I work with clients who struggle to maintain healthy relationships, process grief and loss, or live fully due to trauma related experiences.
Many of us have concerns that keep us awake at night, cause anxiety or conflict that interferes with our personal and professional lives as we strive to have happiness, peace and balance. And, often we need roadmap and compass, along with that positive force inside us to get us moving. Does this sound familiar? If so, you are certainly not alone!
Therapy doesn't have to be scary when you have a therapeutic partner that is committed and trained to not only identify your concerns, but to also focus on our unrealized strengths. Afterall, these are the nuggets that have kept you going.....but are often unseen.

Maybe there’s a quiet heaviness of grief, confusion, anxiety & exhaustion that lingers no matter what you do.
So many of us have been taught to disconnect from our bodies, shaped by years of being told who to be, how to act, and what to carry. Add in generational pressure and systemic forces that devalue care (like hustle culture, rigid gender norms, and ongoing inequality) &simply surviving can feel overwhelming. These experiences deserve compassion, not judgment.

I specialize in supporting adolescents and adults who have experienced sexual assault and relationship abuse. Many of my clients feel lost, emotionally overwhelmed, and struggle with understanding how their identities have changed. They often experience a sense of isolation from their support networks and find it challenging to access joy and relaxation in their lives. Additionally, they may have developed a fear of men or relationships in general, making it difficult for them to feel connected and safe in their own bodies. I also work with clients who are wanting to heal childhood trauma from growing up in dysfunctional families.

Grief Therapists
How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.
When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.
Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.
What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
