Finding Hope was created to provide a safe and comfortable setting for people to explore their grief and loss. For those seeking a path through grief and wanting to explore life after a loss and what that means for them. Providing therapeutic support, clinical experience, and a passion for helping others through their journey.
I have 5 years experience working for the hospital with cancer, palliative care, and hospice patients. During that time I've worked closely with patients, family members, caregivers, and friends who were primary support for loved ones with terminal diagnoses. Providing grief recovery and support as they explore how they have been effected by loss.
I started my journey as a Navy veteran and pursued a degree that would allow me to help others. After 5 years working with veterans I joined our local hospital team. Finding Hope was created to help more people access services. My goal is to provide quality counseling services to those currently struggling with depression, anxiety, and grief.
