Therapy is a partnership — a space where your story is heard, your feelings are honored, and your goals guide the work we do together. How we approach therapy depends on you and the challenges you’re facing. We may use EMDR, talk therapy, or other trauma-informed techniques, always tailored to what will help you heal and grow. In addition to processing your experiences, we’ll incorporate psychoeducation — helping you understand how your mind and body respond to stress, trauma, and grief. This knowledge gives you insight into your reactions, reduces self-blame, and provides practical tools to manage emotions and navigate difficult moments. Together, we’ll move at a pace that feels safe and manageable. You’ll have support in building coping strategies, processing difficult experiences, and learning ways to feel calmer, more grounded, and more confident. Every step of the way, the work is centered around your unique needs, helping you reclaim control, restore balance, and reconnect with yourself.

Motherhood can be beautiful, but it can also be overwhelming, lonely, and full of unexpected challenges. From pregnancy to postpartum and beyond, you may find yourself feeling anxious, exhausted, or like you’ve lost touch with who you are. You’re not alone — and you don’t have to figure it out on your own. In therapy, we’ll slow things down and create space for you to breathe, reflect, and heal. Together, we’ll explore what’s been weighing you down — whether it’s birth trauma, postpartum anxiety or depression, grief, or the daily stress of trying to hold everything together. Our work will help you: Regulate your emotions and calm an overactive mind. Rebuild your confidence in your body, your choices, and your role as a mom. Navigate relationships that may have shifted since becoming a parent. Process grief or trauma related to your birth experience, fertility journey, or NICU stay. Find yourself again — the version of you who feels grounded, connected, and at peace. Motherhood doesn’t have to mean losing yourself. Therapy can help you feel like you again — present, capable, and able to enjoy the moments that matter most.

Even when a baby is healthy, a difficult or traumatic birth can leave lasting emotional scars. You may replay moments from your delivery, feel anxious around medical settings, or struggle to bond with your baby. You might tell yourself you should be grateful — but inside, you feel scared, disconnected, or even ashamed for not feeling the joy you expected. Birth trauma is real, and it’s more common than most people realize. Whether your experience involved unexpected complications, feeling unheard or powerless, an emergency intervention, or time in the NICU, what you went through matters. Your story deserves to be held with care. In therapy, we’ll move at your pace to gently process what happened and begin to rebuild safety — in your body, your relationships, and your sense of self. Together, we’ll: Make sense of your experience so you can stop reliving it and start healing. Rebuild trust in your body and in the people who support you. Address anxiety, guilt, or grief that may have followed your birth experience. Restore connection with your baby and your identity as a mother. Find new ways to feel grounded and safe in your daily life. You don’t have to carry the weight of your birth experience alone. Healing is possible — and together, we’ll help you find your footing again so you can feel more peace, confidence, and connection in motherhood.

The NICU changes everything. No one imagines starting parenthood surrounded by monitors, alarms, and medical uncertainty. You may still remember the fear of not knowing if your baby would be okay, the exhaustion of splitting yourself between home and the hospital, or the helplessness of watching your baby in someone else’s care. Even after discharge, it can feel like the worry never left with you. NICU trauma can show up in many ways — anxiety, panic, nightmares, guilt, or difficulty relaxing even when your baby is safe at home. You might feel misunderstood by people who say “you should just be grateful,” when inside, you’re still trying to breathe again. In therapy, we’ll honor your story and create space to process everything you’ve been holding. Together, we’ll work to: Process the fear and helplessness you experienced during your baby’s NICU stay. Address lingering anxiety around your baby’s health, milestones, or future. Work through guilt and grief that may still be present. Rebuild trust in your body, your instincts, and your ability to parent confidently. Strengthen your connection with your baby and your partner as you move forward. You’ve already walked through one of the hardest experiences a parent can face. You don’t have to carry the aftereffects alone. Therapy can help you begin to feel grounded again, trust yourself, and find peace in the moments you missed.

There are no words big enough for this kind of pain. The loss of a baby — whether through miscarriage, stillbirth, or after birth — can leave you feeling shattered, numb, or like life has stopped making sense. The world moves forward, but you may feel stuck in the “before” and “after” of your loss. Grief after infant loss is deep and complicated. You may feel waves of sadness, anger, guilt, or even moments of relief that bring more guilt. You may replay moments, question decisions, or struggle to find the right way to talk about what happened. It’s not something you “get over.” It’s something you learn to carry — with care, compassion, and support. In therapy, we’ll move gently through your grief, creating space for your pain while helping you find ways to reconnect with yourself, your relationships, and life around you. Together, we’ll work to: Honor your loss in a way that feels meaningful and authentic to you. Process guilt, anger, and sadness that may feel too heavy to hold alone. Navigate the impact on your relationships and your sense of identity. Find ways to stay connected to your baby’s memory while learning to live again. Move forward with compassion for yourself and your journey. You don’t have to face this grief alone. There is no timeline and no “right” way to heal — only a path that’s uniquely yours. Therapy can be a place to find steadiness in the waves of loss, and to begin discovering what healing can look like for you.

Sometimes, even after talking about what happened, the body still remembers. You might feel on edge, relive certain moments, or react strongly without fully understanding why. These are signs that your nervous system is still carrying unprocessed trauma — and that healing needs to happen on a deeper level. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a research-backed therapy that helps your brain reprocess painful experiences so they no longer feel as overwhelming. It’s especially helpful for those who have experienced birth trauma, NICU stays, or infant loss — situations where you may have felt helpless, unsafe, or disconnected from your body. In EMDR therapy, you don’t have to retell every detail of what happened. Instead, we’ll use gentle, guided techniques that help your brain and body work together to release what’s been stuck. Over time, those memories become less charged, and you begin to feel calmer, safer, and more in control. Together, we’ll use EMDR to help you: Reduce triggers and flashbacks tied to trauma or medical experiences. Calm anxiety and hypervigilance, especially around your body or your child’s safety. Rebuild trust in yourself and your ability to cope. Integrate your experience so it feels like something that happened to you, not something still happening inside you. Find peace in your mind and body again. Healing is possible. EMDR offers a path to relief that goes beyond words — helping you release the weight of the past so you can move forward with more ease, confidence, and connection.

Sometimes you just need a place to talk — a space where you don’t have to be “strong” or hold it all together. Traditional talk therapy gives you that space. It’s where you can share your story, explore your emotions, and begin to make sense of what you’ve been carrying. In therapy, we’ll slow things down and gently uncover the patterns, thoughts, and emotions that have been shaping how you feel and respond. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, grief, or the ongoing challenges of motherhood, our work together will focus on helping you find clarity, self-compassion, and balance again. Through conversation, reflection, and supportive guidance, you’ll begin to: Understand your emotions and what your mind and body are trying to tell you. Build coping tools to manage stress, anxiety, and overwhelm. Improve communication and boundaries in relationships. Strengthen self-trust and confidence in your decisions. Feel more grounded and connected to yourself and your life. Traditional therapy offers a safe, supportive relationship where healing can unfold naturally. You don’t have to have all the answers — we’ll find them together, one session at a time.

Trauma leaves its mark on both the mind and the body, and healing requires understanding, patience, and safety. Trauma-informed care is a way of approaching therapy that prioritizes your well-being, ensures you feel safe, and meets you exactly where you are. In trauma-informed therapy, we recognize how past experiences — from birth trauma to NICU stays or infant loss — can continue to affect your thoughts, feelings, and daily life. Together, we create a supportive environment that honors your experiences and allows you to process them without feeling overwhelmed or pressured. Through trauma-informed care, we will: Move at your pace so you always feel safe and in control. Honor your experiences and validate the emotions that come with them. Understand your body’s responses to stress and trauma, providing insight and clarity. Build coping tools to manage anxiety, flashbacks, or difficult memories. Support long-term healing by integrating your experiences into your life in a way that restores balance, confidence, and connection. This approach doesn’t just focus on what happened — it focuses on you, your resilience, and the tools you need to feel grounded, supported, and empowered in your daily life.
