SPECIALIZED SUPPORT
Support for the Whole Journey
Motherhood touches every part of your life - your identity, your relationships, your body, your sense of who you are outside of everyone else's needs. You don't have to carry that alone. I offer therapy built around whatever stage you're in - trying to conceive, pregnancy, the newborn haze, or the mental load of parenting through perimenopause - with tools that fit what you're actually going through, not generic advice to just relax and enjoy it.
Perinatal OCD & Intrusive Thoughts
Unwanted, disturbing thoughts about your baby that terrify you precisely because you'd never act on them. You are not a danger to your child, and you are not alone in this.

You're capable, thoughtful and loving. You research everything because you care so deeply about getting it right and being able to take care of others.
But you are exhausted. You feel depleted and wish your brain would just give you a break.
The anxiety isn’t just about overthinking and worrying. It is stealing the moments with your kids because your mind is somewhere else. It’s causing you to question your instincts, your decisions and whether you are enough. And it leaves you wondering what happened to the version of yourself who used to laugh more, be able to relax, and trust herself.
Maybe you’ve wondered if this is just what motherhood feels like and it’s “not that bad” to ask for help.
This feeling isn’t motherhood and you don’t have to wait until you are falling apart before you deserve support.
What I know is that it doesn’t have to feel this hard and it is possible to trust yourself again. Your fear of failing at motherhood doesn’t have to be in the driver’s seat anymore.
You don’t have to figure this out alone.
If you are tired of feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your thoughts, or like you’ve lost yourself, let’s talk.
