Therapy and Wellness Services in Walnut Creek, CA

Finding the right support β€” the kind that actually fits your life, your story, and what you're carrying right now β€” isn't easy. Whether you're looking for a therapist who truly understands infertility, a couples counselor who gets first responder family dynamics, or a certified personal trainer who knows what it means to work out through IVF or postpartum recovery, you've found someone who gets all of it. Here, healing happens across the whole person β€” mind, body, and relationship. Serving Walnut Creek, Concord, Lafayette, Oakley, Danville, and the greater Contra Costa County and East Bay area, in-person and via telehealth.

Individual Therapy

You don't have to white-knuckle your way through this alone. In individual therapy sessions, we use specially tailored, client-centered interventions that blend traditional talk therapy, mindfulness, and somatic practices β€” creating space for real empowerment, healing, and growth at a pace that works for you.

Whether you're navigating the emotional weight of infertility and IVF, managing anxiety and stress as part of a first responder family, processing pregnancy loss, or facing personal struggles like self-doubt and life transitions, therapy is where you get to finally put it all down. No performing. No protecting anyone from your feelings. Just honest, compassionate support rooted in where you actually are.

In-person sessions available in Walnut Creek, CA. Telehealth therapy available throughout California. Day and select early evening appointments offered.

Couples & Family Therapy | Infertility, First Responder & Relationship Counseling

Relationships take the hit when life gets hard β€” and infertility and first responder stress are two of the heaviest things a relationship can carry. In couples and family therapy, I provide a safe, judgment-free space where connection can be rebuilt, communication can open back up, and both people can feel heard β€” not just managed.

Whether you're facing communication breakdowns, navigating the relational strain of fertility treatments, processing grief together after pregnancy loss, or trying to reconnect after years of first responder shift work and survival mode β€” this is where we do that work. Together, we'll strengthen the foundations of empathy, respect, and trust that make relationships actually last. Not just coexist. Last.

I work with couples and families on infertility and IVF-related relationship strain, first responder couples counseling, communication and conflict resolution, life transitions, grief, and rebuilding intimacy and connection.

Most personal trainers don't understand infertility. Most therapists don't train bodies. As a certified personal trainer β€” with specializations in Pre & Postnatal Fitness, Pelvic Floor Corrective Exercise, and wellness coaching informed by graduate-level mental health training β€” I offer something genuinely rare in the East Bay: fitness support that actually understands what you're going through, physically and emotionally.

This isn't "just exercise more and stress less." This is personalized, holistic wellness coaching that meets your body where it is β€” whether that's mid-IVF cycle, six weeks postpartum, or trying to stay strong while holding a first responder family together.

Sessions are available in-home across the East Bay, at Shred Shed in Oakley CA, virtually, and at my private home gym.


Fertility-Friendly Fitness & IVF Wellness Coaching | East Bay, CA

For women and couples navigating infertility, IVF, fertility treatments, or pregnancy loss in the Walnut Creek and East Bay area β€” this is fitness designed around your protocol, your body, and your mental load. I know the conflicting advice. I know the fear around exercising during stimulation. I know the exhaustion after retrieval and the grief that makes getting off the couch feel impossible.

We cut through the noise together and build something sustainable, supportive, and realistic. Customized plans may include fertility-friendly movement, stress reduction through exercise, body-image support, and general wellness guidance that complements β€” not competes with β€” your fertility journey.

First Responder Family Fitness & Wellness Coaching

Shift work wrecks routines. High-stress environments deplete the body. And carving out time for your own health when you're already holding everything together can feel impossible. I build programs around real life β€” not perfect conditions. Flexible, realistic, and designed for the East Bay first responder family who needs to stay strong without adding one more overwhelming thing to the list.

Pre & Postnatal Personal Training | Pelvic Floor Corrective Exercise Specialist

As a certified Pre & Postnatal Specialist and Pelvic Floor Corrective Exercise Specialist serving Walnut Creek, Oakley, and the East Bay, I offer something most personal trainers simply aren't qualified to provide. Pelvic floor dysfunction, diastasis recti, core weakness, and postpartum recovery are real β€” and they deserve more than a generic fitness class.

Whether you're preparing your body for IVF or fertility treatments, recovering after a C-section or vaginal delivery, managing pelvic floor symptoms like leaking or prolapse, or rebuilding strength after pregnancy loss, sessions are thoughtfully built around your specific needs, your stage, and your goals. For those on a fertility journey, understanding how to train your body before, during, and after treatments can make a meaningful difference in how you feel throughout the process β€” physically and emotionally.
