"Debbie's approach to women is exquisitely sensitive, thoughtful and caring. Her understanding of the prenatal journey and its special meaning in a woman's life and development gives her a deep capacity for making a difference."

Gayle Peterson, MSSW, Ph.D.
Author, An Easier Childbirth and Making Healthy Families
Developer of the Preventive Prenatal Education and Counseling Program

"I sought out Debbie's help for individual counseling before my husband and I had decided whether we wanted children. She helped me explore my ambivalence about becoming a mother as well as marital issues, and, once my husband and I decided we did want children, she saw me through the harrowing process of IVF, and a good portion of my first pregnancy. Throughout, I appreciated Debbie's vast expertise in the areas of preconception, reproductive technology, pregnancy, childbirth, and parenting. She was a great source of information and resources. I found her approach grounding for my anxiety and would highly recommend her."

Counseling for Preconception

A mind-body approach to wellness incorporating counseling, education, personalized relaxation recordings, visualization and the creation of rituals. This model of counseling provides women and their partners an opportunity to explore and work with the myriad issues and emotions that commonly emerge during preconception.

  • » Explore ambivalence, fears and anxieties about pregnancy, birth or parenting
  • » Heal from prior pregnancy or birth losses
  • » Resolve previous abortion experiences
  • » Examine healthcare options

Personalized relaxation tapes, a unique component of this work, are available and can be made during sessions.
