There is a curious habit that I've noticed, especially when working with teens, that clients will mostly only work on the "issue of the week." This can have numerous benefits and can also delay the client's progress on any underlying concerns or patterns. Ideally, once a client has agreed to their treatment goals, they continue to take attainable steps towards that goal in therapy and in their daily life. When a client feels comfortable with their therapist to share their thoughts, emotions, and vulnerabilities, then deeper work can happen.

Are you a young adult woman experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem issues, and even trauma? Self-discovery and creating/finding identity are goals I work best with. In my most recent job, I have found that domestic violence survivors and women who experience issues specific to being a woman have piqued my interest. As a therapist, the most rewarding thing is to guide women toward embracing themselves for who they are, heal past wounds, and empower them to live fully and authentically. I believe I have been given a purpose in this world to serve others, and that's what I was created to do.

People seek counseling for any number of reasons and I consider it a privilege that I might be invited into a client's life to provide support during times of change, healing, and growth. My approach involves a warm and relaxed attitude towards counseling, truly listening to your story, non-judgement, focusing on strengths, and helping to shift the negative beliefs that are preventing you from living a happier and fuller life.

Every day seems overwhelming, and often finding a few minutes to focus on your own needs seems impossible, it can feel as if you may never be happy again. Some days it takes everything you have to get through the day, and you wonder, "is this the best my life is going to be?" In the morning it takes all that you have to get out of bed, and at night, you lay awake, unable to sleep, due to worry, fear, and feeling things are just hopeless. It can be scary to reach out to a counselor, you just want to find someone who understands and doesn't judge. Experiencing depression or anxiety is nothing to be ashamed of, it isn't your fault.

Having experienced infertility, pregnancy loss, religious trauma, and grief myself, I also particularly welcome clients who are struggling with these issues.
Have you spent your life overachieving, working hard, taking care of others, doing all the right things, and yet thing aren't working out how you expected them to? Are your relationships very often one-sided, where you give a lot but no one takes care of you? I see you. My practice focuses on those who have "done all the right things," and are wondering why things are still so hard. Unfortunately, being hard on ourselves, working hard, achieving all the things, and taking care of everyone around us doesn't often lead to the sort of healing and peace we long for.

When the the decision fatigue is real- feeling overwhelmed with all the responsibilities of adulting? Trying to find a good work/life balance? Finding yourself stuck in a cycle of being drawn to all the wrong people? Having a hard time prioritizing your life, being assertive, and setting boundaries? Life can feel like it's just too much. You want to do better but when you stop and try, it’s all too overwhelming. You may even feel stuck. If you're a parent, that adds another extra layer of "too much," exhaustion, and stress.

Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists
What are the most effective ways to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns?
The most effective way to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns is by finding a therapist who has prior experience helping other patients overcome the challenge being faced. For example, a marriage and family therapist may have experience helping couples adjust to their new relationship dynamic. An anxiety specialist may have experience helping with phobias or illness anxiety related to the child’s health. A depression specialist may have experience treating postpartum depression.
When should I seek treatment for prenatal or postpartum concerns?
Pregnancy and the postpartum period involve intense physical and mental changes; a degree of upset and instability is normal. However, if these changes impair daily functioning, it may be time to seek help. This distinction is pertinent for postpartum depression: A period of teariness, irritability, and distress is difficult but normal in the one to two weeks after childbirth (sometimes called the “baby blues.”) But if feelings of sadness and hopelessness persist beyond that period, the person should seek treatment.
How do I manage worries during pregnancy or the postnatal period?
A therapist can help patients develop the tools they need to manage anxieties during or after pregnancy. Cognitive behavioral therapy can help people identify and reframe harmful patterns of thought, and change their behaviors. Other techniques and skills can allow people to develop acceptance, psychological flexibility, self-compassion, communication skills, and more.
Are there specific medications for postpartum depression?
In 2019, the FDA approved the first medication designed to treat postpartum depression. The medication is called brexanolone and is delivered intravenously by a medical professional over the course of a few days. However, typical antidepressants, which are more accessible, can also treat postpartum depression. The disorder is often best treated through a combination of medication and therapy.
