Reproductive Psychotherapist, Associate
Originally from the South, I have called the Seattle area home for the past decade. In my personal time, I enjoy crafting, puzzles, cozy mysteries, and quality time with my spouse, daughter, and cats.
My own pandemic pregnancy and traumatic birth experience sparked my interest in reproductive mental health. In graduate school, I worked with reproductive clients in practicum positions with Perinatal Support WA's warm line and as a therapist with Zane Counseling. I am pleased to join Reimagine Reproductive Mental Health and support clients through their own unique journeys.
I have experience supporting clients across the reproductive spectrum, particularly with depression, anxiety, traumatic birth experiences, perinatal grief and loss, and life and relationship transitions. My therapeutic style draws on my background as a facilitator in social movement spaces, prior to this career change. I bring a warm and collaborative approach to sessions, balancing structure with flexibility, and holding space for clients’ personal growth as well as the environment that shapes our experiences.
Credentials:
I am licensed to provide therapy and counseling in Washington state as a Licensed Associate Independent Clinical Social Worker, and I receive ongoing supervision from a credentialed and approved supervisor, Lesli Desai, LICSW, PMH-C. I received a BA in English from Furman University in 2009, an MS in Labor Studies from the University of Massachusetts in 2014, and an MSW from the University of Washington in 2025.
