I strive to work at your pace and with what you desire. I also approach therapy in an individualized manner, according to your preferences and needs.

I specialize in grief and loss, end of life, illness as well as with the perinatal population (pregnancy & postpartum). Much of my approach in therapy with these areas involves providing support in an empathetic and objective manner. My goal is to also provide guidance with meaning making, gaining awareness, working towards goals and moving forward, at your pace.
