I specialize in helping individuals navigate the prenatal season of life with clarity, compassion, and practical tools that fit real life. I’m an EMDR-certified Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Virginia and EMDR-certified Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist in Maryland with 15+ years of mental health experience. I provide individual therapy focused on prenatal and postpartum transitions. Many of the clients I work with are processing birth-related experiences, relationship changes after pregnancy, pregnancy loss or complications, fertility journeys, postpartum anxiety, intrusive thoughts, panic, depression, identity shifts, internal/external pressures and the ways that becoming a parent can activate earlier trauma.

​​

My approach is collaborative, grounded, and trauma-informed. Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to “hold it together.” We’ll move at a pace that feels safe, and we’ll focus on reducing triggers and creating sustainable habits that support your nervous system, your identity, and your relationships. Whether you’re preparing for parenthood, newly postpartum, or parenting while healing old wounds, you deserve support that honors the whole story.

​

I hold a B.S. in Psychology (Virginia State University) and an M.A. in Human Services (Liberty University), along with certifications in Marriage and Family Therapy, Autism Education, and advanced couples-focused training. I’m Harvard-trained in Couples Therapy and a PhD candidate in Marriage and Family Therapy at Northcentral University, where my research focuses on relationship satisfaction during parenthood.
