(she/her/hers)

Our earliest relationships shape how we see ourselves and connect with others. When these bonds feel unsafe, it can leave lasting wounds. In our work together, we’ll create a safe space for you to explore your story, tend to wounded parts of yourself, and connect to your Authentic Self.

I am especially passionate about individuals and couples as they are deciding whether or not to grow their family, as well as navigate the complexities of fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and parenthood. These tender seasons of life tend to bring up our own attachment stories and wounds- together, we can help you sit with these life transitions in a way that brings healing and growth to you and your family.

I am a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Professional as well as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. In my work, I ensure that we hold space for and value all of the different parts of you.

My goal as a therapist is to support you in connecting to your authentic self, feel aligned with your inherent self-worth, and feel confident as you work towards the goals that are important to you.

Value-driven work

I know how complicated and intense the attachment work during these tender seasons of growing your family can be. In my work, I hold strong values around authenticity, compassion, acceptance.

I believe the therapeutic relationship plays an essential role in healing, and make sure to hold space for the true you in our work together.

Healing happens in safe, trusting relationships

You don’t have to carry everything alone. Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to perform or get it “right” You get to be real here- messy, unsure, and still deeply worthy of care. Together, we’ll create a relationship rooted in safety and trust so that your nervous system can finally soften- and healing can begin.

Your story deserves to be held with compassion

Whether you’re navigating fertility, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, or parenting- this season can stir up so much. I hold space for the layers: your past experiences, your grief, your love, your overwhelm, and your desire to do things differently. You deserve a therapist who honors your story with tenderness, not judgment.

Your wholeness is already within you- we’re just making room for it

You’re not broken. You’ve been doing your best with the tools you’ve had. In our work together, we’ll explore patterns and beliefs that may have once protected you but are now holding you back- especially the pressure to do everything perfectly. This work is about reconnecting with your inner wisdom, building self-trust, and finding balance- so you can care for yourself as deeply as you care for others.

I see acceptance and equality as a necessary component to therapy. I strive to be LGBTQIA+ affirming, body accepting, sex positive, anti-racist, and culturally competent in my personal life and professional work.

My therapeutic style

In therapy, I offer a warm, steady presence and a space where all parts of you are welcome. I draw from Internal Family Systems (IFS), narrative therapy, as well as somatic and mindfulness-based approaches to help you gently explore the deeper layers of your experience. That means we might get curious about the stories you’ve carried, the protective parts that try to keep everything in control, and the places in your body that hold unspoken emotions. I believe healing happens not by forcing change, but by creating enough safety and compassion that change can naturally unfold. Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels supportive and attuned- helping you reconnect with your authentic self, inner grounding, and wisdom.
