Therapy for women and mothers

A place where women and mothers find support, healing, and real change

You’ve landed here because you’re feeling stuck and overwhelmed

Burdened by grief, trauma, or the challenges of motherhood, you’re searching for a safe, compassionate space to heal and regain control over your life

Hi, I’m Megan. 

Your California Therapist

This is a nurturing space where women and mothers find support through life’s most challenging seasons.

Whether it’s pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, or healing from trauma or grief, it can feel like too much all at once. I’m here to offer a safe, steady place where you can process, heal, and find your way forward in every season of your journey.

Maybe you’re in the thick of early motherhood, feeling anxious, irritable, or disconnected from who you were before. Maybe you’re navigating the quiet heartbreak of infertility or the exhaustion of another failed cycle. Or perhaps you’re carrying the weight of old trauma that now feels louder in the presence of new responsibilities, relationships, or loss. Or maybe it's the quiet weight of change, the grief of your children growing up, of roles shifting, and the part of you that wonders who you are now.

Whatever you’re holding, I want you to know you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to help you begin again. To make space for your grief, your sensitivity, your healing, and your hope, so that you can find peace and thrive.
