I have specific and advanced expertise helping adults struggling with perinatal mood disorders.  

This includes challenges anything related to the reproductive journey:

• Imagining or conceptualizing pregnancy 

• Issues related to fertility

• Challenges during pregnancy

• Miscarriage and pregnancy loss

• Postpartum transition 

• Processing a NICU stay

• Negative or traumatic birth experiences

• Death of an infant 

• Grief and loss

Here are some examples how these issues may be showing up in your life.

• Feelings of inadequacy around new parenthood

• Feeling pressured to appear happy in this phase of life

• Feeling vulnerability around the highly competitive culture of new parenthood

• Feelings of loss around changing sense of self 

• Experiencing a loss at any phase in the reproductive period

• Feelings of burnout providing for those in the reproductive phase

• Navigating the complicated decisions around infertility

• Having intense unwanted and fear based thoughts around those who you love

• Feeling unable to cope with stress like you did before 

• Frustration with the many changes in your relationships at this phase

• Negative relationship with body

Here are interventions I use to help support you during this difficult time.
