Has grief stolen your joy? Has trauma ripped the rug out from beneath you? Have you experienced an unexpected or sudden loss? If so, I’d bet you’re overwhelmed with how to find your footing in a world that doesn’t slow down. I’d also guess you’ve begun to distance yourself from friends and family because you feel misunderstood, and maybe even minimized, in how you're navigating the aftermath. The weight of grief and trauma can be paralyzing, causing us to disconnect from the support we need. I'm Heather, and I’d love to help shoulder some of that weight while we integrate the grief and trauma in a way that doesn’t feel so heavy.

Hey ya’ll, I'm Elizabeth and I hope to make your search for the right therapist a little less frustrating. Finding someone you connect with can be difficult, so I try to be upfront about my style and approach. I am very laid back but also straightforward with my clients, and I don’t use a one-size-fits-all strategy. If you are looking for a therapist who uses worksheets, gives lots of homework, or sticks to a standardized treatment plan (no offense to these therapists), I’m probably not for you. Instead, I will work with you to identify the areas of your life that aren’t working well and are leading you to feel whatever feeling it

Struggling? You deserve the peace that comes with understanding your own story and the relief of realizing you are no longer repeating the same patterns. Working with me, you will not get a therapist who just listens and nods. I am bold and authentic, and will be honest with you as we work together. I offer long term, slow paced, intentional work. Studies show that the single biggest predictor of successful therapeutic outcomes is simply the strength of the relationship between therapist and client. Therapy is not something that a therapist “does” to you, but rather is a co-created relationship build on mutual trust and respect.
