& Eating Disorder Therapy

Motherhood is beautiful. It is also incredibly hard. Whether you are navigating the heavy fog of postpartum anxiety, drowning under the invisible mental load of a demanding career, or at war with your postpartum body— you don’t have to do it alone.
Therapy for Postpartum Depression and Anxiety in Orange County
You thought this would feel natural.
You thought you could handle it all.
Instead, you just feel exhausted...
Let’s be honest for a moment. The pressure to have it all together right now is overwhelming.
You are surrounded by messages that tell you to "enjoy every moment," excel in your career, and "bounce back" to your pre-baby body immediately.
​
Oh, and don't forget to make it all look effortless.​​
​
​​​​​​But behind closed doors, your reality looks different.
Does any of this sound familiar?
The Invisible Mental Load
You are a high-achieving professional, yet you feel like you are failing at work and failing at home.
You carry 90% of the household mental load and are running on caffeine and resentment.
The Postpartum Fog
You feel "touched out," anxious, and depleted. Your mind won't turn off, and you secretly grieve the freedom and identity you had before becoming a mother.
The Body Image Battle
The pressure to shrink your postpartum body is suffocating. When the exhaustion of motherhood and work feels completely out of control, you find yourself trying to control your food, or numbing your burnout with late-night pantry binges.
If you are nodding your head, please hear this:
You are not failing. You are navigating a massive physical, emotional, and professional collision.
And it is okay to ask for help.
Specialized Support for the Whole Mother
At Nourish Mental Health, I specialize in helping mothers heal, set fierce boundaries, and find themselves again.
This is a completely judgment-free, weight-inclusive space where you don't have to pretend everything is perfect.
How I Can Help You
Perinatal &
Postpartum Therapy
Finding solid ground when you feel overwhelmed by postpartum depression, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or birth trauma. Together we will work together to help you process the massive identity shift of "matrescence."
Body Image & Eating Disorder Recovery
A safe, anti-diet harbor for women navigating disordered eating, chronic dieting, or intense postpartum body grief. We will help you rebuild a peaceful relationship with food so it no longer consumes your mental energy.
Working Mom Burnout
& Couples Counseling
Dismantling perfectionism and recovering from chronic nervous system dysregulation.
I also help couples communicate through the exhaustion and actively rebalance the household workload.
Therapy That Feels Like a Deep Exhale
​You spend all day managing everyone else's needs. Therapy is the one hour of the week that is entirely about you.
​
Through secure online telehealth (because I know finding childcare or packing up a baby is a hurdle) or in my calm, comfortable Orange County office, we will work together to rebuild your confidence, set healthy boundaries, and bring joy back into your daily life.
​
You can show up in your sweatpants or your work blazer.* You can cry. You can say the things out loud that you are too scared to say to anyone else.​
* Don't worry, as a working mom myself, I don't always look this put together in our sessions either.
