Treatment Areas
Some of the kinds of work I engage in

Anxiety and Depression
Anxiety and depression are more than just worrying and feeling down from time to time. When it strikes, anxiety can leave us overanalyzing every conversation and seeing danger around every bend. Depression can sap our energy, isolate us from people we love, and make it hard to perform daily tasks. Talk therapy can be just one tool to help us understand our feelings, manage our symptoms, and make positive steps towards our future. Whether you’re a teen struggling with academic or social anxiety or an adult wrestling with symptoms of your own, let’s partner together to help you find hope and healing on your mental health journey!
Reproductive Trauma/
Fertility Issues
More than twenty years ago, my first child was stillborn. Even though the doctor diagnosed her particular congenital disability halfway through my pregnancy, the months of waiting, uncertainty, and eventual loss took a toll on my mental health, relationships, and well-being.
Losing a pregnancy or experiencing infertility can be one of the most acute pains a family can experience. It takes time, self-compassion, and sometimes the help of a qualified therapist to help navigate the unique challenges that reproductive trauma brings. If you’re looking for a therapist who can help you traverse these steps with care, compassion, clinical knowledge, and personal experience, please schedule a consultation call.


Navigating
Life Challenges
Sometimes, it feels like life is rocking right along when, out of nowhere, a storm appears on the horizon. Loss, grief, relationship challenges, or divorce can feel like they’re knocking the wind out of our sails. At other times, life brings us expected changes with unexpected challenges. Transitions like a growing family, a significant move, the emptying nest, or even retirement can leave us wondering where to go from here. Whatever challenge you’re going through, talk therapy can be an important step in understanding and healing from hurts, navigating change, and finding hope for calmer waters ahead.

Grief/Loss
For some, grief comes out of nowhere-a blinding punch that leaves you gasping and struggling for breath. For others, grief sneaks up in the form of a loved one’s lingering illness or parent’s increasing age and fragility. Even then, the loss can envelop and overwhelm everything around you. We can grieve the loss of a person, the loss of a relationship, the loss of a job, even the loss of our health. Grief is unique to each person and experience, and there’s no right way to do it. However, when grief lingers, and it seems like you can’t find your way out of the fog, it might be time to find some support. Whether it’s processing the loss, working through complex emotions, or even figuring out what life looks like on the other side, I’d be happy to sit with you and process grief’s complex emotions and find the space to move forward.

Adolescent Therapy
Teen girls can face a variety of challenges from school, grades, friends, social media, body image issues, or dealing with anxiety, depression, perfectionism, self-harming behavior, or suicidal thoughts. Therapy can be a place where girls can share their struggles, find tools to help navigate adolescence, and find empathy and encouragement as they move towards adulthood.
