I have been in private practice for 20 years with my specialty focusing on individuals resolving historic traumas and women balancing all of the complications of womanhood in a fast paced, demanding world. My style is informed from my diverse experience. I have worked in adolescent residential treatment, FBI consulting, an expert witness and a graduate school professorship; all the while working with my private practice clients. In the last several years, I have been sought out as a corporate consultant and speaker to discuss how our negative experiences and traumas shape our behaviors as high intensity professionals.
The untapped magnificence I see in my clients never ceases to inspire and amaze me. Anyone who is willing to do hard work is already a gift to this World! I've grown bored of many things in my life but this work....never!

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Charlotte
Finding postpartum therapists in Charlotte starts with choosing someone who has experience with perinatal mental health concerns. Postpartum support can include care for postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, pregnancy loss, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for specialties that match your needs, such as perinatal mental health counseling, postpartum counseling, pregnancy therapy, or therapy for new parents. A perinatal mental health certification, often listed as PMH-C, can also signal added training in care during pregnancy and after birth.
Charlotte has many therapy options across neighborhoods like Uptown, South End, NoDa, Dilworth, and Ballantyne, which can make it harder to narrow the search. For new parents, practical details matter. An unpredictable schedule, infant care, physical recovery, commute time, and appointment format can all shape which therapist is a usable fit. Virtual care can make access easier when leaving home is harder, while in-person sessions may work better if you prefer a dedicated space. Read therapist bios before booking to understand their approach, session style, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Charlotte can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated cost before you book. Headway helps you search for postpartum mental health therapists in Charlotte who are accepting new patients, and many accept insurance. You can compare therapists by specialty, availability, session format, and bio, then book directly when you’re ready.
