I am a licensed Social Worker and currently pursuing certification in Perinatal Mental Health. I am also a wife, a mom and committed to helping women and girls master their everyday and create harmony in their lives. I understand firsthand, parenting can be challenging and all consuming. It is through my experiences and expertise that I support individuals, and families with navigating through parenthood on their terms.
Who I support:
Families experiencing perinatal transitions: Adjusting to life after baby can be challenging and becoming a new parent can often come with a new set of challenges. My goal is to help you explore those feelings while developing skills to cope and navigate the transitions that accompany parenthood.
Maternal Mood and anxiety disorders: It is natural for women to experience changes in feelings and moods following pregnancy. However, when mild changes become more severe it can make adjusting to life difficult. I utilize evidence based interventions to assess and help you cope with those feelings and emotions during pregnancy, postpartum and beyond.
Parenting Support and relationships: Relationships are essential to positive emotional and behavioral well-being. I will help you understand dynamics and support you with navigating those important relationships in your life.
How I Help:
My goal is to ensure that every individual and family is supported with competent compassionate care. I utilize a strengths based, cognitive behavioral approach; integrating trauma informed care to assist clients with regulating emotions, processing trauma, prioritizing self-care, strengthening relationships and reframing negative thoughts and self-limiting beliefs.
