Sometimes, life is more intense than ever expected. You have found this to be a difficult time as you are faced with a great loss in your life. You deserve a therapist that is well trained in your life experience. I focus exclusively on grief - grief that accompanies the loss of a loved one and transitioning into a caregiver role. Groups are an extremely helpful way to learning to live with grief and find your way as you live with the loss of your loved one. Online Groups & Self-Guided Programs are created to lift barriers to quality support for caregivers to folks in rural areas to busy professionals to create life balance.

There comes a time when we realize that friends and family can't be our only outlet. Sometimes they rush to "fix us" or don't fully understand. Some of us don't have any support at all. We ultimately find that what we need is a neutral person with whom we can unload our burdens, free from judgement and critique. We need strategies to help us cope with difficult feelings and heal from the past. We find that once we begin this important work, we've created a path toward self acceptance, balance and empowerment.

Reaching out for help during our vulnerable moments can be overwhelming and intimidating. Sometimes we can convince ourselves that we should figure it out on our own or that things aren't bad enough to need help and we can find ourselves reluctant to take that next step. Regardless of where you are on your healing journey, I will meet you there and join beside you to work through the things that feel unbearable and impossible to overcome on your own.

Even the Courageous Can Hurt! You are on this page, most likely, because you are hurting. Perhaps you suffered a loss, or are at a loss, anxious, depressed or confused by the direction your life is taking. Maybe your pain is due to your own choices or actions. Perhaps it is caused by the choices and actions of others. Sometimes things just happen. Seeking help means you are taking responsibility for your happiness and well-being. That is the first step in healing and it is courageous. We recognize that you are in pain and provide an environment where you feel safe to peel away the layers of your hurt.
