Perinatal and Maternal Mental Health

The journey to becoming a parent is one of the most transformative experiences of a person’s life, but it can also bring moments of overwhelm, uncertainty, and emotional challenges. Whether you’re navigating the ups and downs of infertility treatment, experiencing challenges from pregnancy or birthing, grieving the loss of a little one, adjusting to life with a baby, or facing the complexities of motherhood, your mental and emotional well-being is incredibly important—and we’re here to support you through it.

Sexual Abuse and Assault

The impact of sexual abuse and assault can leave deep emotional scars, making it difficult to heal and move forward. We understand the complexity and pain of these experiences. Whether you’re processing trauma from the past or navigating the aftermath of recent events, we offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space to help you reclaim your sense of safety, strength, and control. Through personalized therapy, we are here to guide you on your journey toward healing, empowering you to rebuild and restore your sense of self.

Susie did more than just listen—she equipped me with practical tools and techniques to manage my anxiety beyond her office. Through guided therapies like EMDR, I uncovered the root causes, allowing me to approach my anxiety with greater compassion and less shame. I appreciated the clarity and direction she brought to our sessions, ensuring I always understood our goals, the steps to achieve them, and my progress along the way. Susie is the first therapist I’ve worked with where I experienced truly noticeable improvement. After working with her for over a year, I now navigate life’s challenges with greater confidence, creativity, and curiosity.

Take care of your mental health
