Therapists in Tucson, AZ

I have worked in the field of loss, grief and bereavement for over 25 years in both agency and private practice settings. Serving and supporting grieving folks, whether the loss is from a death, divorce, job loss, health loss or any other form of loss has been an honor and a privilege. Reaching out to a professional for any reason takes courage and a willingness to be vulnerable. Holding space for folks as they connect to their core sense of authenticity, vulnerability, courage, empathy and belonging is vital. The client is the "expert" in their own life; working with someone to connect to that inner knowledge is a joy.

I also use mindfulness techniques and encourage the client to approach life holistically (mind, body, spirit) to obtain optimum goals of peace and happiness.

So many expectations, the constant “pull” from every area of your life….and the world we live in just keeps giving you more than you can handle and you feel you're not good enough. You want a safe place to sort through it all, but when is there even time to go to therapy to work on all this stress?

There are times in life where we feel extremely alone, lonely, misunderstood, unhappy and beyond frustrated. Sometimes these overwhelming feelings can be about others; and sometimes about ourselves. These situations can arise because of: anxiety, change, depression, grief, conflict, and immense life challenges. At times, these problems are too much to face and bear alone. I specialize in helping clients through overwhelming problems and challenges. I collaborate with my clients to find changes they want to make, how they want to "see and live" their lives. My approach to therapy is a positive, hopeful, open approach.

Life can be very stressful particularly since the pandemic; you may feel scared, worried, helpless and even hopeless.

If this resonates with you, counseling is an excellent choice to learn the coping skills you need to deal with adversity.

Accepting new clients. I join with clients in a safe, non-judgmental and collaborative way.

Navigating challenges in our lives can often manifest as sadness, anxiety, worry about the future, and ways of coping that no longer serve us.

Getting to the root of our issues not only allows healing, but for transformation into the best version of you.
