I’m a therapist who supports individuals and couples through pregnancy, postpartum, and the transition into parenthood. As a mom myself, I understand that this season can bring incredible joy, but also stress, anxiety, overwhelm, relationship changes, and emotions that can be difficult to talk about.

I work with women, men, and couples to better understand what they’re experiencing, strengthen communication, and navigate this life transition together. Whether you’re struggling personally, trying to support your partner, or feeling disconnected as a couple, you don’t have to figure it all out alone.

My goal is to provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can feel heard, supported, and understood
