About

I specialize in Complex Grief and Relational Trauma. No matter the cause, when the heartache of grief settles in it can leave you feeling hopeless, numb and emotionally overwhelmed. People who love and care about you may not understand what you are going through or how to help. When grief is more complicated, such as losing someone who was the source of emotional pain and trauma, it can leave you feeling confused and conflicted. Without support to resolve these feelings the quality of your life and relationships may suffer. If you are feeling anxiety, stress, shame, fear of abandonment, intense longing or ungrounded there is hope! Using a Collaborative Approach I have a passion for helping people move through their grief rather than feeling stuck in it. I draw upon treatment modalities such as Complicated Grief Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Trauma Informed Therapy, Mindfulness and Parts Work. Mostly, I am here to listen and bear witness to your personal story.
