Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Jacksonville Beach, FL

I received both my Bachelors and Masters degrees from Central Michigan University. I have worked in hospital settings as well as private practice. I have had great success with the virtual format and am thankful for such ease for my clients to have sessions without the trouble of travel. I work primarily with teens and women, working to build skills to manage a variety of snuggles.

Becoming a mother can bring a kind of loneliness no one warns you about. Maybe pregnancy is not feeling the way you expected, the postpartum weeks have left you anxious or numb, or you are quietly grieving who you were before. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC) with over 20 years of experience, and supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum, and the transition into motherhood is my passion. I also work with children, teens, adults, and families. Certified in Mind-Body Medicine, I treat emotional and physical well-being as connected, never separate.

Personally and professionally, I pride myself on my rapport with everyone that I encounter. I have genuine and unconditional respect and patience for others. I remain objective and non-judgmental, while still developing close working relationships that are productive and challenging. I specialize in improving thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and outcomes.

I enjoy working in music production, and share music therapy exercises often. I look forward to delving into any interests that you are looking to pursue. It is very important to discover your talents and develop confidence in articulating and communicating thoughts and feelings. These can be great coping skills, recreation, or even a potential career.
