Specialized Therapy Support for NICU Parents
As a therapist with over a decade of experience supporting families in the NICU, I understand the unique journey you're on. Your baby may have arrived earlier than expected, or perhaps you're facing complex medical challenges like HIE (Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy) or your little one requires specialized interventions such as ECMO. Some families I support are navigating genetic conditions like Trisomy 21 or other rare genetic disorders. Whatever brings you to the NICU, this experience can feel overwhelming.
Having worked alongside countless families in the NICU, I've learned that every family's story is different, and every parent's experience matters.
What makes NICU parenting particularly challenging is balancing hope with uncertainty, joy with worry, and the desire to be strong while allowing yourself to process complex emotions. Through our work together, I can offer you a safe space to navigate these feelings while drawing on proven strategies that have helped many NICU parents find their footing during this intense time.
My extensive background in NICU support means I understand not just the emotional landscape, but also the practical realities - from navigating medical terminology to building relationships with your care team, and finding your voice as your baby's strongest advocate. I've supported families through both expected and unexpected neonatal loss, and understand the profound grief and complexity of this experience.
Just as you're showing up every day for your little one, you deserve support showing up for yourself too. Taking care of your emotional wellbeing isn't just self-care – it's an essential part of being the parent you want to be. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, isolated, processing a devastating diagnosis, grieving a loss, or simply need a compassionate ear from someone who understands the NICU journey, I'm here to help.
