Life is a journey filled with complex emotions, experiences, and challenges, and as a woman, you may find yourself navigating a unique set of hurdles at various stages of life. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, working through past trauma, facing challenges in relationships, or adjusting to major life transitions like menopause, parenting, or empty nesting, you don’t have to go through it alone. I’m here to offer a safe, compassionate space for you to heal, grow, and thrive.
I specialize in working with women and understand the intricacies of the emotional, mental, and physical shifts you experience throughout life. From the pressures of balancing life and family, to the transformative challenges of raising children, to the personal growth that can come with empty nesting or menopause—our work together will be personalized to meet your individual needs.
Anxiety & Stress Management
Life can feel overwhelming, and anxiety can take many forms—whether it’s general worry, panic attacks, or the pressure of juggling multiple roles. I’ll empower you to understand the root causes of your anxiety and teach you practical tools to manage your nervous system effectively, restoring a sense of peace and balance in your life.
Trauma & Healing
Many women experience past trauma that can impact their emotional well-being and relationships. Whether the trauma is rooted in childhood, relationships, or significant life events, I offer a trauma-informed approach to help you process, heal, and reclaim your power. Healing is possible, and with the right support, you can rediscover strength, resilience, and self-compassion.
Relationship Support
From romantic relationships to family dynamics, relationships often play a significant role in your mental health. Whether you’re facing conflict, communication issues, or trying to navigate changing dynamics (such as with your partner, parents, or children), therapy can offer guidance on how to improve these relationships and establish healthy boundaries.
Menopause & Midlife Transitions
Menopause is more than just a physical shift; it’s an emotional and psychological transition as well. If you’re struggling with mood changes, sleep, loss of identity, or adjusting to a new stage of life, we’ll work together to help you embrace this transition with grace and confidence. It’s an opportunity for self-reflection, growth, and empowerment.
Parenting Young Children
Parenting can be overwhelming and exhausting, especially with young children. From managing tantrums and sleep issues to handling the pressure of modern-day parenting, I can provide guidance and support for navigating the challenges of raising kids while maintaining your own well-being.
Parenting Teenagers
Parenting teens presents a different set of challenges. With growing independence, rebellion, and communication barriers, it can feel difficult to maintain a strong connection with your child. We’ll work on strategies for effective communication, boundary setting, and fostering connected relationships as your child becomes more independent.
Empty Nesting & Life After Kids
When children leave the home, it’s normal to experience a sense of loss, confusion, or identity shift. Empty nesting can bring up feelings of sadness, grief, loneliness, or anxiety about the future. Together, we’ll explore this new phase, find new passions, and rediscover who you are outside of your role as a parent.
Parenting Adult Children: Navigating Changing Roles and Relationships
Parenting doesn’t end when children become adults—it simply evolves. As your children grow into independence, the dynamics of your relationship shift. You may find yourself balancing the desire to guide while respecting their autonomy. Whether it’s navigating boundaries, managing expectations, or coping with feelings of loss as their lives become more separate, this stage can be both rewarding and challenging.
I can help you explore healthy ways to maintain connection while fostering mutual respect. Together, we’ll address common concerns such as communication issues, managing differences in values or life choices, and letting go of control. By embracing your evolving role, you can cultivate a positive, supportive relationship with your adult children while rediscovering your own sense of identity and purpose.
Sandwich Generation
If you’re part of the “sandwich generation,” balancing the care of aging parents while raising children or supporting adult children, you know how emotionally and physically draining it can be. Managing these dual responsibilities can lead to stress, burnout, and a sense of being overwhelmed. I offer a supportive space where you can process your feelings and create strategies to care for yourself while meeting the needs of your loved ones. Together, we’ll explore how to navigate these unique challenges with compassion and resilience.

Having been through these transitions, and my combination of learned experience and professional expertise makes me a compassionate and knowledgeable partner in your journey. I bring not only evidence-based techniques but also a deep understanding with compassion of the challenges you face, allowing us to work together toward meaningful growth and healing.
A Safe, Nonjudgmental Space for Healing
My approach is rooted in empathy, compassion, and evidence-based techniques designed to empower you to live a more fulfilled and authentic life. Together, we will work toward understanding your feelings, addressing your challenges, and setting actionable goals that align with your values.
