Therapy for Adults Experiencing Reproductive Challenges in San Jose, CA

Hi, I’m Amy

Hi, I’m Amy

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California helping people enhance their well-being while building their families. Whether you’re struggling with fertility, trying to conceive or maintain a pregnancy, pregnant after infertility & loss, or postpartum, I can help you learn strategies to manage the emotional rollercoaster, build clear, firm boundaries, and develop personally-tailored self-care practices. Over time, you will learn to make well-informed decisions regarding your life path, become more confident in who you are, how you feel, and where you're headed.

I experienced emotional struggles while trying to conceive, while pregnant, and postpartum. I was anxious, pessimistic, and irritable. I began specializing in reproductive mental health because I knew first-hand how difficult the journey can be. I wanted to provide the specialized, truly empathic care deserving of people who work so hard to build their families.

It’s hard to believe that so many women struggle with conception, pregnancy, and postpartum and yet many of them don’t have their emotional needs addressed by their care team; they fall into the trap of believing their suffering is normal and there’s nothing they can do about it.

I am certified in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International and trained as a fertility counselor through the American Society for Reproductive Medicine. I also provide psychoeducational consultations for third-party reproduction (use of donor eggs, sperm, embryos, and/or surrogates/gestational carriers).
