I specialize in PTSD, Complex Trauma, Dissociation, Grief, Substance Abuse/Addiction, Anxiety & Depression.
Healing is a process. It is not something that happens immediately or overnight. Think about how long it took to become wounded. Think about how your body heals from an illness or injury. It is a process of healing, and depending on the complexity of the issue or issues, depends on how long the healing process will take. The same way are bodies are designed for healing, emotionally and mentally we are designed for healing as well. We can support the healing process by resting, taking care of ourselves, and being patient. Healing is not necessarily an easy process but well worth the effort. And you are not alone.

Through my nearly three decades of walking with people experiencing grief and loss, and trauma - either firsthand or vicariously - I have learned to hold closely to these fundamentals: First, I believe people cannot be, and do not want to be, rescued from their pain. No one can take it from them; it is part of their journey. Second, I believe the real enemy of resilience is not trauma alone. The crueler nemesis is the sense of isolation that often accompanies it. Few things are worse than feeling alone and helpless in difficult times. Few things give more hope than a connection with loving, compassionate co-travelers.

I specialize in working with individuals 14 years and up who struggle with Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, and Grief and Bereavement.
Everyone needs a place where they can speak freely without feeling judged. I know I want that in my own life and my goal is to come to each session and provide that for my clients. I believe that our lives have the potential to be magnificent, but it takes work to pull out of the things that have hurt us or held us back. I am always honest with my clients, and I truly want the best for each one. None of us will escape life unscathed, but this is all the more reason to find a counselor that is going to understand and do their best to be there with you and help you work through the hard things.

Are you struggling to create the adventurous, meaningful life you imagined, free of anxiety, depression and irritability? I work with ambitious, professional women who want to have better boundaries, healthier relationships and improved self-esteem. My clients reduce people-pleasing behaviors, stabilize their mood and experience greater confidence as they navigate life's seasons and transitions (including motherhood, faith crisis, divorce, loss and much more). Together, we set an expectation that you'll not only be coping better, but having to cope less as we get to the root of the issue with weekly therapy sessions.

You are worth the investment! Some studies suggest that over 80% of all physical symptoms may have emotional or psychological roots. Sometimes anxiety and depression are just our body's way of letting us know a change is needed. If your relationships or life situations are causing you more distress than joy, therapy can help. We all experience pain, loss, and feelings of rejection. Although these feelings are normal, if neglected they can quickly become barriers to happiness and growth.

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.
