The journey of motherhood can stir up many unexpected feelings and challenges for women and their partners. Starting from preconception all the way to the empty nest experience, it is not uncommon to struggle with anxious thoughts, strong emotions, a lost sense of self or disconnection in our personal relationships. If you want to enjoy your pregnancy or motherhood experience, learn different ways to cope with the heavy mental load, communicate better with your partner or process feelings of loss when this journey does not go as expected, please know that you are not alone and I can help.
I specialize in working with all aspects of the motherhood journey from fertility/pregnancy issues, postpartum adjustment, parenting challenges and reclaiming your life after children. In addition to working with moms, I also love supporting and addressing the unique needs of men/partners along this path as well.
We all hope to live a happy and fulfilling life, yet it's not uncommon to feel as if our relationships, self-image and daily existence are not what we'd like them to be. Utilizing an authentic, compassionate and sometimes humorous approach, my goal is to provide you hope, guidance and encouragement as you seek to make impactful shifts in your life.
