-free space where new parents can be honest about struggles with mood issues, overwhelming fears, struggling managing life with a new baby and grief that comes with birth trauma, loss or fertility hardships. Growing your family can be a time of immense joy coupled with significant stress, you don't have to navigate it alone.
I'm a big believer that a bit of daily whimsy is a necessary to fill your cup and keep you going forward. When I'm not working with clients, you may find me paddleboarding with my dog, watching British crime shows or trying out the seasonal lattes at a local coffee shop.
