  • I'm an out-of-network therapist and I am happy to provide a superbill for possible reimbursement. I also have a limited number of sliding scale openings — please contact me to see if you're eligible.

  • Your first session is a gentle beginning — a chance for us to slow down, get to know each other, and talk about what’s been feeling heavy or hard to carry. We’ll explore what brings you to therapy and what you hope to get out of our work together, while also giving you space to share at your own pace. There’s no pressure to have the right words or a perfect story — just a safe, compassionate space to start wherever you are.

Questions about anxiety and depression therapy

  • If you’re asking that question, it probably matters.

    You don’t need to be in crisis to deserve support. Many of the women I work with are high-functioning. They show up. They perform. They keep the house running. But inside, they feel overwhelmed, irritable, exhausted, numb, or like they’re constantly falling short.

    If anxiety or sadness is:

    • Taking up too much mental space

    • Affecting your sleep or energy

    • Impacting your relationships

    • Making you feel disconnected from yourself

    • Or quietly stealing your joy

    It’s worth paying attention to. You don’t have to wait until you’re falling apart.

  • Anxiety isn’t just panic attacks.

    Sometimes it looks like:

    • Overthinking every conversation

    • Replaying mistakes in your head

    • Feeling responsible for everyone’s emotions

    • Snapping at your family because you’re overstimulated

    • Tightness in your chest or constant tension

    • Being productive all day but unable to rest

    Anxiety often lives in the body. It can feel like you’re always “on.” Together, we gently slow that down.Yes! Reach out to learn more!

  • Depression doesn’t always look like staying in bed.

    For many women, it looks like:

    • Functioning… but feeling flat

    • Losing interest in things you used to enjoy

    • Irritability instead of sadness

    • Feeling like you’re failing, even when you’re doing everything

    • Quiet hopelessness

    • Emotional exhaustion

    Sometimes it’s grief. Sometimes it’s burnout. Sometimes it’s years of self-abandonment catching up. Therapy helps us understand what your sadness is trying to say.

  • Yes.

    Anxiety is a normal human emotion. Sadness is part of being alive. The goal isn’t to eliminate them — it’s to help them stop running your life.

    With support, women often notice:

    • More emotional steadiness

    • Less reactivity

    • More clarity in decisions

    • Greater self-compassion

    • Stronger boundaries

    • A deeper connection with themselves

    Not perfection. Not constant happiness.
    But real, grounded relief.

  • How do I get started?

    You can begin by scheduling a consultation.

    We’ll talk briefly about what’s bringing you in and whether we’re a good fit. If it feels right, we’ll schedule your first session and begin from there.

    You don’t have to be completely ready.
    You just have to be willing.

    And that’s already brave.

Questions about EMDR

and Trauma Therapy

  • Many women minimize their experiences.

    They say:
    “It wasn’t that bad.”
    “Other people had it worse.”
    “I should be over it by now.”

    Trauma isn’t defined by the event alone. It’s defined by how your nervous system experienced it.

    If something still feels activated in your body…
    If certain memories feel charged, intrusive, or hard to think about…
    If you react strongly and don’t fully understand why…

    It matters.

    And it deserves care.

  • Trauma doesn’t always look like flashbacks.

    It can look like:

    • Feeling constantly on edge

    • Overreacting and then feeling ashamed

    • Emotional numbness

    • Difficulty trusting others

    • People-pleasing or perfectionism

    • Avoiding certain conversations or situations

    • Feeling “too much” or “not enough”

    Sometimes trauma shows up in relationships more than in memories.

  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured, research-supported therapy that helps your brain process distressing memories that feel “stuck.”

    When something overwhelming happens, your brain doesn’t always store it properly. EMDR helps the brain reprocess those memories so they feel less intense and less present.

    You still remember what happened.
    But it no longer feels like it’s happening now.

  • Not necessarily.

    EMDR does not require you to describe every detail of your trauma. Many clients appreciate that the work happens internally while you remain grounded and supported.

    We move at a pace that feels safe.

    You are always in control.

  • EMDR can support healing from:

    • Sexual assault

    • Childhood emotional neglect

    • Betrayal trauma

    • Birth trauma

    • Medical trauma

    • Car accidents

    • Sudden loss

    • Chronic criticism or emotional invalidation

    It can also help with persistent shame, anxiety, or negative core beliefs that trace back to earlier experiences.

  • Healing is not linear.

    Some memories process quickly. Others take more time. Some clients choose short-term trauma-focused work. Others integrate EMDR into longer-term therapy.

    We revisit your goals often and adjust as needed.

  • That makes sense.

    Avoidance is often a survival strategy. Your nervous system learned that staying away from certain memories kept you safe.

    We honor that.

    Starting trauma therapy doesn’t mean diving into everything at once. It means beginning with safety, pacing, and trust.

    You are never forced to go somewhere you’re not ready to go.

  • We begin with a consultation to talk about what’s bringing you in and whether trauma-focused work feels appropriate right now.

    If we move forward, we build a foundation first — emotional regulation, grounding, safety — before any processing begins.

    You don’t have to carry it alone anymore.

    Healing is possible.
    And it can be gentler than you think.

Questions about postpartum and depression therapy

  • Becoming a mother is overwhelming. Sleep deprivation alone can make everything feel harder.

    But postpartum anxiety and depression go beyond typical adjustment.

    If you notice:

    • Constant worry that won’t turn off

    • Intrusive or scary thoughts that feel upsetting

    • Feeling disconnected from your baby

    • Crying more than expected

    • Irritability or rage that surprises you

    • Guilt that feels heavy and constant

    • A sense that you’re failing, even when you’re doing everything

    It’s worth talking about.

    You are not dramatic. You are not weak. And you are not alone.

  • Postpartum anxiety often hides behind “being a good mom.”

    It can look like:

    • Repeatedly checking if the baby is breathing

    • Googling symptoms late at night

    • Feeling on edge all day

    • Racing thoughts you can’t slow down

    • Fear of something terrible happening

    • Tight chest, nausea, shakiness

    Some mothers feel afraid to say these things out loud. Many worry they will be judged.

    In therapy, nothing you share will shock me. We approach it with steadiness and care.

  • Yes. And many women do.

    You might feel anxious and restless one moment, and hopeless or flat the next.

    Postpartum mood disorders are complex. They deserve nuanced, compassionate care — not quick reassurance or dismissal.

  • Only if it feels important to you.

    Sometimes birth trauma plays a role. Sometimes feeding struggles, identity shifts, or relationship strain are at the center.

    We explore what feels relevant — gently and at your pace.

  • Hormones absolutely play a role. So does sleep deprivation. So do life transitions. So do old patterns that resurface when we become mothers.

    Nothing is “wrong” with you.

    Motherhood can activate parts of us we didn’t even know were there — fears, grief, perfectionism, old wounds.

    Therapy helps you understand what is happening instead of blaming yourself for it.

  • Depends on what you’re carrying.

    Some women need short-term support during the adjustment period. Others use this season to go deeper — healing anxiety, perfectionism, trauma, or relationship patterns that existed long before baby arrived.

    There is no timeline you must follow.

  • Shame is incredibly common in postpartum anxiety and depression.

    Many mothers think:
    “I should be grateful.”
    “Other women handle this better.”
    “What kind of mom feels this way?”

    Shame grows in silence. Healing grows in safe connection.

    You deserve a space where you can say the hard things without being judged.

  • Yes.

    With support, women often experience:

    • Less intrusive worry

    • More emotional steadiness

    • Increased connection with their baby

    • More patience with themselves

    • A deeper sense of confidence

    Not perfection.
    Not constant bliss.
    But steadiness. Clarity. Relief.

  • You can schedule a consultation to talk briefly about what you’re experiencing.

    We’ll explore whether this feels like a good fit, and if it does, we’ll begin from there.

    You don’t have to wait until you’re completely overwhelmed.

    You are allowed to get support — even if you’re “managing.”

Questions about couples therapy

  • Most couples wait longer than they need to.

    You don’t have to be on the brink of separation to benefit from therapy.

    Couples therapy can help if you’re:

    • Having the same argument over and over

    • Feeling distant or disconnected

    • Struggling after a betrayal

    • Navigating a major life transition (baby, career shifts, relocation)

    • Experiencing resentment that won’t resolve

    • Feeling more like roommates than partners

    If something feels off, tense, or fragile — that’s enough.

    You don’t have to wait for a crisis.

  • No.

    It means you’re willing to invest in it.

    Strong couples seek support. Therapy isn’t a sign that you’re broken — it’s a sign that you care enough to slow down and understand what’s happening beneath the surface.

    Many couples come in because they want to strengthen what’s already there.

  • We don’t just referee arguments.

    We slow down the patterns.

    In sessions, we might:

    • Identify recurring conflict cycles

    • Understand each partner’s emotional triggers

    • Explore attachment needs and fears

    • Practice communicating in ways that feel safer and clearer

    • Address unresolved hurts

    The goal isn’t to decide who’s right.
    It’s to help you understand each other differently.

  • That’s common.

    Often one partner reaches out first. Sometimes one is skeptical.

    We create space for both perspectives. Therapy is not about forcing someone to change. It’s about helping each of you feel heard — sometimes for the first time in a long while.

  • Yes — but it requires honesty, accountability, and patience.

    Betrayal disrupts safety. Therapy helps:

    • Rebuild trust (if both partners are willing)

    • Process the hurt and anger

    • Understand the relational patterns that existed before the rupture

    • Clarify what each partner truly wants moving forward

    Healing after betrayal is possible — but it’s intentional work.

  • Therapy can still help.

    Some couples come in unsure whether they want to repair or separate. In those cases, therapy becomes a space for clarity rather than immediate decision-making.

    You deserve to make thoughtful decisions — not reactive ones.

  • It depends on your goals and the complexity of the patterns.

    Some couples come for short-term support around communication. Others stay longer to work through deeper attachment wounds or long-standing dynamics.

    We revisit your goals regularly and adjust as needed.

  • Emotional and physical intimacy are often deeply connected.

    Disconnection can stem from:

    • Resentment

    • Unresolved conflict

    • Stress and burnout

    • Trauma history

    • Parenting demands

    • Fear of vulnerability

    Therapy creates space to gently explore what’s getting in the way — without shame.

  • You can reach out to schedule a consultation.

    We’ll briefly discuss what’s bringing you in and what you’re hoping will shift. If it feels like a good fit, we’ll schedule your first session and begin from there.

    Couples therapy isn’t about becoming perfect partners.
    It’s about becoming more emotionally safe partners.

    And that kind of change can ripple through everything.
