You are a strong woman feeling overwhelmed navigating complex health issues such as chronic illness, chronic pain, anxiety, infertility or pregnancy loss. You are an intelligent, high achieving woman who is dealing with the grief of a diagnosis, pregnancy after loss, infertility or chronic illness. You are juggling it all: a career, family, a romantic partner, friends, dating and your health. You want to figure out a way to not just survive with women's health issues but to thrive and live your life fully each day. You need support, a place to process your grief and coping skills to walk through this difficult situation.

I specialize in working with women navigating complex health issues such as chronic illness, chronic pain, infertility, pregnancy after loss, anxiety, grief and loss.

I love working with women just like you because I've been there. As your therapist who has navigated life with chronic illness and pain, I can provide space, emotional support, real life tools and solution focused techniques to improve your day to day. Stop surviving. Start thriving. Reach out today for your free 15 minute consultation.
