When you take that first step towards getting help, it's a sign of your strength and a demonstration of your hope that, with some help, significant change is possible. I specialize in working with young adults, adults, and seniors experiencing depression, anxiety, relationship problems, grief and loss, and major life transitions.

Have you recently lost someone or something important to you? Grief is our internal response to loss. It's the mix of thoughts and emotions that come up when someone we care about passes away. Our ability to grieve comes from our capacity to both give and receive love. Many of us have heard that we're supposed to "move on" from grief. But the truth is, grief isn't something you just "move on" from. Instead, we incorporate our grief by letting ourselves feel its impact. It's like our grief guides us, rather than us trying to control it. Grief becomes a part of us when we welcome it, rather than trying to put a set time limit on it.
