As a therapist specializing in the unique challenges of aging, I work with middle-aged and older adult women navigating the complexities of this phase of life. Whether you're facing a new diagnosis, experiencing changes in cognition, managing loneliness, or caregiving for an aging parent, I'm here to help. Together, we’ll explore how these challenges impact your relationships, including the shifting dynamics with adult children, and develop strategies to help you feel more empowered in your journey. If you're looking for a compassionate and experienced guide through the complexities of aging, I invite you to reach out.
My practice is rooted in the belief that everyone deserves to age with dignity, grace, and support. I understand that the aging process brings both emotional and practical changes, and my goal is to support you in managing these transitions while honoring your strengths and resilience.
I lost my father to Lewy Body Dementia and my mother to COVID-19. As their caregiver, I found the experience both demanding and fulfilling. Without the support of therapy, I'm not sure how I would have endured those long days. The aging process presents unique challenges, and it would be my privilege to assist you as you navigate this season of your life.
