We live in a grief-phobic society. As such, grief and loss is typically avoided and dismissed. Because of this, well-intentioned people in our lives often end up saying the wrong things, even hurtful things, to try and comfort us. Unfortunately, the way our society handles grief can be quite impatient, shaming, and isolating. That’s why I want you to know you are not along in your grief journey—and I can handle your feelings! I am able to hold space for your pain and suffering.
I can help you find ways to: • live with and carry your grief • understand the grieving process • cherish and stay connected (in new ways) with your loved one • cope with complex and traumatic grief • release suppressed grief that has become “stuck” in the body • experience post-traumatic growth (in cases of traumatic grief)
If you are looking for a compassionate, non-judgmental and expert guide to support you and help you resolve problems like grief/loss, anxiety, trauma and/or substance use, I invite you to reach out. I have two decades of clinical experience in mental health and addictions. I am passionate about helping people connect with their authentic selves!
