I work with individuals, families, and couples in most areas of struggle with a focus on grief, loss and trauma.
Struggling with trauma or loss of any kind can become debilitating and can lead to isolation, anxiety, anger, and depression. The physical and mental struggle can take its toll and we can begin to feel lost and disconnected from friends and family. Whether it is you alone, your children, or an entire family system struggling, there is hope. My passion is to help hurting people, and my mission is to help people reconnect with their strength and courage to heal. Let's walk through this together.

Therapy, including early intervention, can help mitigate the effects of stress, loss/grief, traumatic experiences across the lifespan, and life changes.
People of all ages, from the youngest to the oldest, experience and feel things in life. My goal is to help you and/or your child understand and work through those experiences and feelings. I work with all ages including caregivers and their little ones. Becoming a parent yourself, the young adult years, and life changes/transitions can stir up emotions and past experiences. Let’s chat to see if we’re a good fit, so we can begin this journey of working through those emotions, past experiences, life changes/transitions, and behaviors together.

Sometimes families are in need of a little adjustment of expectations or routine. Other times significant events can result in heart broken or traumatized children and adolescents, and feelings of helplessness for the whole family. Family systems can be made strong and resilient, capable of weathering the fiercest storms. Each child and family system is unique, and having someone caring and competent able to guide and support can be crucial.

Grief Therapists

How long does therapy take for grief?

There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.

When should you seek therapy for grief?

Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.

Can grief be managed without therapy?

Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.

What happens if grief is left untreated?

Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
