Behavioral Wellness for Women

Do you...


During Pregnancy...

Find yourself constantly checking for something to be wrong?

Replaying appointments in your head, wondering if you missed something important?

Googling symptoms late at night—even when you know it makes your anxiety worse?

Do you feel on edge for no clear reason, like your mind won’t fully settle?

Are you having thoughts like... “What if something happens to the baby and I don’t catch it in time?” or “Am I making the wrong decision?”

Do you feel stuck between wanting relief from anxiety and worrying about whether treatment is safe during pregnancy?

Have you been told “this is normal,” but it feels more constant, more intense, and harder to turn off than you expected?

Understanding how pregnancy-related hormonal changes, sleep disruption, and heightened awareness can amplify anxiety is the first step toward feeling more steady, clear, and in control.

After having a baby...

Feel like your mind is always “on,” scanning, checking, thinking ahead?

Are you constantly checking if your baby is breathing, even when you know they’re okay?

Do you snap more easily than you used to—and then feel guilty about it afterward?

Find yourself lying in bed exhausted, but unable to fully relax because your thoughts won’t slow down?

Do you feel isolated or unsupported in your new role as a mother, even when people are around you?

Are intrusive thoughts or constant worry making it hard to feel present or connected with your baby?

Do you have thoughts like “Am I a bad mom?” or “Why does this feel so much harder than I thought it would?”
 Find yourself stuck in a cycle of self-doubt—questioning your decisions, your reactions, and whether you’re doing this “right”?

Do you feel pressure to enjoy this time, but instead feel overwhelmed, irritable, or unlike yourself?

Do you catch yourself wondering, “Is this normal?”—but not getting a clear answer?

These patterns are common in the postpartum period, but that doesn’t mean you have to stay stuck in them. With the right approach, it’s possible to feel more present, more steady, and more confident in yourself again.

Before your cycle...

Notice a shift where your mood drops, your patience disappears, and everything feels harder to manage?

Feel like a different version of yourself for part of the month—and then question why it keeps happening?

Find that anxiety, irritability, or low mood shows up in a pattern you can’t ignore anymore?

Do you experience intense mood swings or anxiety leading up to your menstrual cycle?

Are you frustrated by feelings of irritability, sadness, or anger that seem to come on quickly and without a clear trigger?

Do small things suddenly feel overwhelming or harder to tolerate?

Do your reactions feel stronger than usual, even when you logically know they don’t match the situation?

Do you find yourself thinking “What is wrong with me?” or “Why does this keep happening?”

—only to feel more like yourself again once your period starts?

Does this monthly pattern start to impact your relationships, your work, or how you see yourself?

Understanding that these symptoms are often driven by predictable hormonal shifts allows for a more targeted approach—so you can experience more consistency and control throughout the month.

In perimenopause...

Wake up in the middle of the night and struggle to fall back asleep?

Feel more irritable, mentally foggy, or less focused than you used to be?

Sense that something feels “off,” but haven’t been given a clear explanation for why?

Do you feel like your body is changing in ways you can’t fully predict or control?

Are you experiencing shifts in mood, sleep, or energy that don’t match how you’ve functioned in the past?

Are you forgetting things more often or having trouble concentrating in ways that are starting to affect your confidence or performance?

Do you feel more emotionally reactive or overwhelmed by things that didn’t affect you the same way before?

Do you find yourself questioning your identity—especially as your role shifts or your life looks different than it used to?

Have you been told this is “just part of getting older,” but that explanation doesn’t feel complete or helpful?

These changes are often driven by hormonal fluctuations that directly impact sleep, mood, and cognitive function. With a clear understanding of what’s happening, treatment can be more precise and effective—helping you feel more like yourself again.

If you’ve been trying to hold it together while feeling like something is off, there is an explanation—and a way forward.

I specialize in working with high-functioning women navigating pregnancy, postpartum changes, PMDD, and perimenopause—who feel anxious, overwhelmed, or unlike themselves, but don’t have clear answers why.

Together, we create a plan that helps you understand what’s actually driving your symptoms—so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
