Infertility/Postpartum Depression

Working with infertility, I help patients deal with every aspect of this difficult journey. Clients may be exploring assisted reproductive methods such as IVF, egg freezing, sperm or egg donation, or gestational surrogacy. My goal is to understand the reproductive story of each of my clients and then help provide emotional support, concrete problem solving skills and decision-making guidance around specific reproductive challenges.

Most people assume that pregnancy and immediately following the birth of one’s baby should be a time of pure joy. For many women, it isn’t.  Women with postpartum depression often feel ashamed to share their feelings which can lead to isolation and hopelessness. The role of therapy is to help you navigate these complicated feelings by offering a safe space where you can express your fears and worries as well as your hopes and dreams.

Depression/Anxiety

Helping patients understand feelings of sadness, anxiety or just being overwhelmed are just some of the issues I will address in therapy.  I will work with you to uncover the root causes behind your thoughts and feelings as well as provide you with concrete and practical tools that you can use to understand and eventually combat your overwhelming emotions.

Life Transitions

Life changes such as ending a long term relationship, job loss or transitioning from either high school to college or college to the “real world” are often accompanied by confusion, sadness and overwhelming stress. The role of therapy here is to help outline your major concerns and begin to understand the emotional development and insight one needs to achieve these personal goals.
