About Breea

Her clinical work is grounded in Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP) and Perinatal Child-Parent Psychotherapy, approaches that strengthen caregiver-child relationships and support mamas through the emotional realities of pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and early parenting. She is also trained in Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) and holds her Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C).

Breea provides clinical supervision for unlicensed clinicians working toward licensure and reflective practice supervision for those seeking endorsement in infant mental health. She is deeply committed to building the next generation of culturally attuned perinatal mental health providers.

She is a wife and proud mother of two, and her personal experience as a mama informs everything she does in this field.
