Grief Therapists in Cleveland Heights, OH

Life experiences can leave you feeling shattered! I am here to help you feel whole again. My ideal client is one who comes to be heard, seeking a way to cope with personal challenges that are effecting their interpersonal relationships, career, physical, emotional or spiritual functionality. I have over 16 years in Clinical Pastoral Counseling. I have worked in the healthcare field as Registered Nurse since 1983. Which has groomed me to work with clients in matters of the heart.

Everyone has experienced emotional distress at some point in his or her life. A good indicator of when it's time to seek professional help, is when stress becomes overwhelming and unmanageable. Recognizing that you need help is the first step toward restoring a healthy life balance.

I think the basis for good therapy is a collaborative relationship that fosters an environment for healing and growth. As a therapist, I strive to build this kind of trust so that you can work through grief, shame, anxiety, or any other heaviness you're carrying in a safe space. I'm passionate about working with people navigating life transitions, and about supporting people navigating grief and loss. Whether you're about to graduate from college, contemplating parenthood, or struggling with career transitions, I'd love to talk with you about how you can feel empowered and make the best choices for you.

God has given us a purpose, a vision, and a mission! As someone who has experienced adversities, I have used my own experiences to empower, and strengthen others. I will admit I do not know everything. I say this because you know your story better than I. If you allow me access to know your story, we can grow together. I acknowledge that trust is an important part in any relationship to develop so do not trust me until I have earned it. My hope is that through partnership, engagement, patience, love, understanding, respect, kindness, and teamwork we can work towards healing and self-empowerment. "Please Email if you see Waitlist" !

The Grief Recovery Method can be offered as a one-on-one service or a group experience. EMDR is another supportive technique/therapy used to address traumatic life experiences and life anxieties and stresses.
