My Story: Perinatal Treatment

The transition to parenthood is often described as one of life's happiest seasons, yet it can also be one of its most vulnerable. Whether you're trying to conceive, pregnant, adjusting to life with a new baby, navigating a high-risk pregnancy, or grieving a loss, you deserve care that recognizes the complexity of this experience without judgment.

As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and Certified Perinatal Mental Health provider (PMH-C), I have completed advanced training in the assessment and treatment of perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. I work with individuals experiencing pregnancy and postpartum depression, anxiety, OCD, birth trauma, infertility, pregnancy loss, adjustment challenges, and the emotional changes that can accompany becoming a parent.

My clinical experience also includes supporting families in the NICU at Brigham and Women's Hospital, where I worked alongside parents facing medically complex pregnancies, unexpected diagnoses, prolonged hospitalizations, and infant loss. This experience reinforced how profoundly pregnancy and early parenthood can impact emotional well-being, relationships, identity, and a family's sense of safety.

My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and grounded in evidence-based care. Together, we'll create space for the emotions that often coexist during this season—love alongside fear, gratitude alongside grief, hope alongside uncertainty. Therapy may focus on understanding anxiety or intrusive thoughts, processing birth or medical trauma, strengthening coping skills, rebuilding confidence, or simply having a place where you don't have to carry everything on your own.

Above all, I believe there is no "right" way to experience pregnancy or parenthood. Every journey is different, and every story deserves to be heard with compassion and respect. My goal is to provide a supportive space where you feel understood, empowered, and equipped with the tools to move through this season with greater confidence and self-compassion.
