You Deserve to Feel

Hi, I’m Ellie

As a mom of two, I know how overwhelming and anxious motherhood can feel.

As a therapist, I’m here to help you breathe—I mean really breathe. Sometimes that includes breathing through the chaos with a little laughter, because let’s be real…motherhood is a lot.

Through personalized, mind-body therapy, we’ll work together to help you feel more confident, set boundaries without guilt, and regulate the emotions that feel all-consuming.

You deserve to show up grounded, present, and fully you—not just for your family, but for yourself.

It’s time to reclaim who you are and find the joy in motherhood.
