How I Can Help

As a mom of two little ones and a dedicated therapist specializing in maternal health and birth trauma, my approach is rooted in compassion, empathy, and evidence-based interventions. Utilizing Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), we will process through and heal any unresolved pain and distress around the pregnancy and birthing process. Allowing you to heal and fully enjoy all of the seasons of motherhood. I offer a warm and supportive space for perinatal counseling in Winter Park that allows for the deep healing to happen. Whether you're navigating the challenges of pregnancy, experiencing birth trauma, or seeking support in the postpartum period, I am here to guide you through the healing journey.

Maternal Mental Health Matters

Navigating the complexities of maternal mental health is an incredibly personal journey, marked by both profound joys and unique challenges. It's important to recognize that you are not alone—

Depression can onset during pregnancy, affecting about 15% of individuals post-birth, while up to 10% grapple with significant anxiety during this transformative period. Furthermore, 1 in 3 people report experiencing a traumatic birth, with nearly 1 in 10 facing postpartum PTSD symptoms.

These statistics underscore the importance of seeking support, and finding the right fit in a therapist can make all the difference. As you navigate this delicate journey, I am here to provide the compassionate and empathetic support you deserve. Together, we can create a space for healing and growth. Don't hesitate to take that first step—reach out, and let's embark on this journey towards maternal well-being together.
