About Me
I’m committed to showing up with warmth, empathy, and authentic respect for each person’s lived experience. My primary focus area is perinatal mental health, including mood and anxiety disorders, perinatal trauma, grief and loss, and fertility challenges. I also welcome clients looking for support with processing trauma or navigating complex relationships and life transitions beyond the perinatal experience.
Education & Experience
University of Wisconsin-Madison (BA)
Case Western Reserve University (MSSA)
My social work practice experience includes a variety of settings including community mental health, in-home therapy, outpatient therapy, macro practice social work, and mental health policy advocacy.
I have completed advanced training in EMDR around perinatal trauma and infertility, along with advanced training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International. I am committed to ongoing learning and specialized training in the field and my niche(s) within it.
