Life transitions, reproductive health challenges, and the emotional demands of motherhood can leave you feeling lost, overwhelmed, or unsure of where to turn. Whether you’re navigating fertility concerns, dealing with the grief of pregnancy loss, or struggling with the emotional weight of postpartum changes, you deserve a safe space to process your feelings and reconnect with yourself. I specialize in women's reproductive mental health, supporting you through challenges like birth trauma, fertility issues, abortion, pregnancy loss, and postpartum struggles.

I also have particular experience in addressing issues such as anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges, with a strong focus on supporting women during life transitions. My approach combines evidence-based therapies such as CBT and solution-focused therapy to help you make sense of your emotions and find your path forward with clarity and resilience.

I know reaching out can be hard, especially when feeling vulnerable. My goal is to make you feel truly heard and understood. Together, we'll create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your feelings and build the strength to heal. I’m here when you’re ready—let’s take the next step together.
