As a licensed clinical psychologist I specialize as a pregnancy, postpartum & maternal mental health expert (fertility, pregnancy loss/infant loss, birth trauma, coping with a NICU stay, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, adjustment...)
I believe my role as a therapist is to empower and support you in uncovering a more fulfilling and enriched version of your life. I work in a collaborative manner with my clients and believing in the therapeutic relationship to be a space of healing.

I have professional experience in the health care field, specifically working in oncology and hospice. I am Level 2 Gottman trained and am licensed in both Michigan and Illinois. I utilize different modalities to uniquely fit your needs and desires.
During therapy you will have an open forum to discuss challenges contributing to your emotional wellness. Together, we will make connections to identify how thoughts, feeling, and behaviors influence each other and foster growth and wellness.

My approach to treatment is based on collaboration and a deep understanding of your unique experience. Treatment will be geared to you as the individual, using evidenced based techniques from CBT and Acceptance Commitment Therapy.
Explore ways that you feel stuck or overwhelmed and be curious together about patterns that may be happening that you haven't noticed. You will learn new ways of approaching your challenges so that you can feel confident in yourself.

When I meet with someone, we make a plan to help things feel manageable. Then, I help you learn to shift your thoughts and take the power away from your fears. Finally, you can focus on enjoying your life and feel more connected to others.
Get to the root of your problems by uncovering patterns that keep you stuck, get in touch with your feelings, needs, and boundaries, increase your self-acceptance, deepen your relationships, and identify and go after what you want most out of life.

I take an active, research-driven approach to identify why you are hurting, lost, numb or overwhelmed, bring you the relief you need, and create lasting changes that make you more satisfied with yourself, your relationships, and your life.
