I specialize in perinatal therapy in Florida for women and their partners navigating pregnancy and the postpartum period.
You might feel emotionally overwhelmed, isolated, lacking boundaries, or stuck in patterns you can’t explain.
You or your partner may be tired of “old” behaviors and are seeking to break cycles that don’t serve you, your relationship, or your family.
I work with new moms, expecting parents, and expanding families who want therapy to move beyond talking—toward understanding what’s happening around them as well as inside them, so effort leads to clarity, direction, and relief.
My integrative approach blends:
Clinical behavior analysis to understand patterns, reinforcement histories, routines, and emotional responding.
Perinatal mental health for pregnancy, postpartum, identity shifts, and PMADs.
Somatic & Sensory information for trauma, nervous system overwhelm, and neurodivergent experiences
Trauma-informed care grounded in compassion, clarity, and sustainable regulation.
Who I Help:
Individuals entering pregnancy or postpartum with emotional overwhelm
Parents with tender histories - mother-loss, father-loss, emotional neglect, attachment wounds
Cycle breakers breaking generational patterns
Neurodivergent individuals struggling with sensory and emotional regulation
Adults navigating trauma, identity rupture, or life transitions
Caregivers of loved ones with cognitive decline

FAQs
-
Perinatal therapy supports the emotional, relational, and nervous system changes that occur during pregnancy and postpartum. It addresses mood shifts, sensory overwhelm, identity transitions, partner stress, and caregiving strain. Therapy focuses on both emotional insight and practical regulation strategies.
-
Not necessarily. Pregnancy and postpartum often intensify stress, attachment triggers, and communication patterns. Individual therapy can help you understand your responses, regulate your nervous system, and shift relational dynamics without requiring both partners to attend sessions.
-
My work is behavior-based, attachment-focused, and nervous system–informed. In addition to exploring emotions, we identify behavioral patterns, regulate stress responses, and develop practical tools that support real-life relational and emotional change.
-
No. Many women seek therapy for emotional complexity, overwhelm, relational strain, or identity shifts that may not meet criteria for a formal diagnosis. Therapy can support these transitions even without a specific label.
-
My work centers on creating an emotionally safe, behaviorally structured space for healing.
Together, we examine:
the behaviors, feelings, and thoughts that are shaped by your past, and reinforced by your present
the emotional patterns formed within your nervous system
the identity you have formed, and shifts occurring in your life
the meaningful changes you want for yourself and your environment.
You deserve support that understands the emotional weight you carry.

" To speak to someone who truly listens, who understands your heart without judgment - there is no greater gift. And for the first time, I feel as though I am not alone. Meeting you has been like hearing a song I’ve always known but never dared to sing. You have brought me back to life, if only for a moment, and that is enough.” -Dostoevsky
