About

I am a licensed clinical social worker,  trained at Columbia University and at the Yale Child Study Center to be thoughtful about assessment, diagnosis when needed, and treatment planning as well as offering ongoing support and psychotherapy.  I am passionate about my work with women with a specific focus on maternal mental health. I have extensive experience and expertise working with women who struggle through fertility challenges; I also specialize in high risk pregnancy, loss and bereavement, NICU hospitalizations, chronic illness and parenting children with special needs.  My work is attachment based, relationship and trauma informed, and draws from my professional experience in a variety of work settings.  I am currently pursing my Perinatal Mental Health Certification and have completed advanced coursework in the field through Postpartum Support International and The Seleni Institute. My style is warm and approachable.  I see patients in person only at my office in NE Portland.
