Are you and and/or you and your partner struggling through a big life transition? Have you experienced a death, a loss of a loved one, pregnancy, or pet, or are facing a scary health diagnosis? These events can cause a great deal of stress and grief. Having a safe space to talk and feel supported can make a big difference. Times of loss and transition can also present unique opportunities for growth and new ways of living your life. Sometimes, in fact, it can be the catalyst for a deeper and more meaningful life. You might not see that potential now, but you can get there.
As a cancer survivor and survivor of pregnancy loss, I can understand the challenges that can arise when faced with something unexpected. I also specialize in working with adults regarding sexuality and relationship challenges, couples counseling, pet loss and connection to animals, Ketamine-assisted therapy, and support for other providers.
Above all I’m here to listen and help you feel supported wherever you are in your process. I work collaboratively with clients to develop ideas for therapy and honor your voice and needs. I integrate animals and nature into my practice when it makes sense to do so. I invite you to reach out via email or phone and let’s talk.
