I am excited to announce that I am officially certified as a perinatal mental health provider by Postpartum Support International!
My pursuit of the PMH-C was born (pun intended) from my own personal journey into motherhood. I had my first child during the summer of 2020 at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, and have since welcomed two more children into my family. Becoming a mother has fundamentally changed my life in ways I never thought possible. I went from someone who luxuriated in sleeping in on the weekends, and enjoying quiet mornings with my coffee, to a life sleep deprivation, new sources of anxiety, and constant demands for attention from three under the age of five.
Before I had my own children, I worked with countless mothers and parents, helping them through the issues they faced. But it was not until I experienced the role personally, that I could truly appreciate the challenges, both external and internal, that we face. Becoming a mother is a wondrous, joyful experience, filled with ups and downs, excitement and fear, and hopes about the future. In the same breath, it can also be a source of mental, physical, and interpersonal struggles. As a PMH provider, I am committed to helping you navigate the life changing journey of becoming a parent. Everyone’s experience is unique and everyone deserves support and care, physically and emotionally, from their healthcare providers. It would be my honor and privilege to provide that care through yours.
