Would you like the opportunity to meet like-minded mothers who are learning, doing, and achieving their personal and professional goals?! Then join me and dozens of other amazing women for the Yes We Can Conference 2024 happening on April 14th at the Boca Town Center Mall.
Whether you are a first time parent or not, all mothers can relate to the experience of trying to balance their personal life and their professional aspirations. At this event you will get to hear from local ‘mompreneurs’ aka women in business who have succeeded in bridging the roles between both worlds.
Featured panelist!
I am so excited to be a part of a select group of women who will be discussing their journeys and contributions to their community. What I hope to promote to conferences goers is prioritizing needs that contribute to having a healthy wellbeing. My role as a mental health counselor is first, to help people be in a better place psychologically and physically, so then they can set attainable goals both personally and professionally. It is much more difficult to succeed career-wise if we are not mentally fit do so. I would encourage every pre and postpartum mother to have at least one, but preferably more than one counseling session with a therapist to check in on their mental health before taking on more responsibilities.

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.
