Introduction

Navigating family-building can present significant challenges, particularly when faced with fertility complications, medical interventions, or pregnancy loss. These experiences may deeply impact your self-esteem and cause a strain in your relationships, often eliciting feelings of shame, anxiety, grief, and resentment. While these emotional responses are common and understandable, they can be hard to cope with and may lead to isolation and disconnection. I offer support and guidance to individuals and couples as they navigate these complex circumstances. My approach is strength-based and culturally sensitive and rooted in deep empathy for the often unseen pain associated with these experiences. With specialized training in anxiety disorders and perinatal mental health, I tailor interventions to your unique needs, cultural background, and personal goals. Whether you are undergoing treatment, recovering from loss, or considering your next steps, I offer a supportive space to process your experiences and discover a path forward. I welcome individuals and couples of all genders, sexual orientations, and family-building journeys, including LGBTQIA+ clients and single parents by choice. Virtual therapy is available for clients in Ohio.
