You could really use some help.

You’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted and like no matter how hard you try you’re still not making the progress you need to feel whole.

You’re wondering why you feel so worn out, resentful, and fearful that it will always be this way since this isn’t sustainable.

I have advanced training and education in pregnancy and postpartum issues including being certified in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International. I am passionate about reproductive wellness and I am currently pursing my Ph.D. in Clinical Sexology.

You may feel…

  • Not really sure who you are anymore
  • Uncomfortable in your body
  • You’re never “enough” as a parent, spouse, child or friend

  • Unbalanced managing parenthood, household tasks, and working
  • Anger or crying frequently
  • Lonely and comparing yourself to others
  • You’re barely taking care of yourself
  • Guilty no matter what you do

This isn’t how you envisioned things would be.

People have told you that it takes time to conceive, that pregnancy can be uncomfortable, birth is challenging, or that becoming a parent will change your life. However you weren’t expecting it to be quite this hard.

Counseling for Pregnancy & Postpartum for:

Reproductive Health

The term “perinatal” includes pregnancy and the first year after birth. However I also work with individuals and couples who:

  • Want to have a child and are not able to conceive
  • Are going through fertility assistance treatments such as In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) or Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
  • Are undecided on or in disagreement about whether or not to have a child (or more children)
  • Conflicted over birth control method or sterilization
  • Experienced a loss through miscarriage, abortion, or termination for medical reasons (TFMR)
  • Still feel that issues from the past related to infertility, miscarriage, pregnancy, birth, or postpartum are still unresolved and are carrying forward to the present, no matter how long ago they occurred

I can help.

I am familiar with the all too common struggles that accompany this time of life and have years of experience supporting many men and women through these difficulties.

I love guiding others to get to a place where they feel joy again so they (and the next generation) feel more whole and fulfilled.

You don’t have to go through this alone anymore.
