Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Pleasanton, CA

You’re the one everyone relies on. You get things done, show up, and keep it together—but lately, it feels like too much. Your mind won’t slow down, you’re constantly overthinking, and even when you “rest,” you don’t actually feel better.

From the outside, you look like you have it all together. Inside, you’re exhausted.

I work with high-achieving women who are tired of carrying everything on their own. Whether it’s anxiety, burnout, or feeling disconnected from yourself, we’ll work together to help you feel grounded, clear, and back in control of your life.

I have completed Phase 1 Brainspotting training through Pacific Trauma Center and may integrate Brainspotting into sessions for clients interested in exploring a deeper brain-body approach to healing.

I have over 30 years of clinical, counseling and administrative experience working with individuals and couples, addressing the unique issues related to their unique life experiences. I have extensive professional and personal experience with military families and veterans. I understand first-hand the struggles of grief and medical conditions that impact all aspects of life. I have supported chronically and terminally ill patients, individuals living with cancer or chronic medical diagnoses, as well as parents experiencing infertility, peripartum, and postpartum depression. Whether dealing with life transitions, parenting, depression, anxiety, or divorce, or simply seeking to express yourself and feel more confident, I am here to walk with you, provide insights, and support you toward lasting change.

For over 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of helping individuals untangle the weight of trauma, stress, and life’s most difficult experiences. You don’t have to navigate this alone. Whether you’re feeling on edge, disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, therapy can be a place to finally exhale.

Specializing in perinatal and infant mental health, I focus on assisting black women through the transformative phases of pregnancy and postpartum, helping navigate emotions and set healthy boundaries to support goals. My broad experience covers perinatal/postpartum issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, parenting, and childhood trauma. My commitment is to collaboratively guide you towards discovering joy in your pregnancy and postpartum journey, even amidst challenges.
