Are you suffering from chronic anxiety, depression, or post traumatic stress (PTSD) as a result of your child's death? A child's death due to suicide or accidental overdose leaves parents feeling that their lives have been shattered by loss, confusion, devastation of the entire family, and inconsolable sadness. With skillful psychotherapeutic counseling and support, successful treatment is possible. My Doctoral studies and research, clinical training, experience working, as well as personal experience, equips me with critical knowledge of effective treatment modalities.

You know how most smart, accomplished professionals have a lot going right in their lives but there is this one "if only" part of their lives that keeps them up at night. They are feeling worried, frustrated & anxious. And they are such wonderful people that you just wish they could have what they want. Maybe this feels familiar & you can relate to wanting something to be different so badly. But for some reason it just doesn't seem to change. This is when we feel disconnected from our most powerful, carefree selves & we're not sure how to find relief.

Are you or your family under stress, or does personal tension or relational conflict rule the day?
