Perinatal Mental Health Counseling is therapy that focus on your reproductive journey, whatever path that may take. The term “Perinatal” means anything from the time of conception (or before!) through til the first year Postpartum (or a little beyond!).

I am here to support you, and meet you where you are. I specialize in Perinatal Mental Health, but I often find that we end up exploring so much more. Life, love, relationships with self and others - it’s all on the table. I promise to find the growing edge - where we can lean into the unknown, and honor your comfort level at the same time.
Common areas of focus include infertility, pregnancy, birth trauma, and the Fourth Trimester, or the early postpartum days, as well as new parenthood and stepping into your identity as a mother.

I am a supportive, encouraging, and present individual. I do not shy away from your worst moments, days, thoughts, or feelings. I believe that you have the power within you to make it through this, and I am honored to be alongside you while you find your “new normal.”

Practically speaking, sessions are 50 minutes in length and typically occur once a week or once every other week. Our first session, or Intake session, will be 90 minutes in length. At the end of our intake, we will have a road map for where we would like to travel together on this journey of getting better acquainted with yourself.

I operate from a Cognitive Behavioral, Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems, Emotion Focused, and Person-Centered counseling perspective. I engage with clients using an eclectic blend of evidence-based therapies and modalities, striving to meet the individual where they are, with their unique needs as a human being.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate with a degree in Couples and Family Counseling.

I have been awarded a PMH-C, or Perinatal Mental Health Certification, through Postpartum Support International. In order to obtain this certification you must complete extensive advanced training in Maternal Mental Health, have at least 2 years of experience working with perinatal clients, and are required to maintain regular continuing education. I am versed in Perinatal Mental Health, Perinatal Grief and Loss, Perinatal OCD, Perinatal Birth Trauma, and more.

Prior to my graduate education, I was working as a social worker providing in-home services to mothers and children through the Family Empowerment Program.

I have additional experience working with children doing Play Therapy, individuals experiencing Interpersonal Violence, those experiencing acute grief and loss, including caregiver fatigue, and more.

In total, I have 10+ years of experience working with mothers and families. I am passionate about Perinatal, Prenatal, and Postpartum mental health, and wellness for all. I believe everyone deserves to feel held, seen, and cared for at their most vulnerable moments, including you.

Individual Counseling Sessions are $175 per 50 minute session & $190 per 90 minute clinical intake. Forms of payment accepted include cash, check, or credit/debit card.
