The Things That Change Us

Therapy for Mamas and Papas was born from a simple belief: the experiences that shape our families also shape us.
 

Pregnancy, reproductive loss, parenthood, trauma, grief, and major life transitions have the power to transform how we see ourselves and move through the world. These experiences can bring immense love and meaning, but they can also awaken fear, uncertainty, heartbreak, and old wounds we thought we had long outgrown.
 

My path to this work began long before I became a therapist. It was shaped by my own experiences of trauma, recovery, healing, and ultimately, motherhood. Becoming a parent deepened my understanding of how profoundly our past influences our present and how much support people need as they navigate life's most significant transitions.
 

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in perinatal mental health, reproductive loss, postpartum mental health, and trauma, I help individuals, couples, and families make sense of experiences that often feel impossible to put into words. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that healing begins when we feel seen, understood, and supported.
 

Whether you are trying to conceive, navigating pregnancy, grieving a loss, adjusting to parenthood, or healing from experiences that continue to shape your life, you do not have to carry it alone.
 

I would be honored to walk alongside you.

Approach to Therapy

I believe that many of life's greatest struggles emerge at the intersection of our past experiences and present relationships.
 

Pregnancy, loss, parenthood, trauma, grief, and major life transitions often reveal parts of ourselves that have been waiting to be understood.
 

My role is not to tell you who to be or how to feel. It is to help you explore your experiences with curiosity and compassion, identify patterns that no longer serve you, and create space for healing and growth. Together, we will make sense of the story you have been carrying and discover how it continues to shape the life you are living today.
