Perinatal mental health therapy for women in Gig Harbor and Washington State

…because the journey into motherhood doesn’t come with GPS directions.

As a certified Perinatal Mental Health Therapist in Washington (PMH-C), I bring specialized training and a deep commitment to supporting mothers and families through the various challenges associated with fertility, pregnancy, and the transition to motherhood.

The journey often comes with twists, turns and unexpected hurdles. My expertise encompasses a broad range of issues, including those experienced by individuals facing difficulties with fertility and miscarriage, as well as new parents adjusting to the demands and changes of parenthood.

In my practice, I frequently work with new mothers as they navigate the complex and often demanding transition to parenthood. This includes addressing a variety of postpartum challenges that can arise, such as postpartum depression, which can significantly affect mood and functioning; postpartum anxiety, which may involve persistent worry and anxiety; and irritability or postpartum rage, which can impact relationships and overall well-being. Some clients are processing challenging, unexpected or traumatic birth experiences.

Additionally, I assist clients in managing communication difficulties that may emerge as they adjust to new roles and responsibilities, and in making necessary identity adjustments that come with the significant life changes of becoming a parent.

Through tailored interventions and a supportive approach, I partner with my clients to tap into their intuition and confidence. Reach out to schedule a free consultation today.
