Hormone-Informed Therapy for Women in Huntsville, AL

Your Mood Isn’t Random…
Your Body Is Trying to Tell You Something

Hormone-Informed Therapy for Women in Huntsville, Alabama

When You Look “Fine” on the Outside but Feel Numb on the Inside

Your doctor noticed something.
Maybe they mentioned your cycle.
Maybe they said the word perimenopause.
Maybe they handed you a referral and said "this might help."

And you're here because some part of you already knew — what you've been feeling isn't just stress. It isn't just anxiety. It isn't something you can fix with a better morning routine or another supplement.

Your hormones and your mental health are not separate stories.

When estrogen drops, the inner critic gets louder.
When progesterone tanks in the luteal phase, the anxiety spikes.
When perimenopause shifts the baseline, the woman you thought you knew starts to feel unfamiliar.

This isn't weakness.
This is biology meeting biography — and it deserves real clinical attention.

You're in the right place if:

Your mood follows a pattern you can almost predict — but can't seem to change

You've been told your labs are "normal" but nothing feels normal

You're in perimenopause and grieving a version of yourself you didn't get to say goodbye to

You experience PMDD, cycle-related anxiety, or emotional crashes that feel out of proportion

You're doing everything right and still feel like you're falling apart

How we work together

Hormone-informed therapy doesn't mean we talk about your hormones every session. It means I understand that what happens in your body shapes what happens in your mind — and I hold both at the same time.

Using narrative therapy as our foundation, we'll look at the stories you've been handed about your emotions, your body, and what it means to be a woman navigating this season of life. We'll separate you from the problem. We'll find language for things that have never had names. And we'll build a new story — one where your biology isn't working against you, it's giving you information.

I also work closely with women's health providers in Huntsville. If you've been referred here, I'll communicate with your care team as appropriate and with your permission — because your mental health doesn't exist in a silo.

LET'S WORK TOGETHER

Your hormones and your mental health aren't separate problems.
When your body shifts, your whole world can feel unfamiliar.
That's not weakness. That's what brings you here.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and narrative therapist in Huntsville, AL. I specialize in working with high-achieving women whose inner lives don't match their outer ones — women who are capable, driven, and quietly falling apart.

My approach is hormone-informed because I've seen firsthand how dismissive the world can be about what happens to women's mental health across the lifespan. PMDD, perimenopause, postpartum, cycle-related mood shifts — these aren't character flaws. They're chapters. And they deserve a therapist who knows how to read them.

I'm EMDR certified, FEMM method trained, and an approved CE provider for the Alabama Board of Social Work Examiners. I work with a small, selective caseload — which means when you're my client, you have my full attention.
