Offering online therapy for prenatal and postpartum women in CA. You thought being a mother would be the happiest time of your life, but you are having some difficulty adjusting to your new role. Trying to conceive, being an expectant mother, or recently giving birth has left you struggling with worries, doubts, sadness, and even guilt. Finding a balance between motherhood, your relationships, and your professional life seems impossible as you’re constantly adjusting to change. You may be finding that problems or issues you’ve faced before are re-surfacing during this life transition. This is common but seldom talked about.

Still, I know that you can overcome your struggles and begin to live your best life. I help women of all ages and life stages rise up to meet life's many challenges. I help clients overcome their struggles with anxiety, depression, chronic stress, feelings of overwhelm, relationship issues, work challenges, and difficulties staying focused and making important decisions. I'm an active, engaging therapist with a supportive and collaborative approach.

The goal of my practice is to help individuals and families navigate life's stressors using mindfulness and acceptance-based treatments that are supported by research. Whether it is adjusting to a new phase in life, coping with a major health issue, or feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns, I aim to help my clients gain a deeper understanding of their struggles, respond to their experience with compassion, and reduce unhelpful ways of reacting so that they can navigate whatever challenges arise.

I have had the pleasure of being in practice for over 7 years, working with clients to help them reach their objectives and goals for therapy. My passion is helping people rebuild relationships, resolve stress related to anxiety and depression, and rediscover the best version of themselves with renewed confidence.

It's not always easy for us to admit that we want help. As much as we like to think that we can do it all ourselves, everyone needs and deserves to have someone in their corner. No matter the disappointment or the distress, the grief or the frustration, the longing for stability and solace is an innate drive that has lead you to seek support.

Your life feels like a broken record. You wake up, go to work, come home, eat dinner, go to bed. Rinse and repeat.

You're starting to question your worth. You compare yourself to others and wonder why they seem to have it all together. You feel like you're not good enough. You're lonely. You're tired of feeling this way. You want to break the cycle and start living your life to the fullest. But you don't know where to start.
