Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Bellingham, WA

We all have experiences in life that might leave us feeling broken or disconnected with ourselves, others, in relationships, and the world around us. I believe that healing and wholeness can belong to all of us. If you are looking for someone to support you on your journey toward wellness and restoration, allow me to accompany you on the road that can often feel isolating when taken alone. The therapeutic relationship is paramount to me!

I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor ( LMHC) who provides warm, supportive space for individuals seeking growth and healing. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and relationship concerns, using evidence based approaches tailored to each client. My goal is to help clients feel understood, empowered, and confident as they work toward meaningful change.

I specialize in working with women and parents navigating major life transitions. This includes those dealing with pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, infertility, and pregnancy loss. I also work with clients processing birth-related trauma or feeling overwhelmed by anxiety and identity shifts.

I am a marriage and family therapist that works with couples / families to help them overcome their communication challenges. I specialize in helping couples and families navigate one of the most stressful and often unspoken challenges in relationships—financial strain. Money issues can create tension, conflict, and distance, but they don’t have to define your relationship. Together, we’ll work to understand what’s happening and develop practical, lasting solutions that fit your family. I am also extremely capable at helping with the additional relationship struggles of couples & families.

I also work extensively with couples in premarital therapy, helping you build a strong foundation before marriage. We’ll address communication, expectations, finances, and future planning so you feel confident moving forward together.

With over 17 years of experience as a marriage and family therapist, I focus on helping you not just talk about problems—but actually make meaningful changes. I use a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy to help you better understand your patterns, shift unhelpful thinking, and take clear, actionable steps toward improvement.

My approach is collaborative and practical. Every couple and family is different, and my goal is to help you find solutions that work for your unique situation—not a one-size-fits-all approach.

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in recurring conflict, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Change is possible, and we can work toward it together. My goal is to help you see measurable progress—not just talk about problems.

I work hard to be clinically informed and Christ centered in all that I do with my clients.

As a late diagnosed ADHD woman, I understand the struggles of perfectionism, anxiety and disordered eating and strive to provide neuro-affirming care. You deserve to feel good about yourself and I am confident we can get you there.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctorate in Social Work, and I bring both clinical expertise and real life understanding into the therapy space. My professional background includes years of direct clinical practice as well as leadership roles in complex, high stress systems, including serving as a Mental Health Director. These experiences have shaped my ability to support individuals who are navigating pressure, responsibility, and emotional overwhelm while still being expected to function at a high level.

I work best with clients who are strong on the outside but struggling internally. Many of the people I support are women, mothers, professionals, caregivers, and helpers who are used to showing up for others while neglecting their own emotional needs. I have a particular passion for working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, burnout, life transitions, relationship stress, identity concerns, and trauma related to past or ongoing stressors.

Therapy with me is not about having all the answers. It is about learning how to trust yourself, set healthy boundaries, and show up for your life with more compassion and confidence.
