I have extensive training in grief, anxiety, and complex trauma treatment.
Feeling tense, irritable, or drained? Have you forgotten what it was like to be free from these emotions? Chronic stress is like lugging around a large shoulder bag: the longer we carry it, the heavier it becomes, leaving us fatigued and unwell. I assist people who have been through traumatic or difficult life events in finding practical ways to lighten their load and reclaim their vitality by assisting them in making sense of their symptoms, reconnecting with their true selves, healing from unpleasant experiences, and developing effective tools for lasting change.

Life doesn't come with a manual, and like most of us, you're doing your best with the cards you've been dealt. You're motivated and eager to enhance the quality of your life. But sometimes, life's answers seem elusive, and 'proven' methods might not always resonate with your unique experiences. Just as there's no one-size-fits-all tool in a toolbox, there's no singular 'best' psychological method. For over 20 years, I've had the privilege of working with thousands of individuals. While I'm extensively trained in traditional therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, bio/neurofeedback, anxiety & OCD therapy

Grief Therapists
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.
