As a certified perinatal mental health therapist, I provide therapy for women in the pregnancy, postpartum, and any period in motherhood around anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions and adjustments, or anything that a woman may be struggling with. I also provide therapy for dads and partners who are experiencing depression, anxiety, or just trying to adjust to life with a new little one.
I like to help my clients identify what treatment works best for them, and combine it with a whole-person approach focusing on strengths, supports, physical and nutritional health, mindfulness and relaxation techniques. Treatment approaches often used include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Solution-focused Therapy, among others.
My approach is calm, empathetic, and nurturing by nature. My office is a safe space, breastfeeding/pumping friendly, and I welcome new mothers to bring their young infants to sessions as a way to help make therapy more accessible. I also provide online teletherapy through a HIPAA compliant platform, as well as the ability for clients to complete all intake paperwork in their own online client portal.
Insurances accepted include Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, Neighborhood Health Plan of RI, and Tufts.
