I help people work through issues associated with trauma, depression, anxiety and loss.
My greatest hope for people is that they realize investing in one's self is the most precious gift. Entering into therapy can be frightening to some and it takes courage to ask for help. I have a great deal of faith in people and know that anyone who wants to grow, learn and heal from the inside out can do so. My approach is holistic, encompassing the psychological, emotional, physical and spiritual aspects of self.

When it comes to grief, depression, and end-of-life/caregiving, I help clients to see a way through it.
I believe what people need to be well in life is to feel heard, understood, and accepted for who they are. I provide this to my clients through active and reflective listening, powerful questioning to provoke deeper thinking about one's challenges, and manageable practices to help you understand your own thoughts and beliefs about your challenges. When struggling with challenging issues such as end-of-life, grief, and depression, life can feel heavy and unmanageable. Clarifying one's needs and values can be a good starting point for creating goals to work toward. Having measurable goals provides purpose when things seem hopeless.

With 30 years of experience treating trauma and grief, I find that Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing provides relief more rapidly than traditional talk therapies. I work with adults in short term individual tele-health treatment. Due to limited availability, appropriate referrals include folks who don't experience interfering problems such as substance abuse, suicidal thinking or a diagnosis of Chronic Complex PTSD. If these or similar issues require treatment, or if you are looking for long term support, please consider maintaining a primary therapist and speaking with me about a round of EMDR as an adjunct therapy.

New parents can struggle as they cope with the demands of a new baby amidst the challenges of little sleep, anxiety, loss of connection, and trouble maintaining their own wellbeing.
Each and every day we are faced with life challenges. When welcoming a new life or saying goodbye to a loved one is part of our every day, it is important to have support that respects your emotions, life choices, your values and honors your specific goals. In my perinatal, postpartum and grief work with clients, I have developed a unique understanding of the many competing emotions - love, sadness, anger, exhaustion, resentment and more. If you are pregnant or postpartum you may struggle with the emotional roller coaster that comes with having a newborn. If you are grieving you may feel devastated or even numb.

I have been working as a therapist and clinical supervisor for more than thirty years. I love helping people discover their hidden skills, strengths and values which may have become lost in life’s struggles. Whatever the issue, my job is to assist you in realizing you have the capacity to untangle and manage whatever brings you to my office. My approach involves separating the person from the problem; helping people manage the kinds of negative thoughts we all have which can increase stress, tell us bad things about ourselves, or convince us to do things that are not in our best interest.

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.
