About
As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, Yael offers individual and couples counseling to support clients navigating the life-changing journey of parenthood. Her clients are hopeful, expectant and new mothers and fathers who are struggling with the stressors this time brings. Whether you are facing the heartbreak of infertility or miscarriage, experiencing anxiety and depression during pregnancy or postpartum, or lacking confidence as a new parent, therapy with Yael can help. Yael's work as a therapist began at a nonprofit community health center which supported women struggling with anxiety and depression, relationships, life transitions and more. She later received specialized training at a nonprofit parenting center, where she worked with new and seasoned parents alike, ran therapy groups, and supported individuals and couples through relational challenges, parenting struggles and personal hardship. After opening her own practice in 2021, she focused on supporting women and couples throughout all stages of their family building journeys. Yael has worked with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds and non-traditional relationship structures, and is LGBTQIA+ affirming.
