Grief can feel incredibly isolating—like no one truly understands, or as if you’re being asked to “move on” before you're ready. It can affect your relationships, drain your energy, and take a toll on your mental health. You might find yourself questioning your faith, asking “why me,” or feeling weighed down by guilt, regret, and endless “what ifs.” Grief often shows up in unexpected ways, including anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm, physical pain or difficulty sleeping. If you’re feeling lost, stuck, or unseen—you’re not alone, and you don’t have to navigate this on your own.
I bring both personal and professional experience with grief and loss, and I understand just how complex, painful, and deeply personal the journey can be. My role is to offer a safe, compassionate space where your pain is honored and your story is heard. Together, we’ll work toward healing and rediscovering hope through meaningful connection.
As you embark on your path to healing, remember that hope is always within reach. I know all too well that grief’s pain never fully fades, but I hope to ease the weight and help you find your light in the darkness. Together, we’ll transform pain into love, build resilience, and honor your journey with compassion.

I primarily utilize a relational and client-centered approach. I believe that the strongest predictor of success in therapy is the relationship between therapist and client. I prioritize building a trusting, supportive connection, hold space for your challenges and strengths, and empower you to grow, reflect, and lead a more fulfilling life.
