Work HistoryMotherhood can bring immense joy, but it can also come with unexpected challenges, stress, and emotional ups and downs. If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, or the effects of a traumatic birth, infertility, or miscarriage, you’re not alone. Together, we will build on your strengths, develop coping skills, and work toward emotional healing so you can feel more confident, resilient, and connected in your journey. My approach is personalized and holistic, integrating bilateral stimulation (eye movements & tapping) to accelerate healing and symptom reduction. I specialize in supporting women through perinatal and postpartum challenges, offering a safe space for growth and transformation while connecting you to valuable community resources. Taking the first step can be hard, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re ready to regain balance and find joy in motherhood, let’s connect. Click on my website to schedule a session and get back to enjoying life & motherhood.
