I will incorporate your values, culture, traditions, and faith/ spirituality into our work as/if you choose.
For the last decade I have specialized in GRIEF and loss. This includes often hard to find support for those grieving the death of a child, the death of an adult sibling, and a death by suicide or substance use/overdose. I serve those facing anticipatory grief due to a terminal illness diagnosis and those adjusting to life-changing MEDICAL diagnoses (for themselves or a loved one). CHANGES and transitions including parenthood, re-partnering, empty-nesting, and aging in place are another focus of my work. Even positive changes can sometimes bring us anxiety and sadness and lead to feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, and "stuck".

Your life, your concerns and your goals are of utmost importance when you choose a therapist. Finding the right fit makes a huge difference. I have more than 20 years of experience counseling individuals, couples, and families. I am well equipped and highly motivated to guide you as you achieve your goals. Your concerns are immediately addressed when you speak with me. I take time to get to know you and work to combine counseling theories and techniques to individually work with you. I have no cookie cutter treatment plans. My doctoral thesis focused on clinical outcomes.

Spirituality Therapists
What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?
Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.
What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?
There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualization, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.
Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?
Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.
How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?
Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
