When working with clients, I rely heavily on the therapeutic relationship. I believe the catalyst for growth is the bond between client and therapist. A therapeutic alliance promotes emotional expression, honesty, and it allows clients to take the risks necessary for growth in a supportive environment. To help my clients, I use cognitive-behavioral techniques (e.g., examining which thoughts and behaviors contribute to and take away from your experience), mindfulness (e.g., becoming more aware of yourself in a nonjudgmental way) and relaxation training.

Perhaps you're tired of the same old thing: You walk into a therapist's office, sit down and wonder, "Can this person really help?" In my office, I may be the expert, with a PhD in clinical psychology and almost 20 years of experience, but my expertise is in guiding you toward your own wisdom and your own concept of healing. If you struggle with inauthentic relationships that are disconnected, empty or wanting, know that our work is about connection, authenticity and creating a full rich life. Common struggles I see are anxiety, depression and trauma in adults, kids and couples. Bring your family, your partner, even your pets.

I have enjoyed counseling, playing with and learning from children, adolescents and their grown ups for the past twenty years. As a mother and therapist, I understand the magic and the challenges of childhood and parenting and the not so magical struggles that children and their families face. No matter our age, life presents many obstacles and opportunities to grow. In the overwhelming confusion, we can lose sight of all the things we are doing right. Through gentleness, compassion and empathy, I can help you find the answers already inside of you, experience joy, strengthen your relationships and have fun while doing so.

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.
