Great to meet you!

Grief doesn't follow a script, and it isn't limited to death. It shows up after a divorce, a diagnosis, a miscarriage, an estrangement, a career you thought you'd have, a version of your life that didn't happen. If something ended and you're still carrying the weight of it, especially if it left you feeling stuck, on edge, or disconnected from yourself, I’m here for you. I specialize in grief, loss, and trauma, including traumatic grief (you know - the kind that hits when loss and trauma tangle together and neither one lets you fully process the other).

My approach to therapy

My approach draws on EMDR, relational therapy, and somatic work, because grief and trauma don't just live in your thoughts. They live in your body and in how you connect with people. Healing has to reach all three.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we’ll get to know each other, discuss what brought you to therapy, and start building a treatment plan together. If you're carrying a loss that doesn't fit neatly into how other people perceive grief, or a trauma that's tangled up in it, I'm here to listen.
