Find Yourself Again & Improve Your Mental Health

Motherhood can be exhausting. You might feel like you’re drowning in responsibilities, always giving but never receiving, and wondering when it’s your turn to rest.

Therapy can help you break free from burnout, manage stress, and reclaim the vibrant, confident version of yourself you’ve been missing.

I am currently accepting new clients! Click below to get started.

To better serve moms like you, I’ve pursued advanced training and certification as a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Specialist (PMH-C).

Here’s My Motto

Taking care of yourself is the most important thing you can do for the people you love.

Motherhood is beautiful, but it can also feel overwhelming, lonely, and exhausting. Somewhere between diaper changes and sleepless nights, it’s easy to lose sight of who you are outside of being a mom.

Therapy offers a supportive and judgment-free space to put yourself first. Together, we’ll uncover what’s draining your energy, heal from past trauma, identify the areas where you’re ready to set boundaries, and build habits and coping skills that nourish your body, mind, and spirit.

In our sessions, we'll work together to:

Heal postpartum depression, anxiety, or other challenges like birth trauma or childhood trauma.

Overcome mom guilt and prioritize yourself without feeling selfish.

Feel more present and less overwhelmed in your daily life.

Reconnect with your identity and values outside of motherhood.

I wish every mom knew

You deserve an amazing motherhood experience.

As a mom of two and a therapist in Arizona, I know firsthand how easy it is to lose yourself in the endless demands of motherhood.

That’s why I specialize in helping moms just like you reclaim their sense of self, set boundaries, and build lives that feel both manageable and joyful.

I’m trained in evidence-based therapeutic approaches such as Brainspotting and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy that help women reduce stress, challenge perfectionism, and cultivate self-care routines that actually stick.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, exhausted, or just ready to feel like yourself again, I’d love to help. Let’s work together to create a version of motherhood that feels sustainable and fulfilling.

Here's what you can expect ...

Therapy with me is all about giving you space to talk, reflect, and rediscover your confidence. Together, we’ll tackle the stressors in your life and create a plan that feels manageable and meaningful for you.

All sessions are held either in my office in Queen Creek, or via telehealth. Like most specialty providers, I do not accept insurance. But I can provide you with a superbill you can submit to your insurance provider for possible reimbursement. Price per session is $195.

It’s time to feel good about yourself and your life again.

Confidentiality

A safe, welcoming space to be honest about your struggles without fear of judgment. Everything you share will be kept confidential!

Convenience

I offer morning and afternoon sessions at my office on the border of Mesa and Queen Creek, AZ, or virtually via Zoom for anyone living in Arizona.

Coping skills

I’m not just going to be a listening ear. I believe my job is to help you improve your ability to manage the never ending demands of motherhood with helpful coping skills and mindset shifts.

Compassion

I’m a therapist, but I am also a Mom who understands the unique challenges of motherhood. Whatever type of mom you are, you are welcome in my office.

Whether you're feeling lost, burnt out, or simply ready for a change, therapy can help you find clarity, calm, and confidence.

The FAQs

How much do you charge?

I charge $195 for a 50-minute session. For more information on rates and insurance, check out the Rates & FAQ page.

What kinds of issues do moms usually talk about in therapy?

Moms often come to therapy to work through anxiety, postpartum depression, burnout, mom guilt, relationship challenges, and the pressure to do it all perfectly. In therapy, you can talk openly about anything. I’m a mom, too and licensed therapist who has heard and seen it all. I’m your safe place to help you sort throug it all, from feeling resentful or disconnected to wanting more balance or joy in your daily life.

How do I know if I need therapy or if I’m just tired?

It’s normal to feel tired as a mom, but if exhaustion, stress, or irritability are starting to affect your relationships, confidence, or daily functioning, therapy can help. There’s been a longstanding stigma that therapy is just for crisis. It’s not. Thankfully that stigma has started to fade over the past few years. Therapy is for any mom who wants to feel calmer, more grounded, and more connected to herself.

I already feel guilty for taking any time for myself. Will therapy make me feel even more guilty for wanting time for myself?

Absolutely not. In therapy, we’ll actually work through mom guilt, which is so common! So you can learn to take care of yourself, which you should, without feeling selfish. Therapy helps you see that when you feel better, your whole family benefits. You’re modeling self-care and emotional health for your kids.

What if I’m not sure I have time for therapy?

Making time for therapy is an investment in yourself and your family. Even one hour a week can make a profound difference in how you feel and function.

Do you offer virtual therapy for moms in Arizona?

Yes! I offer virtual therapy sessions via secure telehealth for any mom living in Arizona. This makes it easier to fit therapy into your schedule without worrying about childcare or travel time.

What’s the difference between regular stress and burnout in motherhood?

Stress is a normal part of life, but burnout happens when the demands never stop and you don’t have time to recover. If you feel emotionally drained, detached, or like you’ve lost your spark, you may be experiencing burnout. Therapy can help you regain energy, set boundaries, and find joy again.

Can therapy help me feel more like myself again?

Yes! Many moms say they’ve “lost themselves” in motherhood. In therapy, we’ll explore who you are outside of your roles and responsibilities, reconnect you with your values, and help you rediscover confidence, purpose, and fulfillment beyond parenting.

What if I’ve tried therapy before and it didn’t help?

That’s okay. Every therapist and approach is different. My therapy style combines compassion with practical tools like Brainspotting and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you heal deeper emotional patterns while also building real-world coping skills. We’ll go at your pace and find what truly works for you.
