More on approach.

My goal is to help healing unfold in a warm, safe, and encouraging space—by collaborating with you.

My approach is integrative, trauma-informed, strengths-based, and maybe most importantly, crafted to meet your needs. Together, we’ll work with evidence-based practices such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), emotionally focused therapy (EFT) and tap into the mind-body connection.

We will be curious; we will zoom in and pan out. We will process. We’re likely to laugh at times. We will softly separate from what is not working for you right now while practicing new tools to improve how you cope, working towards balance, peace, and contentment. I will help you uncover what hurts, hold it gently, and make way for change.

(a little) More on me.

As a young professional, I worked to empower women around the world, and went into this field to pursue perinatal mental health. Unexpectedly, I gained personal experience in this realm - fertility struggles, miscarriage, birth trauma - which gave me deeper insight and stoked my passion for maternal mental health.

Outside of this space, you can find me with my family, our dog Winnie, ideally exploring the outdoors (fancifully with an ice cream cone in one hand and a coffee in the other). Yoga is a release, and if you’re open to it, you’ll find we incorporate elements of the somatic experience, mindfulness, and meditation into our work.

    "This is such a tremendous gift that you offer and you have a remarkable capacity for creating a beautiful, empathy-filled space."

  • "Thank you so much for creating this wonderful space for all of us to feel safe and share. This has been a truly great experience and I am walking away with many new ways of dealing with infertility in my life."

  • "You have helped me find the pathway out of that “stuck and dark” feeling and led to the possibility for me to have the rest of my life open back up and to find beauty in what I do have."

It takes courage to cultivate peace. Seeds sprout with unbelievable life force despite layers of heavy earth; you have what you need within.
