My specialties are: alcoholism, various addictions, physical, sexual and verbal abuse, emotional and psychological issues, relationships, life transitions, grief, trauma, and chronic pain and overlapping conditions.
When I meet someone for the first time, I create a safe place free of judgement and open for them to tell their story. As they speak, I hear their words and voice tone. I look at their face, eyes, hands, feet, whole body, energy and see what they are also telling me. Then I develop a sense of who they are.
A safe environment to tell your story and express feelings. A place for establishing a connection with others. A forum for understanding common myths about grief.

A place for learning new coping skills, relaxation techniques, stress management skills, and daily survival skills. An opportunity for personal writing and/or journaling. A sounding board where members can present ongoing or new concerns.

Based upon Transpersonal Psychology, Self-Realization Therapy involves meditation, journaling, life story work, the use of self-help workbooks, and psychoeducation, in addition to group cognitive processing therapy techniques, to form a circle of trust within which patients learn to gain self-control, insight, self-esteem, and self-confidence. The method also includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, educating patients about the connections between our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, how to test the accuracy of their perceptions, and how to use self-talk and mind-body work to alleviate distress.

A structured 16-week program that involves educating patients about complicated grief and how it's treated, exploring their grief reactions, complicated grief symptoms, and patterns of adjustment or maladjustment. The process encourages patients to hold imagined conversations with those lost, and to tell and retell the circumstances of the death, while learning to tell the story with less and less distress- a process called systematic desensitization. CGT has been proven effective for enhancing the ability to cope and process thoughts and emotions, focus on self-positive vs. self-negative reminiscence, and reduce feelings of blame and guilt.

Welcome! I am glad you are here and it takes courage to take that first step to reach out for support, especially if you might be feeling depressed, anxious, or paralyzed with fear of how to move forward. Sometimes, we may find ourselves in unexpected situations, toxic relationships or work environments, trapped in addiction, or find ourselves stuck in self-sabatoge or repeating the same unhealthy patterns. You might feel alienated, alone, or unable to open up to friends or family. Counseling can help you navigate difficult situations, help you gain clarity, and begin to heal and move forward with life again.
This group is for men who have basic sobriety from addiction and want to become more effective in other areas of their lives. The group is limited to 5 and requires a 6 month weekly commitment. Written assignments and discussions are designed to assist in making decisions, attaining goals, grieving losses, & resolving resentments..

You’re searching for meaning or purpose in life. Perhaps you want to trust your intuition more. You feel at a crossroads. You’ve been successful in your work but feel a bit unsatisfied. You’re stable but lacking joie de vivre. You’re a creative, but not feeling all that creative right now. You sense this isn't something your sharp intellect or talk therapy can help you with. You feel your body holds wisdom for you, but you don’t know how to access it. I put decades of experience in psychotherapy and depth, creative, and contemplative processes in service of guiding and witnessing your unfolding into a more authentic, at-peace you.

Grief Support Groups
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.
