Pregnancy and early motherhood bring intense joy, but also anxiety, exhaustion, and self-doubt. One day you're feeling the excitement of baby kicks, the next you're overwhelmed by worry when they stop or feel different. You have nightmares that you won’t be a good mom while you dedicate so much time researching and planning for your baby. After birth, you might expect to feel only love and joy, but instead, intrusive thoughts and sleepless nights take over, leaving you feeling anxious, disconnected, or even guilty. It’s normal to feel gratitude and love—and also fear, sadness, or resentment—in early motherhood. These emotions can be disorienting and are rarely talked about. I specialize in perinatal mental health, supporting women and families through pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, pregnancy loss, birth trauma, and the emotional transitions into parenthood. If you would like me to, I also integrate evidence-based clinical care with a Christian worldview, honoring faith as a meaningful part of healing while meeting clients with compassion, clinical excellence, and respect for their spiritual journey. I am a Registered Associate Marriage & Family Therapist #148632, employed by Collaborative Therapy Center, and supervised by Linda Stewart, LMFT #102192
