Perinatal Mood and Anxiety disorders (PMADs) are the most common complication of pregnancy. Furthermore, one in four pregnancies end in miscarriage, one in five women are unable to get pregnant after one year of trying, and one in four women report their birth to be traumatic. 

I came to perinatal mental health through my own lived experience when pregnancy, birth, and postpartum came with a lot more than I bargained for.  If you're here, it's probably because like so many of us, this time has brought on a lot more than you bargained for. I work with women and birthing people to help:

• manage feelings of overwhelm and anxiety

• find relief from depression

• cope with intrusive thoughts 

• process grief and loss (even the ambiguous type - like grieving the future you imagined, your old life, or who you were before having a baby)

• process trauma,  both birth trauma and past traumas that may have resurfaced

• explore and heal attachments wounds 

• navigate an infertility diagnosis

• advocate for yourself and promote bodily autonomy in the medical industrial complex

• plan for postpartum, identify supports, discuss boundaries, etc. 

• explore the myths of motherhood, motherhood as martyrdom, and the perfect mom

• bond or feel more connected to your baby

• reconnect with your partner, improve communication and intimacy

• and so much more
