Oak Park, IL

I am an occupational therapist with training in mental health, women’s health and promoting health literacy. I am the founder and owner of Holding Both, an organization created to support individuals through secondary infertility and loss. Through my lived experience, I know that there is complexity in holding both the joys of parenting and the pain of infertility at the same time.
