It is much harder for us to show kindness and compassion than it is to judge ourselves because we are not strong enough to push through everything with a smile. I hope to assist you with learning how to extend the kindness you give to others to yourself. I have experience with individuals across the lifespan experiencing significant emotional distress and with those struggling with transitioning between stages of life. I focus on ambiguous grief to assist anyone struggling to identify and establish the role they want to have in their own lives and create sustainable change.

For the last decade I have specialized in GRIEF and loss. This includes often hard to find support for those grieving the death of a child, the death of an adult sibling, and a death by suicide or substance use/overdose. I serve those facing anticipatory grief due to a terminal illness diagnosis and those adjusting to life-changing MEDICAL diagnoses (for themselves or a loved one). CHANGES and transitions including parenthood, re-partnering, empty-nesting, and aging in place are another focus of my work. Even positive changes can sometimes bring us anxiety and sadness and lead to feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, and "stuck".

I believe deeply in the human capacity for change, but also that we can’t always do it alone. Therapy offers a space where we can explore, make sense of things, and grow with the support and empathy we all need to grow into the people we want to be. As a long-time teacher, I have years of experience doing compassionate and reflective work with young people from all backgrounds. That work continues to shape my approach as a therapist, even as I enjoy working with adults across all stages of life.

From my perspective, as Virginia Satir stated: "Problems are not the problem, coping is the problem." This means that in order to solve problems we have not solved before, we need to think differently. The solution is in seeing how our personal worldview has helped in some situations and not so much in others. Our stories hold the key there. The problem is also that it is difficult to see how our stories have impacted our life because most are semi-conscious or unconscious. But we have our life experiences to reflect on and find clarity from. My ideal client is someone who wants to get better, thrive and find joy.

I obtained my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University. I believe that working collaboratively with the client and building an authentic rapport is critical to the counseling relationship. I want to provide an empathetic and warm space that allows an individual to slow down and name the heartaches, pain, and difficulty they are experiencing. My desire is each individual will find therapy as a soft landing spot to be seen and known.
