*Waitlist for new clients* My primary clinical focus is on women's mental health and I specialize in helping clients with navigating symptoms of anxiety, ADHD, maternal mental health (challenges experienced in any stage of motherhood), perinatal mental health (pregnancy/postpartum), and life transitions. I believe in a collaborative and individualized treatment approach, as effective therapy is not based on a "one size fits all" model. We'll work together to determine the best plan for therapy specific to you, and I will provide support, education, and resources to help guide and empower you throughout your journey!
YOU are the expert on your own life experience and everyone has the potential to live a healthier and more fulfilling life. Challenges can discourage us and disrupt our ability to rise to our full potential. I will assist you with learning how to navigate difficulties using my education and experience, to promote healthy change and empower growth.
The therapeutic relationship is essential to the counseling process. If you believe that we would be a good fit, please reach out to me! I would love to hear from you and explore the potential of working together! Taking the first step towards pursuing therapy is not easy, and I'm proud of you for prioritizing yourself and taking action! YOU can do this!
