To do this, I use the best available research to develop integrative, empirically-supported treatment plans to address their concerns and help them move toward their identified goals. Throughout treatment, I value working with clients in a way that is interactive and transparent, and I create a therapeutic environment that is genuinely supportive, empathetic, and nonjudgmental.

In our sessions, I strive for you to feel seen, heard and supported.

Life is full of ongoing changes and transitions. Youth today are faced with a myriad of challenges, as technology has advanced and schedules have become increasingly hectic. Trying to build a family does not always come easily, and infertility is much more than a medical diagnosis. It is a life-altering event that has effects on every aspect of one’s life. Pregnancy and the birth of a new baby is often viewed as a time full of joy, love, and bonding; however, this time can also be stressful and difficult leading to approximately 1 in 7 moms and 1 in 10 dads experiencing significant levels of anxiety and/or depression.

Are you struggling with the emotional rollercoaster of infertility? Are you pregnant or postpartum and feeling overwhelmed with motherhood?
