I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for working with new parents, peripartum (pregnancy through postpartum) and all types of trauma.
I am also a mother of 3 children and understand first hand the difficulties of managing mental health at various stages of life.
First session
During our first session we will review completed forms, discuss stressors, challenges and focus on your goals for treatment. Getting to know each other and feeling comfortable with your therapist are predicators of positive therapy outcomes. It’s my job to put myself out of a job.
Strengths
I am comfortable listening and supporting clients through their current stressors and processing past traumas. I am insightful and inclusive of patterns a client may need help with, both big and small.
Ideal clients
I specialize in supporting peripartum parents from pregnancy through postpartum. I also specialize in EMDR to help with trauma including birth trauma, fertility issues, childhood trauma, first responder trauma and redirecting negative cognitions.
Treatment methods
EMDR
I have been trained in EMDR for over ten years and have worked with a variety of clients with their trauma.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use CBT to work on supporting my clients with shifting their thoughts, feelings and behaviors to be their best confident self.
