There's a particular kind of exhaustion that comes from being the strong one in every season of change, the one everyone else leans on while you quietly figure out how to hold it together. I work with adults and seniors moving through life transitions, grief, anxiety, depression, and the strain that change can put on relationships and families. A lot of my clients are navigating an ending and a beginning at the same time, an empty nest, an aging parent, a loss, a version of life that doesn't look like it used to, and trying to make sense of who they are on the other side of it. I understand this from the inside as well as the outside, since I'm in my own season of change as an empty nester caring for aging parents.

Together, we'll work on recognizing the strengths you already have, even when you can't see them yourself. I focus especially on grief and life transitions, helping you process loss at your own pace, without a timeline and without pressure to be "over it" by some arbitrary point. You'll leave our work with real clarity about the patterns keeping you stuck and practical tools you can use between sessions, so we're building something, not just talking in circles. Before this work, I spent over a decade in education, including six years supporting students and families through college transitions, and that experience shaped how closely I pay attention to what a transition actually costs a person. Clients who do best with me are ready to be honest about where they are and open to moving from feeling stuck to feeling empowered, one step at a time.

Our first session is simply about being heard. There's no pressure to have it all figured out, just space to say what's actually going on and start making sense of it together. If any of this sounds like where you are right now, I'd love to talk. Reach out whenever you're ready, there's no wrong time to start.
