Before I became a mom, I truly thought I was ready. I had the credentials: I worked as a Maternal Case Manager, supporting moms through pregnancy, helping babies meet their milestones, and offering lactation and breastfeeding support. I thought I knew what was coming.

Then motherhood happened. Cue the plot twist.

My son was born with complications and landed in the NICU. Breastfeeding was a struggle. Emotionally? I felt isolated, anxious, and like someone had swapped my carefully planned “new mom” script with an overwhelming, unpredictable reality show. I quickly realized: postpartum is no joke, and there were so many things no one had prepared me for.

Add in my child’s developmental delays, medical challenges, shifts in my relationship, and the resurfacing of my own childhood wounds—and you’ve got the perfect storm for postpartum depression and anxiety. It was a lot. Too much, really.

(Oh, and let’s not forget infertility, job transitions, identity loss, grief, and raising a child through a pandemic. Yeah. That too.)

But through it all, I learned. I grew. I found my voice as a mom. And now, I help other moms find theirs too.

I know what it’s like to question everything. To feel like you’re drowning in advice (and laundry). To see other moms on social media who look like they’ve got it all figured out and wonder, “What am I doing wrong?”

You're not doing anything wrong. You're just human. And you're not alone.

Now, I support moms—especially those navigating the messy middle of motherhood. The grief, the identity shifts, the sleep deprivation, the “terrible 2s” and the quiet moments of “I miss who I used to be.” From screen time battles to postpartum mental health, from marriage bumps to advocating for your child’s unique needs—I walk with you through it all.

In addition to my work with moms, I’ve spent years working in schools as a psychiatric social worker—supporting children from preschool to high school. I’ve worked with kids in general education, special education, and everything in between. I’ve supported hundreds of families navigating school systems, behavior challenges, social-emotional struggles, and learning differences.

I know what it’s like to feel lost in motherhood. To wonder where you went. To scroll through social media and think, “How are they nailing this and I’m barely holding it together?”

Parenthood doesn’t come with a manual—but I’m here to help you find your way. With compassion. With real talk. And with a deep belief that you can be the parent you want to be—without losing yourself along the way.

Healing starts here—because motherhood shouldn’t mean losing yourself.
