Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Milwaukee, WI

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or out of balance in your life or relationships? Maybe anxiety, depression, stress, or the demands of daily life have started to feel heavier than they once did. Whether you are navigating personal challenges, relationship difficulties, parenting stress, or emotional exhaustion, therapy can offer a space to slow down, feel supported, and begin moving forward with greater clarity and confidence.

My passion is helping people create meaningful, lasting change in their lives. I take a holistic, compassionate approach to therapy while drawing from evidence-based practices tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals. I believe progress is not one-size-fits-all, and I work to create a therapeutic experience that is thoughtful, flexible, and responsive to the individual sitting in front of me.

I enjoy working with adults, couples, families, children, and adolescents across a range of concerns. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel seen, respected, and empowered to better understand themselves, strengthen relationships, and build the tools needed to navigate life more effectively.

I specialize in using body-based approaches clients move through Trauma, Loss and Grief. My training is in holistic Somatic Psychotherapy. I offer Brainspotting and Ketamine-assisted and psychedelic integration work. I support clients to heal from loss and trauma, improve your relationship with yourself and your relationships with others. If you are tired of talking about the same issues week after week without real change, let's work together toward deeper processing and accelerated healing.

Hello and welcome! I want to commend you on taking this step toward self-care. Our mental health is just as important as our physical health yet sometimes it takes a back seat. As a clinician for almost 20 years, I have spent my career helping clients achieve their mental health goals. I have had the privilege of working with all different walks of life from young children to adults helping them to uncover their strength through difficult moments of their lives.

As a Licesnded Clinical Professional Counselor, I believe that meeting clients where they are and providing holistic care is the key to a healthy wellness journey. As experts of our own lives, we often hold the key to unlocking the solutions we seek. Therapy emerges as a valuable tool, facilitating the exploration of our thoughts, emotions, and beliefs, leading us to the resolution we crave. My mission is to offer a secure and supportive space throughout your counseling experience.
