While I strive to be very client-centered, I know that lots of moms struggle with even knowing how they feel or what they need in the first place. For this reason I'll let you guide the conversation while I listen closely for patterns, AND I'll ask you specific questions to help you get clear on your struggles as well as your goals. Although my style is casual, I'm not the therapist that just listens and nods ;) I use ACT Therapy, body based interventions, ERP and Brainspotting, depending on whats going to best target your symptoms and suit your personality.

While I do only see clients who are in the perinatal period, I ALSO work with dads, non-birthing partners, non-binary folks and caregivers in this phase of life! I love working with non-birthing partners and working through the unique and often silent struggles and beauties of that role.

Therapy involves a diagnosis, patient/provider relationship, and an assessment of your past and present to create therapeutic goals. I am able to bill insurance for therapy if you live in Wisconsin and offer sessions in-person and virtually.

Mental health consultation is a bit more flexible because I don't have to give you a diagnosis and you don't have to live in the state of Wisconsin! Consultation involves starting with your current situation and making goals to move forward. Although I maintain strong boundaries around me being present to support you, the consultation relationship can feel more peer to peer.
