I am a fully Licensed Clinical Psychologist and R.N. in private practice in Georgia and Michigan. I worked as a psychologist in MI for 24 years in a large psychiatric mental health inpatient/outpatient facility, moved to GA in 2013 and established a private practice. For over 2 decades I presented workshops and seminars nationally at numerous professional organizations with a specialty in the field of dying, grief, and loss. I was widowed at 46 and have co-authored 5 books on grief and 1 on dying. I see clients online and in-person for a variety of counseling needs and co-facilitate educational grief groups (including GriefShare).
I work with individuals, couples, adolescents, young adults and families dealing with not only loss issues, but also with anxiety, depression, relationship conflicts in school, marriage, family, or with others, work or health issues, adjustment and self-esteem issues, along with a multitude of other concerns.
My approach is eclectic with a strong cognitive-behavioral base incorporating a variety of different methods and strategies dependent on the particular treatment goals formulated conjointly with the client. Other descriptors of approaches I utilize are a solution-focused and a brief therapy model containing psycho-dynamic element infused with congruence.

Groups
Grief Support

I co-facilitate a 13 week GriefShare support group with Dr. Robert DeVries, pastor and seminary professor (emeritus) from the beginning of October to the end of January the following year. We follow that with a 7 week educational support group of our own design entitled "Navigating Your Journey Through Grief." We provide a widowed support group monthly online through Widowed Persons Services, Grand Rapids, MI. The online groups are open to anyone actively grieving regardless of their location.
