I'm passionate about perinatal mental health and supporting those on their fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting journeys.
You may have found that due to some recent life circumstance, you are feeling stressed, anxious, lonely, overwhelmed, or even ashamed. These are natural, human emotions, which can arise from a host of reasons including fertility challenges, reproductive loss, adjusting to parenthood, work-related stress, starting college, or relationship issues. It can feel isolating, and you deserve to be seen and understood. The good news is you don’t have to go through it alone, and you were never meant to.

Relationships aren't always easy. It seems they start out so good. You talked. You laughed. You had fun together. Everything once seemed so perfect. But now . . . you may feel you can't even talk without getting into an argument. Maybe he just did something that doesn't feel right. You perhaps feel like you're walking on eggshells all the time. What I do know is that no relationship is perfect all the time and relationships do go through seasons of stress and difficulty. It's very easy to get overwhelmed with the demands of life and relationships.

As I complete this profile, I’m struggling with labeling myself in some categories: the human experience & connectedness can be much deeper than our similarities. My goal is always to provide a supportive and safe environment that allows you to explore your thoughts, feelings, behaviors (patterns), and find their connections to one another. I also strongly believe that validating our experiences can really free us to change the trajectory of our lives, into the direction we want it to go -as you seek resolution for the issues that bring to therapy.

Parenting Therapists

What does therapy for parenting look like?

Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.

When should a parent seek therapy?

When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.

How long does therapy take for parenting problems?

Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?

Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
