Grief Therapists in Henrico, VA

Are worries, insecurities, or sadness affecting your quality of life? Are you wanting relief from these stressors and to increase happiness in your own life? I like to help clients discover the negative messages/beliefs that they have about themselves and the world that they, often unknowingly, have been carrying around with them. Examining these messages, discerning what is true and helpful and what is not, is freeing. A major goal of therapy is to have your positive sense of self well up from within.

Full Circle Grief Center's mission is to provide comprehensive professional bereavement support to children, adults, families, and communities. Since 2008, we have facilitated support groups and educational programs in Richmond and the surrounding communities. In 2018, our services expanded to include individual counseling for children (ages 3-17) and adults grieving the death of a loved one. During this one-on-one service, our therapists strive to provide a personal approach to grief support, working to understand your current needs and offering a safe place of acceptance to work through these needs.

I offer individual, couples, and group therapy. In addition to ameliorating symptoms, decreasing emotional pain, and helping to solve difficult problems, experiential therapy, along with mindfulness and somatic awareness can facilitate significant personal growth and increased wellness. My approach is broadly humanistic, meaning we seek together in a safe and secure environment, mutual understanding of you as a whole person, honing your internal "voice" and tapping into your existing strengths. Once we identify who you really are inside and what is most important to you, the path to bringing your life into alignment becomes clearer.

Life’s challenges may cause us to react and respond in many different ways. Our current situation may or may not be in our immediate control, but when we look at our life, long-term, it will be the decisions that we make today that set the course of the overall outcome.
