"I think people need to talk about it more because it's almost like the fourth trimester, it's part of the pregnancy."


- Serena Williams, Professional Tennis Player

About Me

I am an associate clinical social worker, veteran, parent, partner, and ally. Though I've always admired and valued mental health care, I only came to this work after trying on other careers. In retrospect, those life experiences have enriched my practice. I love this career and the impact a strong therapeutic relationship can have on a person: both life changing and, in some cases, life saving. 


Though I specialize in working with adults during pre-conception, navigating fertility treatments, pregnancy, and postpartum, I also work with individuals living with anxiety, depression, and trauma. I enjoy working with veterans and active/reserve duty members. I understand the unique challenges in this population from my own lived experience on active and reserve duty and have specialized training in this area.
