I have a strong interest and passion for working with clients who are navigating signifiant life transitions and discovering new roles and relationships to self and to others

Perinatal Mood Disorders

Currently, my practice focuses on treating perinatal mood and anxiety disorders and as well as the transition to parenthood.  Pregnancy and the postpartum period can be an exciting time, and it can also bring up unexpected feelings that can lead to shame and sometimes isolation if not addressed. I use my clinical experience and advanced training in perinatal mental health to offer supportive psychotherapy that is focused on helping clients navigate this period and recover from symptoms that frequently arise during pregnancy and the postpartum period. This includes adoptive parents and partners, as they are just as vulnerable as gestational parents, an often overlooked. During our sessions, we will work on addressing symptoms and developing coping skills so that you may feel more like yourself again.

College and Graduate Students

My practice also focuses on providing therapy to college and graduate students. While college and graduate school can be an inspiring time, there are many factors (identiy issues, social anxiety, academic pressures, relationship problems) that can also make it a challenging time to navigate. I use my clinical experience in college settings and in private practice to help college students process feelings and develop coping skills so they can feel more competent and confident.

My years of experience has taught me that the fit between a therapist and the client is a significant factor in whether a client feels their therapy is helpful. I use my intuition to tailor my therapeutic approach to each individual client so that we both feel that we are moving forward in a way that feels supportive and productive.
