My Expertise

specialties

Ketamine-Assisted Therapy

KAP has shown promising results in treating postpartum depression (PPD), a condition that affects many women after childbirth.

Integrative Mental Health

Just as Mothers cannot function in isolation, our mental health cannot be separated from the other parts of us that make us whole. As a Certified Integrative Mental Health practitioner, I focus on the whole system.

EMDR Therapy

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can help balance your mood and make you feel much more at peace, as well as improve communication, boundaries, and relationships.
NAVIGATING PARENTHOOD

When a baby is born, so is a mother

You are expecting or just had a baby. Now what? Where do I go from here? Very few things are as transformative as preparing for and experiencing pregnancy, parenthood or both. It requires aspects of ourselves that we didn’t even realize we possessed, pushing us to grow in ways we may not have been prepared for or expected.  So often we feel overwhelmed, inadequate, pressured and like what we do is never enough. It can be a lonely and disheartening experience, but you don’t have to do it alone.

Experiences of trauma from our own childhood or during pregnancy and birth can bubble up and complicate our ability to be fully present with our babies. Other women are impacted by the pain and grief of neonatal loss

Whether you are a birth parent, adopted parent, bonus parent, or caregiver of any kind, your feelings are valid, and giving yourself space to share and problem-solve can be a transformative and healing process.
