MY APPROACH
I think you will find that I'm not your average therapist. I am fully invested in my client's and always show up in an authentic and energized way.
Understanding that every woman’s story and experiences is unique; my first step is to create a connection with you that feels safe and real.
I am here to hold space for you ... to be vulnerable, to unload and to process the"stuff" you've been avoiding (it's ok, we all do it).
I will always encourage you to be curious about your inner thoughts and patterns. Together we will identify which ones serve you in this season and which ones are no longer necessary.
During our sessions we will focus on the present, process the past (yes we need to go there) and make progress toward the things you want to experience in the future.
Therapy is hard, but there is nothing harder than what you are already going through.
EXPERIENCE & FOCUS
CAREER
For the past 14 years my career has been dedicated to supporting women through pre-conception, conception, birth, postpartum and beyond. Working for a large healthcare organization I have had the opportunity to work with women in a clinical and leadership capacity. Through my practice I am able to deeply connect with women and create change in a more intimate, impactful way.
I am so grateful to be a small part of each women's journey and would be honored to work with you.
