"It was not until I had my first child that I realized how mental health assistance relating to pregnancy, pregnancy-related mental illness, parenting, and intergenerational trauma is not easily accessible or discussed enough. Throughout my own journey and career, I have envisioned making a positive difference in the perinatal world."
What do you do for fun?
"I enjoy reading, watching documentaries on literally anything, and taking naps when I can squeeze one in."

(she/her)
You deserve care that sees the whole picture, not just the surface. We know that factors like race, gender identity, sexuality, socioeconomic status, & disability can shape reproductive experiences in powerful ways. Here you’ll find therapists who recognize those realities & are committed to creating a space where your story is honored without judgment.
At Holding New Therapy, we know reproductive journeys aren’t always what you imagined. Alongside the joy, there can be loss, exhaustion, anxiety, or a sense that everything about your world has shifted overnight.
