Perinatal and Parent Counseling

Therapy during the journey of conception, pregnancy, postpartum and parenting

Frequent Reasons to Seek Help

Pregnancy and Postpartum

This period can bring both joy and excitement, but it is also completely normal to experience a range of emotions, including anxiety and sadness. You might find yourself feeling overwhelmed and doubting your abilities. I'm here to provide guidance and support as we work together to enhance your coping mechanisms and help you regain a sense of authenticity and resilience.

Parenting

Navigating the journey of parenting can be incredibly challenging and there's no one-size-fits-all approach. Together, we can delve into the unique dynamics of your family and explore various parenting styles and decisions that align with your values and suit the needs of your child(ren). Remember, you're not alone in this, and we're here to figure this out together.

Infertility

Experiencing challenges in your journey to conceive or maintain a pregnancy can be an isolating and highly stressful experience. Do you often find yourself caught in a cycle of anxiety, sadness, or self-blame? I provide a safe, judgment-free space where you can openly express your thoughts and emotions, free from external pressures and timelines.

Need a place to talk about how you are really doing?

Beginning the journey of parenthood often involves hopeful expectations. If reality isn't aligning with your envisioned path, remember that you're not alone. I'm here to provide support and offer guidance as you navigate the challenges that arise during this transition.
