Motherhood is beautiful. It is also completely overstimulating. Let's unburden your nervous system. As a Perinatal Mental Health Certified (PMH-C) therapist, I help mothers across Virginia through pregnancy, postpartum, and the identity earthquake of matrescence — postpartum anxiety and depression, intrusive thoughts, birth trauma, rage, and the loneliness no one warned you about. You don't have to earn help by falling apart first.

Modern motherhood asks women to do the impossible and then feel guilty for struggling. Parenting support with me isn't about fixing you or handing you another checklist; it's about untangling the 'good girl' conditioning, the hyper-independence, and the invisible load so you can parent from a steadier, more grounded place.

I'm EMDR certified through EMDRIA and use it for trauma, anxiety, birth trauma, and the old stories underneath 'I'm not enough.' If weekly therapy has felt like maintenance, EMDR is how we get to actual movement.
