Psychotherapist & Trainer
Psychotherapy
Currently, I see clients who live anywhere in WA State via telehealth.
I work with adults on a variety of therapeutic issues. That said, because I have very limited space in my practice, I am currently only taking short-term, perinatal psychotherapy clients.
Whether you are pregnant for the first time, newly postpartum, or a seasoned parent I want you to embrace the notion that you have the ability to change the future...
Being a parent is an incredible experience, but it can also be a very challenging emotional and logistical time. It is therefore one of the most important times in life to get additional support. I love working with families from pre-conception to empty nesting, helping them embrace the realities of parenthood and free up stuck patterns and dynamics from their past.
As you work through and heal relationship and familial issues, you free up more energy for yourself and your child(ren). This can ultimately help you repattern issues from your past and help your child have an easier journey in life.
I offer parents support around:
-
Exploring your own birth and early childhood experiences, which may be holding you back as an individual, partner, or parent
-
Examining issues with your family of origin (parents, siblings, etc.) that often become heightened during pregnancy and parenthood
-
Addressing fears you have about becoming a parent
-
Exploring previous trauma or abuse and how that may affect your pregnancy, birth, and parenting experience
-
Working through a difficult or traumatic birth experience
-
Adjusting to new phases of parenthood, such as the addition of a subsequent child, adolescence, or children leaving the home
-
Supporting parents raising children with a history of trauma, including children who were prenatally substance exposed, spent time in the NICU, or were part of the foster-care system
-
Other topics related to the journey of pregnancy, birth, and parenthood
To see if I have current availability or if we can address an issue not listed here, please contact me.
