My Areas of Specialty

I am a clinical social worker privileged to work in various therapeutic settings. My main focus is providing support and guidance to women and families on matters relating to prenatal, perinatal, and postpartum mental health, sexual health, and reproductive psychology. If you need someone to talk to, I am here for you!

  • While working with LGBTQ+ communities, we focus on providing a safe space to process your experiences, including surgery evaluations for transgender individuals.

  • I focus on improving sexual health and positive sexuality across the lifespan.

  • While in therapy to process life transitions, I help you focus on processing emotions that arise while you transition into adulthood, parenthood, and menopause..

  • While in participating in trauma-informed therapy, we focus on managing anxiety, providing tools for emotional regulation, developing skills to address relationship concerns, and processing grief, loss, and depression.

  • While in therapy to address peripartum mental health concerns, we typically focus on addressing emotional wellbeing, coping strategies, and relationship dynamics related to pregnancy and new parenthood. These sessions often explore identity shifts, bonding concerns, past traumas, and practical worries while screening for perinatal mood disorders. The overall goal is to provide support and develop strategies for managing the psychological challenges of this significant life transition.
