Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists in Mason, MI

Currently accepting new virtual and in-person clients. Life can be overwhelming, and we all need support at times. Therapy can be one tool in navigating challenges, improving relationships and strengthening your self-awareness. I'm grateful for the opportunity to provide a safe and nonjudgemental space for clients to process their struggles and explore their potential. I have experience working with adolescents, college students and adults on issues of trauma, anxiety and depression. I enjoy empowering clients through transitional life phases such as adjusting to college, navigating relational or career changes and becoming parents.

I became a therapist because I believe people are pretty incredible. My heart is in supporting and empowering women in navigating their relationship with themselves, their body and food and the messy, meaningful work of living authentically. I specialize in eating disorders/body image, OCD, perinatal anxiety and depression, traumatic birth, miscarriage/infant loss, overcoming perfectionism and anxiety, and sexual trauma. I practice from an anti-racist, LGBTQIA+-affirming, intuitive eating and Health At Every Size-informed foundation and am a certified Perinatal Mental Health clinician (PMH-C).

Are you are dealing with a life transition (birth of baby, postpartum depression, parenting issues, divorce, grief/loss), struggling with anxiety/depression or dealing with boundary issues? Sometimes getting to the next chapter can seem ominous when pain is intense. Transformation is possible…I truly believe it! I have also experienced such as a cancer survivor and more. There is hope, a ‘second chance’ and restoration for you. I have worked as a therapist over 25 years with various situations.

I'm excited to be able to connect with clients from all over Michigan through telehealth, providing therapy from the comfort of your own space. My therapeutic approach is rooted in evidence-based treatments, tailored to your unique needs and experiences. I specialize in stress management, life transitions, women’s issues, perinatal mood disorders, anxiety, and depression. I believe in the power of therapy to help manage life's challenges and transitions, and I'm here to provide the support and tools you need to navigate these times.

Often life’s transitions can be difficult to navigate and we can have barriers, past or present, which inhibit our ability to change and adapt. I believe in the individuals’ ability to change and reconcile ourselves with the challenges and difficulties that life presents.

I specialize in working with individuals in the family-building phase of life, including infertility, pregnancy/post-partum anxiety and depression, surrogacy, as well as supporting all members of the adoption constellation. I have 15+ years experience working with diverse individuals and I hope to create a safe space for you to explore whatever is important to you. I believe we all thrive in spaces where we can be fully known and celebrated for who we truly are and I aim to bring authenticity, curiosity and possibly some humor to our work together.

I am a Christian counselor. I love working with Moms on anxiety, depression, parenting, self esteem, life transitions, and relationship issues. Being a Mom is a wonderful calling that requires ALL of you. It can be so draining and lonely. You don't have to keep walking alone. I'd love to help you on your journey to become more empowered, resilient, and accepting of the wonderful person God made you to be.

Are you tired of the same argument over and over again? Feeling unheard in your relationship? Frustrated because no matter what you do, you just can’t get it right with your partner? Missing the intimacy and connection with the person you love the most? The most important relationships in our lives can be the source of some of our greatest joy, as well as our greatest pain. It’s no coincidence that our most important relationships can often take the most work, though this work can be enriching and productive. Now more than ever, resilient, connected relationships can have a profound effect on mental health and well-being.

People are sometimes challenged by turbulent emotions, transitions, losses or chronic mood issues. The day to day experience of emotional distress or an underlying sense of uneasiness affect vitality and are difficult to endure over time. Verbal dialogue within a relationship designed for you to freely express yourself, explore feelings and discover unconscious factors impacting you describes the change process of psychotherapy. I have seen many individuals over the years not only have symptom relief but find new paths while shedding patterns of disabling emotions, thoughts and behavior.

I appreciate all those who take the step and seek out assistance during stressful and dicult times. I plan to provide a safe space and meet those where they are at to assist in growth and gaining skills to overcome life challenges. I believe in taking a strength based approach and will work to identify the best ways to reach your goals.

I believe psychotherapy should be supportive and empowering. The therapeutic relationship is critical to growth and change. Having strong therapeutic supports can strengthen a person and free them to find connection in the midst of confusion, overcome difficult life challenges, face their fears or move past a barrier that seemed insurmountable.

Life can feel stressful and overwhelming at times. We might struggle with everyday stressors like work and family obligations. We might face mental health concerns like depression and anxiety. Sometimes, our past, family of origin issues, or trauma catch up with us. Life's complexities can leave us feeling overwhelmed and stressed. Daily stressors such as work and family obligations can weigh heavily on our minds. Sometimes, the burdens of our past, family of origin issues, or traumatic experiences come knocking at our door. Therapy offers a beacon of hope in navigating these challenges.

I know what it's like to feel lost, confused, and as though you're stuck at a crossroads with no directions. I also know how important connection and understanding are in those times. I believe the beauty of therapy is how it can disentangle the confusion, revealing profound change, empowerment, and freedom. I can work with individuals or couples encountering a variety of concerns. I am particularly experienced to help clients navigating through relationship issues such as codependency, boundaries, infidelity, mood disorders, and personality disorders. I am drawn to help women recovering from abusive relationships and trauma.
