Individual Psychotherapy

Individual therapy is customized to each person seeking support.  I believe therapy is a client-led experience, and I focus on creating individual therapeutic goals with each client in order to meet their short and long term goals.  

​I offer a holistic approach, one that focuses on each individual and considers their unique needs. I strive to incorporate a variety of interventions including CBT techniques, mindfulness, and narrative therapy. My passion is supporting individuals through the changes and transitions of life.

Family/Couples Therapy

Family and couples counseling is a relational approach to challenges at home.  I am trained in Eco-systemic Family Therapy, which focuses on attachment, executive functioning, emotional regulation, and an increased co-caregiving alliance.  Therapy focuses on positive and healthy communication and coregulation.

Lactation Consultation

As a lactation consultant, I am here to help you and your family develop a plan to meet your feeding goals!  I can support you through breastfeeding, pumping, bottle feeding, milk and formula preparation, and all the ups and downs in between.

I recommend a prenatal visit to create your feeding plan, obtain education and information around your options, and troubleshoot any questions or concerns you may have prior to the birth of your child.  After birth, you may seek support with latching, positioning, bottle feeding, oral function or nipple damage/pain, or other challenges.

I believe in evidenced-based education and information so that you can make decisions for your body and your baby.  However you and your family decide to feed your newborn, I truly believe that you know what is best for your family.  I look forward to helping you achieve your feeding goals!

Perinatal Package

This package is designed to build in easy access to mental health and lactation support as you plan for your birth and enter your 4th trimester.

Are you pregnant, and want to check a few things off of your "to do" list? Are you feeling stressed about all the changes that your family is about to experience?  Do you have a personal or family history of anxiety or depression? If any of these sound like you, this package could be for you!  

A 6-session package at a 15% discounted rate includes prenatal preparation sessions, postpartum lactation, and mental health support.  The sessions are tailored to you and your family's needs, spaced out in however feels good to you, and could be provided virtually, in my office space, or in your own home.
