• Life is all about change. We are constantly undergoing shifts in our identity that may make us question our beliefs, values, and even sense of self. The most seismic shifts occur during pregnancy and postpartum— today, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) affect 1 in 5 birthing and 1 in 10 non-birthing parents, though many go without support.

    Amari Psychotherapy offers individual and couples therapy to address life transitions; perinatal depression, anxiety, and OCD; birth trauma; grief and loss; fertility challenges; sexual disconnection; co-parenting conflict; and other related areas of concern. We also work with adolescents and adults seeking general mental health support.

  • Treatment here favors a more macro approach to mental health, exploring structural barriers, environmental challenges, and constructed narratives rather than framing symptoms as an individual deficit or problem to be solved. The focus is on meaning-making, using a blend of psychodynamic theory, family systems, existentialism, and emotionally-focused therapy (EFT). Treatment goals are clearly outlined and created collaboratively to address your mental health needs. Couples therapy is heavily influenced by The Gottman Method: a combination of individual sessions at intake, with joint sessions focused on communication styles, repair, and bids for connection. Overall, the aim is to understand what feeling better would look like for you, and how to support and sustain your wellness journey.
