I feel that creating a safe and genuine therapeutic relationship will lead to positive change and growth. My expertise is working with individuals during the child bearing years. There are a wide variety of experiences people face in the times of growing a family, including maternal/paternal anxiety, depression, mood changes; infant loss; role changes; work adjustment; unplanned pregnancies; health complications; infertility; sibling adjustment; and relationship stress. Having a safe place to talk and find ways to cope can be tremendously helpful. I also have knowledge and passion for working with professionals who are experiencing burn out, strain, and difficulty with decision making.
​I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years and bring extensive experience supporting individuals and families through life transitions and personal challenges. ​​I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where clients can deepen self-understanding, build resilience, and move toward meaningful and lasting change.​​ My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each person’s unique needs.
I draw from multiple treatment modalities to create an individualized therapeutic experience that supports healing, growth, and emotional well-being.​My background includes specialized training in Infant Mental Health and Parent-Child Relationships. I am passionate about helping clients understand the neurobiology of stress, trauma, and relaxation, and I often incorporate mindfulness, meditation, and nervous system regulation into therapy.​My therapeutic orientation tends to be more psychodynamic than strictly behavioral, with a strong emphasis on attachment-based approaches that foster healthy emotional experiences and relational healing. Depending on a client’s goals and needs, I integrate a variety of evidence-based and insight-oriented approaches, either independently or in combination, including:​
