Many of you will experience dramatic and sometimes shocking changes in your or your loved one's health, relationships or careers. I have over 28 years of experience helping people and their families cope with a wide variety of chronic and terminal illness, relationship changes, adjustment, grief and loss. Using your strengths, I will help you work through these difficult changes to help you adjust to their impact on you and your loved ones.
I have over 28 years experience in many areas including grief & loss, transplant, chronic illness adjustment for you & your family, congenital heart dx, HIV/AIDS, LGBTQ+, relationships, & professional lifestyle management. I use a strengths based, reality-therapy approach that includes elements of CBT, trauma-informed, relational-cultural therapy, and DBT.
I work to create a respectful, supportive and trusting environment where you can openly discuss your feelings and concerns. My goal is to find what works best for your situation and enhance your personal strengths while challenging you to adapt in new ways.
