Experiencing a pregnancy or child loss, longing to have a child, in the process of or having become a parent is a unique and individualized experience. Many of us have heard things like “this should be the happiest time of our lives!” “just relax and you’ll get pregnant,” or perhaps we have felt shame to even share our experiences with others due to fear of what they may say. We all deserve space to feel our feelings, share, process and be supported in our journey while knowing we aren’t alone. I am a reproductive psychologist with specialized training in working with birthing people throughout their reproductive experiences. From those who have experienced loss, TFMR, are trying to conceive, those who are pregnant or those who are in the postpartum period, I aim to offer a safe therapeutic space where we can build a meaningful relationship, where there is safety to share the “scary thoughts,” and empowerment to know you are doing an incredible job. Walking through these life transitions can feel incredibly isolating, but you don’t have to do it alone. It is my honor to hold space for you and your experience in all of your humanness.
I work in relationship with my clients, walking beside them on their journeys, holding the value that every individual is the expert of their experience. I utilize multiple different approaches, including emotionally focused, somatic focused, and cognitive styles of interventions, mindfulness as well as offering Brainspotting, to help process big and small challenges. As we walk together we will tailor your work to focus on what works for you!
Please reach out. You do not have to suffer in silence, with support you can feel different.
