Hello new parents — help is on the way! I specialize in supporting moms and dads raising littles. With over a decade in mental health, I offer hope to those tired, sleepless parents facing the wild world of parenting preschoolers and beyond. Stressed? Intimacy hibernating? Depressed? Anxious? I've been there! I was “Chad the Dad,” a stay-at-home dad for over seven fun, exhausting years! I bring firsthand insights and evidence-based approaches to create a compassionate space where we’ll work together to develop practical, lasting strategies for a little more peace (and maybe some sleep).
I offer these therapies and more: CBT: Helps manage stress, anxiety, and depression by changing negative thoughts. EFT: Improves emotional connection and communication for couples. MBSR: Reduces stress through mindfulness and staying present. ACT: Teaches accepting tough emotions while focusing on values. IPT: Addresses relationship issues role changes.
Parenthood is an amazing journey, but it can also feel overwhelming, stressful, and downright exhausting. I’ve felt that way too, and I know how tough it can be to balance everything. You don’t have to do it alone. Together, we can find a way through the challenges. If you're ready to get some custom support, I'm here to help!
