While I have experience treating a variety of mental health problems, my passion lies in working with pregnant/postpartum women and partners who are dealing with depression, anxiety, and/or the relationship challenges that often accompany the transition into parenthood. My warm and authentic style facilitates a genuine connection with clients – aiding in healing and discovery of new solutions. Additionally, I have personal experience with pregnancy/postpartum depression and anxiety and am familiar with the added strain that can accompany caring for a high needs baby. I believe this allows me to approach counseling with deep understanding and empathy. Reduced rates available.
