I am a high-energy clinician specializing in working with anyone who is preconception planning, who would like support during pregnancy or postpartum, or who has experienced fertility challenges and/or pregnancy loss. I use a combination of supportive talk therapy, mindfulness, and problem-solving skills to ensure you feel supported, validated & empowered.

I enjoy supporting children, adults, and families as they navigate major life transitions, like pregnancy, blended families, and moving. I also work closely with chronic illness and chronic pain patients. My current research focuses on the ways in which healthcare providers can be better trained to support patients, avoiding medical trauma and gaslighting. I specialize in the use of drama therapy, a creative and embodied approach. Drama therapy uses play, metaphor, role, and story to help people of all ages, identities, and abilities to create meaningful change. Using a dramatic approach to therapy makes the process less scary and more approachable. By stepping into another role or placing our personal stories in metaphor, we feel safer to discuss difficult topics and explore new ways of feeling and thinking.

Seeking help can feel intimidating and most think, “Do I really need to speak to a stranger about this problem?” Taking that first step though can help you to learn some strategies for a lifetime. Having been a social worker for over 25 years, my approach is an eclectic one. My practice includes working with people who have a history of perinatal issues, death/dying, DV, and substance use. I work with people from the ages of 4 through seniors.

My approach is down to earth, genuine, and supportive. To me, modern therapy is about real people having real conversations; so while I use evidence-based clinical practices, I make therapy feel like coffee with a good friend who helps guide you towards solutions to your problems for the world we live in today. I don't believe in a "one size fits all" approach to therapy - I take an eclectic and person-centered approach to each mom I serve.
