About this provider
Clients I Work With
At Alma de Madre, I support women navigating pregnancy, postpartum, and the emotional transitions of motherhood. I work with clients experiencing postpartum anxiety or depression, birth trauma, pregnancy loss, identity changes after becoming a parent, and the overwhelm that can come with caring for both a baby and themselves. I provide a compassionate space for mothers who want support, healing, and a deeper connection with themselves during this important life stage.
Approach
At Alma de Madre, therapy begins with the belief that motherhood is powerful—but it can also be overwhelming, isolating, and deeply transformative. My approach is rooted in creating a space where mothers can show up exactly as they are, without pressure to “have it together” or pretend everything feels joyful all the time.
More About My Practice
At Alma de Madre, Perinatal and Postpartum Therapy is designed to support mothers navigating pregnancy, birth, and the emotional shifts that follow. Sessions focus on processing anxiety, identity changes, exhaustion, and postpartum challenges in a compassionate, judgment-free space. With trauma-informed care, mothers can reconnect with themselves, release guilt, and move toward healing while adjusting to the realities of motherhood.
