Women's Mental Health
Women’s emotional well-being is deeply connected to the physical, hormonal, and relational changes that unfold across life — from adolescence and fertility through motherhood, midlife, and menopause.
Therapy offers space to understand these shifts, care for your body and mind together, and build greater steadiness, self-compassion, and balance in the midst of change - in an environment that is inclusive and affirming of all identities and experiences.
Specialty Areas
Perinatal and Postpartum Anxiety or Depression
Pregnancy and new motherhood can bring unexpected waves of anxiety, sadness, or intrusive thoughts that feel frightening or “not you.” Therapy offers a safe, understanding space to process these experiences and find steadiness, confidence, and self-compassion. Read more below.
Perfectionism & People Pleasing
High expectations and chronic overextension can quietly drain your energy and sense of fulfillment. Together, we’ll explore the beliefs and pressures that drive perfectionism, help you set boundaries with compassion, and create space for rest, purpose, and sustainable balance.
Perimenopause, Menopause and Midlife
Midlife often brings a mix of emotional, physical, and existential changes—fluctuating hormones, shifting roles, and questions of identity or meaning. Together, we’ll make sense of these transitions, ease mood and stress, and help you reconnect to vitality and confidence in this evolving stage.
Relationships, Belonging, and Life Transitions
For many women in their late 20s to early 40s, questions about love, family, and timing can stir deep anxiety and self-doubt. Together, we’ll explore these feelings with compassion, reduce comparison and fear, and help you build relationships and a life that feel fulfilling and authentic—whatever form they take.
Motherhood & Identity
Motherhood can be both deeply meaningful and profoundly depleting, often leaving women questioning who they are outside of caregiving. Our work focuses on helping you rediscover yourself, set boundaries, and restore energy and self-worth.
Cultural Expectations and Invisible Labor
Many women carry a quiet, constant pressure to manage everything—work, home, relationships, and emotions—often without acknowledgment or rest. Therapy helps you name this invisible weight, challenge unrealistic expectations, and create space for your own needs and well-being without guilt.
Maternal Mental Health
Perinatal and Postpartum Anxiety or Depression
Pregnancy and new motherhood can bring unexpected emotional intensity — worry, sadness, intrusive thoughts, or feeling unlike yourself. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to help you process these feelings, regulate your nervous system, and regain steadiness and confidence.
Intrusive Thoughts and Postpartum OCD
Distressing, repetitive thoughts or fears can feel isolating and frightening. Together, we’ll work on understanding what drives these experiences and use evidence-based strategies to reduce anxiety and restore a sense of safety and control.
Birth Trauma and Medical Anxiety
A difficult birth or medical experience can leave lingering fear, grief, or hypervigilance. Therapy helps you process what happened, rebuild trust in your body, and find healing at your own pace.
Adjustment to Motherhood and Identity Changes
Motherhood often reshapes identity, relationships, and priorities in ways that can feel destabilizing. We’ll explore these shifts with honesty and compassion, helping you reconnect to yourself while caring for others.
Balancing Work, Motherhood, and Self-Care
The push to “do it all” can lead to exhaustion and self-criticism. Therapy offers tools for boundary-setting, emotional regulation, and building a more sustainable rhythm that includes space for you.
