Hello, thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I’m so sorry that you’re looking for a grief therapist, and have a lot of respect for your courage. I’ve spent the last ten years deep in the muddy waters of loss, devoted to the skillful practice of grieving in community. I am a board-certified thanatologist who has studied grief from embodied, academic, cultural, and psychotherapeutic perspectives. I’ve worked with grief across various sectors— in hospitals and hospices, in community deathcare, as an apprentice farmer and Bruce Trail captain amidst an ongoing climate crisis, and on the frontlines of the opioid epidemic.
All of the teachings I’ve received from grieving and dying people always bring me back to one guiding principle: people should be honoured as the experts of their own lives. That means, I won’t minimize your loss by pressuring you to find the silver lining. As I’m sure you have discovered, tending to grief requires a lot more nuance than that.
Instead, I work with you to deepen your understanding of grief, and help you discern what place it might have in your life. In the process, I can offer you a carefully curated collection of grief theories, grassroots knowledges, and community skills. If my approach resonates with you, I hope you’ll reach out. You deserve devoted and competent grief support.

In our initial conversations, I'll ask you to tell me about who you are, and what kinds of things matter to you. If those things aren't clear right now, we can start by getting clear on those things first. From there, we can begin examining your grief from a foundation that is grounded in your values. The way forward usually becomes clear once we are reminded of what we stand for.

I love supporting grieving people in making sense of their experience, and claiming their agency within it. I do this by drawing from an eclectic mix of theories and modalities that make the most sense for the person I'm consulting with. As someone who values and prioritizes equity, I tend to favour narrative therapy in my work for its collaborative, playful, and rebellious spirit.
