Grief and trauma often leave us feeling broken and damaged, alone and helpless, and fighting to just survive. You might not recognize yourself now or remember a time you didn't feel like this. Your grief may be so overwhelming that you don't even know what you feel. Either way, one thing is for sure: you're ready for some relief. You're ready to face your trauma and begin to heal. You're ready to feel the sun on your face. Most of all, you're ready to live again with a sense of hope and joy.
Clients come to me looking for someone who "gets it". I understand that you might not be able to share what's going on with those closest to you without feeling like a burden. Therapy is a safe place where you are accepted where you are on your journey to healing. We always go at your pace as you heal and learn to live this new version of life.
As an experienced grief & trauma therapist, I'll meet you wherever you are on your unique healing journey offering support, tools, and strategies aimed at helping you feel less alone, more empowered to get your needs met, and more hopeful. When you give yourself permission to grieve, you allow yourself the opportunity to heal. I'm here when you're ready.
