Yes. I work with individuals and couples navigating the transition to parenthood, including the emotional and relationship changes that can accompany pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, and early parenthood.

I accept major credit cards as well as HSA and FSA cards.

The first step is to schedule a free 15-minute consultation. This gives us an opportunity to briefly discuss what brings you to therapy, what you are hoping to work on, and whether my approach and services are a good fit for your needs.

Couples therapy may be helpful if you feel stuck in recurring conflict, emotionally disconnected, misunderstood, or unsure how to move forward together.
You do not have to be in crisis to benefit from couples therapy. Many couples seek therapy when they recognize that communication has changed, stress is affecting their relationship, or they want support strengthening their connection before problems become more difficult to address.

I am an out-of-network provider and do not accept insurance directly. I can provide a superbill that you may submit to your insurance company for possible out-of-network reimbursement, depending on your plan.
 
Because insurance benefits vary, I recommend contacting your insurance provider to ask about your out-of-network mental health benefits and reimbursement requirements.

I specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate relationship stress, major life transitions, and the effects of chronic stress on emotional connection and overall wellbeing.

• Changes in intimacy and affection

Therapy can provide space to address burnout, anxiety, emotional exhaustion, and the ways chronic stress can affect relationships, identity, and overall wellbeing.

• Adjusting to new roles and responsibilities

• Feeling disconnected from your partner during the early parenting years
   

Family Planning & Fertility-Related Stress
