Parenting can be exhausting, overwhelming, isolating, and HARD!
Whether it's adjusting to a change in identity, managing postpartum anxiety or depression, being pulled in every direction, or experiencing changes in your relationships, this period of life can feel isolating and overwhelming.
The good news is you are not alone and things can get better! As a perinatal psychologist, I have advanced training in perinatal mental health and I have helped many parents find themselves again and thrive in this stage of life!
I am here to help support mamas (and dads!) through all the ups and downs of parenthood! I would love to be a part of your journey. I know taking time for yourself can seem impossible right now, but investing in yourself has amazing impacts on your baby and your whole family! You deserve to be prioritized!
You have come to the right place!
Together we can build Clarity and Direction in the Chaos of Parenting!
Let's take the next step together
Feeling overwhelmed by the sudden changes in your life is completely normal. As a perinatal psychologist (and mom myself), I understand the unique challenges new parents face. Whether you're dealing with sleepless nights, breastfeeding challenges, or just trying to find a moment for yourself, seeking help is a brave step. I'm here to provide you with a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your feelings and develop effective coping strategies tailored to your needs.
You deserve to rediscover yourself
In the whirlwind of diaper changes, feedings, and sleepless nights, it's easy to lose sight of who you are outside of being a parent. Balancing your new identity with your personal aspirations can be challenging. My approach integrates proven therapeutic techniques to help you reconnect with your passions, set healthy boundaries, and carve out essential time for self-care. Together, we can help you thrive both as an individual and a parent.
Partners you deserve mental health support too
The journey to parenthood isn't just about mothers. Partners experience a myriad of emotions and adjustments too. From feeling helpless while watching a loved one struggle with postpartum depression to managing the pressures of being a supportive partner and a new parent, this time can be equally taxing. I love working with dads or other partners in therapy. I provide support for them to voice their concerns, share their experiences, and address anything that may come up during these transformative times.
I see you and you're not alone.
Are you covered in spit up, overwhelmed, and feeling beyond tired. Maybe still trying to process your birth? ​You wanted to be a parent your whole life, but this is not what you pictured.​​
I get it, I have been there, and it's hard!​ I support and empower parents as they find themselves, redefine relationships, and learn to thrive in this chapter of life.
