Welcome to my counseling practice. I hope you find information here that is useful to you and I look forward to being helpful in any way that I can.

Pregnancy and postpartum related distress and mood disorders are caused by a number of issues that are biological and emotional.   The symptoms and emotions that are a part of your distress can often be difficult to manage without help and often keep you from the ability to  function on a day to day basis.  It is my role to help you to better understand why you are feeling the way you do and then decide together what needs to happen in order to feel like yourself again.

It is important to keep in mind that women and families often assume that you must be pregnant or have a new baby to experience depression, anxiety and other mood disorders.  However, pregnancy and postpartum issues include more than being pregnant or having a baby.  Women that experience infertility and infertility treatment,  miscarraiges, abortions, stillbirth, infant loss,  and those that adopt can go through the same distressing time and experience clinical levels of depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders.   

Please take a look around.  You deserve to feel better, you can feel better with the right care, and you WILL feel like yourself again!  Be in touch.
