Great to meet you!

Grief can often feel isolating—especially when it lingers long after a loss. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like your loss just won’t ease up, you’re not alone. I specialize in working with adults navigating grief, especially those experiencing prolonged or complicated grief and life transitions. Whether you're struggling with the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or a major life shift, I will support and promote your healing and growth as you adapt to the major change in your life.

My approach to therapy

With over 15 years of experience, I offer an integrative, client-centered approach rooted in Prolonged Grief Disorder Treatment, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Psychoanalytic Theory. Within a safe and compassionate space, we will process your grief, explore what is preventing you from moving forward, and help you regain a sense of purpose, healthy fulfillment and hope.

What you can expect from me

If you are at a pivotal point in your life and are considering therapy, I welcome you to take that first step. I would be honored to walk alongside you during your journey. Together we can process your grief, honor your experience, and support your healing at your own pace and in your own way.
