Welcome
Welcome
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a private practice based in the Wallingford Neighborhood. I have been working in the field of mental health for over 20 years. I see the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative one, in which we work together to explore areas in your life that you may be struggling with. My role is to provide a safe space to explore these challenges that you may be facing, or areas you would like to improve upon in your own personal journey. Many times these obstacles may be hindering you from moving forward. Whether you are struggling in relationships, family, with depression, anxiety, a traumatic event, life changes, or you are just looking to grow further as a person. I can help guide you in this process towards growth and change.
In my practice I primarily work with adults and do some couples work as well. An area of focus in my practice is working with women struggling with perinatal mood disorders, pregnancy loss, birth trauma and infertility. I work with new parents struggling to find that balance in their life and relationship after baby arrives. I also specialize in working with adults who struggle with depression and anxiety.
Some of the areas I focus on in my practice include:
-
Depression
-
Life transitions
- Anxiety
- Grief and Loss
- Family of Origin wounds
- Interpersonal relationships
- Self Esteem
- Disordered Eating
- Parenting
- Divorce
- Pregnancy Loss
- Prenatal and postpartum depression and anxiety
- Birth Trauma
- Infertility
- Drug and Alcohol issues
