I received my Bachelor’s of Arts in Psychology from the University of Michigan, and my Master’s of Social Work from Loyola University Chicago. Prior to opening my private practice, I worked with children and families in school settings as a school social worker.
Through my own experience with infertility, and subsequently becoming a mother, I discovered the need for more awareness of and support for women on the journey to parenthood. I have advanced specialized training in Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders through Postpartum Support International, EMDR training for Perinatal Mental Health Practitioners through the Touchstone Institute, and 85-hour training in prenatal and postnatal yoga through Sweet Momma Yoga. I am a big believer in the relationship between yoga and mental health, and like to incorporate aspects of yoga, meditation, and mindfulness into my therapy practice whenever appropriate.
Together we can acknowledge the struggles that so commonly arise during this phase of life in an approachable, relatable, and relaxed environment. Using a blend of therapeutic techniques, I can help you gain confidence, support and coping skills, and feel empowered.
