Women's Mental Health
Care for what women carry.
Understand how your health, relationships, experiences, and emotions fit together—and find a path forward that honors the whole of you.
Your body feels like it's betrayed you.
You've had the appointment where the doctor nods, orders another test, and sends you home with nothing more than "let's keep monitoring it." You've canceled plans because you couldn't predict what your body would do that day. You've explained the pain so many times that the words have started to feel hollow, like you're reciting a script instead of describing your life.
You feel overwhelmed trying to manage what's happening in your body while everything else in your life still needs you — your work, your friends and family, and yes, even trying to enjoy your life. There's no clear answer, no clean path forward to help your body feel better, and it can feel like almost no one truly understands what this is like.
Maybe it's endometriosis — the kind of pain that gets minimized until it's finally named, and even then, still doesn't come with a clear roadmap. Maybe it's the months after having a baby, when everyone keeps asking about the baby and no one asks how you are. Maybe it's one of the many diseases that plague women disproprotionately. Whatever the case, you're trying to balance what's going on for you while putting your own needs last because that's what you learned to do a long time ago.
None of that is something you should have to carry by pushing through it.
I'm somebody who gets it.
Aside from living with stage 4 endometriosis myself, I've spent years working with women navigating diseases that disproportionately affect us — PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, multiple sclerosis (MS), and perinatal exacerbations of mental health concerns.
These conditions reach far beyond the doctor's office. They radiate into your mental health, your self-esteem, your relationships, and your ability to function day to day.
In our work together, we start by mapping out what's really going on for you. I'll offer tools that can help you get through the day-to-day, and I'll be a steady support as you make sense of what you're going through. Together, we work on reducing the mental health toll of living with these conditions — so you can suffer less and make more room for joy.
Endometriosis & Chronic Pain
A body that doesn't always cooperate, and a medical system that's often slow to listen. We work on the grief, anger, and anxiety that come with chronic illness, and on rebuilding trust with a body that can feel like it's working against you.
Pregnancy & Postpartum
Pregnancy, birth, and the fourth trimester bring changes that go far beyond the physical. We make space for the parts of this transition that don't fit the highlight reel.
Relational Patterns
We target the ways mental health is impacting your relationships and explore if other learned patterns may be hindering your progress.
What healing can look like
You feel understood in your pain and your experience — not dismissed, minimized, or rushed past.
You learn to manage chronic pain, advocate for yourself in doctor's appointments, and cope with high-pain days without it derailing everything else.
Your mental health symptoms — the ones tied to living with a chronic illness — start to ease, so they no longer run the show.
You reconnect with family and friends in spite of your illness, building intimacy instead of isolation.
You start trusting your body again, even on the days it's still unpredictable.
You make more room for the parts of your life that have nothing to do with your diagnosis — joy, connection, rest.
Common questions
I live with stage 4 endometriosis myself, alongside my clinical training — so I understand the lived experience firsthand, not just from the outside looking in. I also work with women managing other conditions that disproportionately affect women, including PCOS, fibroids, and MS.
Yes — I enjoy collaborating with physicians, and for clients managing comorbid medical conditions, that coordination can make a real difference. We'll talk early on about how much communication feels helpful to you, then coordinate care in a way that fits your comfort level.
No. Many people come in mid-diagnosis process, or after years of being told nothing is wrong. You don't need a confirmed diagnosis to start this work.
IRT helps identify where old relational patterns are amplifying stress, guilt, or self-neglect around your health — patterns that often make chronic illness or postpartum struggles even heavier to carry.
