As your therapist, I want to welcome you to our therapy space. I strive

to provide you with a safe and compassionate environment where you

can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment.

We will focus on cultivating self-compassion, an understanding

approach towards yourself during times of struggle or difficulty.

Together, we will work towards fostering a deeper sense of self. We will

focus on key components like self-kindness, common humanity, and

mindfulness. I believe in the value of shared human experiences.

Therapeutic interventions may include and are not limited to guided

meditation, cognitive reframing, and other creative expressive

therapies. We will explore your experiences with warmth and empathy,

fostering a deeper connection to your inner wisdom and resilience.

I work best with driven people experiencing a big change. Perhaps, despite your best efforts, things aren’t working out as you’d hoped. Or perhaps you’ve gotten all you wanted and it doesn’t satisfy. I work often with D1 athletes & pros (as well as their family members). I love supporting the romantic partners of people in the public eye. Though I often work with athletes I am not a Sports Psych. In fact, I don’t even follow sports! I’m here for the rest of your life and identity.

Therapist

Most people arrive at therapy carrying something they've never said out loud. My job is to make saying it possible by being someone worth trusting with it.

I've been a practicing counselor for over a decade. I also teach and supervise the next generation of therapists, which keeps me sharp and current. But experience and credentials aren't what makes the work good. What makes therapy work is that I'm a real person in the room with you: direct when that helps, quiet when that helps more. I will never ask you to do something I'm not willing to do myself.

My education isn't limited to my degrees. My clients have taught me more about resilience, compassion, and what it means to live fully than any program did. I hold that as sacred, and I take you as seriously as I take that.

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Louisville

Searching for postpartum therapists in Louisville starts with finding someone whose training fits the kind of support you want. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some therapists focus on perinatal mental health, and a PMH-C credential can signal specialized training in care during pregnancy and the postpartum period. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, relevant experience, and approaches that match your needs.

Louisville offers a range of postpartum counseling options, but practical details can shape which therapist is a usable fit. New parents may need flexible appointment times, virtual sessions, or a therapist who can account for infant care, physical recovery, and changing schedules. Virtual care can make it easier to meet with a postpartum depression specialist when getting to an office is harder. Before booking, read therapist bios to see how they describe their work with postpartum concerns, what session structure may look like, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Postpartum therapy in Louisville can be expensive without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who are accepting new patients and lets you check insurance coverage and estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can compare postpartum therapists in Louisville by specialty, availability, appointment format, and insurance fit, then book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
