My area of specialization is with the perinatal (pre-conception, pregnancy, postpartum) population, particularly supporting individuals undergoing fertility challenges. It can be isolating for a variety of reasons, which may lead to increased anxiety, depression, and anger. As a person with my own infertility experience, I offer a safe space of understanding, where I "know the language." My goal is to build an empathetic and trustworthy relationship to offer support with self-advocacy, validation, and personal challenge to ensure you have the information and calm you seek.

“The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are.”--Unknown The decision to seek help is one that is often arrived at after long periods of suffering. We so often cling to what is familiar, even when what is familiar is causing us and those around us tremendous pain. We go to great lengths to avoid coming face to face with our vulnerability, and unknowingly prolong our suffering despite our best efforts to master it. For many of us, we simply do what we know, choosing the familiarity of pain over the inherently fear-inducing path of change. Simply stated--change is hard. While change is inevitably challenging, it does not have to be undertaken alone. Finding a qualified therapist to support you through this process can make a significant difference in both the outcome and the process.

If you’re here, you’ve likely already seen several profiles, so I will skip the clichés. How do I differ? I am a systemic & relational therapist, and my focus is to view problems in a way that includes the intricate & larger influences of our past, beliefs, cultures, and upbringing. After all, we are shaped by where we come from and that informs much of how we navigate this world & our relationships. This distinctive therapeutic lens creates space for more context and a greater potential for healing – through mutual understanding, new meaning-making, and feeling “heard” & “seen” by others. I work w/ individuals, partners & families.
