The transition to motherhood is one of the most emotionally strenuous times in the life of a woman and her family. Preparation for this life-changing event is key to good mental health and a smooth transition. I specialize in women's mental health, around pregnancy and birth. I am a past president of Postpartum Support International, and current member of Maternal Mental Health Now in Los Angeles.and the statewide California Maternal Mental Health Collaborative as a core member of the training faculty.
I specialize in women's reproductive mental health. My practice focus is the assessment and treatment of perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. I also deal with other pregnancy and birth related concerns like infertility, pregnancy loss and adoption.
Becoming a mother is one of the most important life transitions you may ever experience. There are many myths about how you should feel, what you should do and how you should act. I can help you to debunk many of those myths and normalize this understandably stressful transition to motherhood.
