New to Grow
I work with women and women-identifying individuals who are navigating anxiety, life transitions, identity shifts, reproductive mental health, and the emotional weight of holding everything together. Many of my clients look like they’re managing well on the outside, but inside they feel overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, burned out, or unsure of what they need next. I especially enjoy supporting clients through young adulthood, relationships, career stress, infertility, pregnancy, postpartum changes, motherhood, parenthood, and midlife transitions. As a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Professional (PMH-C), I have specialized training in reproductive mental health, including infertility, pregnancy, postpartum mental health, and the emotional complexities of family building. My approach is warm, collaborative, and human. I draw from CBT, EMDR, and other evidence-based tools, but I don’t believe therapy should feel rigid or one-size-fits-all. I want our sessions to feel like a real conversation, where you feel supported, understood, and gently challenged when it’s helpful. You don’t need to have the “right” words or a perfectly clear reason for starting therapy. You can bring whatever feels most important, even if it feels messy or hard to explain. My role is to help guide the process, notice patterns, offer practical tools, and support you in moving toward more clarity, healing, and connection with yourself.
In our first session, we’ll spend time getting to know each other and beginning to understand what brought you here. I’ll ask about what life looks like right now, what has been feeling hard, what you’ve been carrying, and what you’re hoping might feel different. You don’t need to come in with everything perfectly organized or know exactly where to start. Most people don’t. That’s completely okay. I’ll help guide the conversation so we can begin making sense of where you’ve been, where you are now, and where you’d like to go. The first session is really about starting to build a fuller picture of you, your story, your strengths, your relationships, and what kind of support might feel most helpful moving forward.
I bring warmth, honesty, and an active presence to my sessions. I’m engaged and responsive in the room, and I want therapy to feel like a real conversation, not a place where you are left talking into the void. I balance support with gentle challenge. Sometimes the most helpful thing is to slow down, make space, and help you feel heard. Other times, it may be more helpful for me to ask direct questions, offer a new perspective, or notice patterns that may be keeping you stuck. My style is flexible, collaborative, and human. I try to meet each client where they are, while also helping them move toward the clarity, healing, or change they’re looking for.
I work with women and women-identifying individuals navigating the many transitions, challenges, and identity shifts that happen throughout life. I especially enjoy supporting clients through young adulthood, relationships, career stress, infertility, pregnancy, postpartum changes, motherhood, parenthood, and midlife transitions. I am certified in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International and have specialized training in reproductive mental health, including infertility. Many of my clients are used to being the person who holds everything together, but inside they may feel anxious, overwhelmed, burned out, or unsure of what they need. My goal is to create a warm, supportive space where you can feel understood, explore what feels heavy, reconnect with yourself, and move toward healing, clarity, and meaningful change.

I identify as
Person-centered (Rogerian)
My approach is integrative, collaborative, and person-centered. I draw from CBT and other evidence-based practices while tailoring therapy to each client’s needs, goals, and pace. I believe clients should feel safe, respected, and in control of their own process. In sessions, clients are encouraged to bring what feels most important, and I help guide the work through reflection, support, skill-building, and gentle exploration of patterns that may be keeping them stuck.
