You should know that I truly care about who you are, not just the symptoms you’re experiencing. I understand that reaching out for mental health support can feel intimidating, especially if you’ve ever felt judged, misunderstood, or dismissed in the past. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and respected from the very first conversation.

I approach every person with compassion, patience, and curiosity. I take the time to understand your story, your stressors, and what matters most to you, so your care is never one-size-fits-all. I believe healing happens best when you feel supported and involved in your treatment, and I see our work as a true partnership.

I am committed to using evidence-based practices while also honoring your lived experience. Whether we are focusing on medication, coping strategies, or long-term growth, I will always be honest, supportive, and collaborative.

Above all, you should know that you are not alone here, and your well-being is my priority.

Life can look perfectly fine on the outside while feeling overwhelming underneath. You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Whether you're feeling stuck, constantly overthinking, burned out, or repeating patterns you can't seem to break, therapy can be a place to finally make sense of what's going on.

I bring curiosity, honesty, and practical insight into every session. Rather than giving generic advice or simply asking, "How does that make you feel?" we'll work together to understand what's keeping you stuck, identify what's actually changeable, and build strategies that fit your life. I'll challenge you when it's helpful, support you when it's needed, and create a space where you can be completely yourself without worrying about being judged or getting it "right."

Happy patient looking away

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 Austin, TX

Finding postpartum therapists in Austin starts with looking for care that matches your specific needs after pregnancy or birth. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some people also look for a prenatal depression therapist or a counselor for pregnancy before birth. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience in perinatal mental health, postpartum depression counseling, or the PMH-C credential, which signals specialized training in perinatal mental health.

Austin has many therapists across neighborhoods and nearby areas, which can make it harder to narrow your options. For new parents, practical details often matter as much as specialty fit. Consider appointment availability, scheduling flexibility, and whether virtual sessions fit better with infant care, physical recovery, or an unpredictable schedule. Reading therapist bios can help you see how each person describes their approach, communication style, and experience with postpartum depression therapy, postpartum anxiety, and care for new moms.

Therapy in Austin can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before booking. Headway makes it easier to find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, offer upfront cost estimates, and are accepting new patients. You can compare therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
