About Me

A loss in our lives can cause a surprisingly amount of emotional distress. Grief is not linear and often lasts beyond what is socially “expected.” Are you grieving the death of a loved one, loss of your job, or the end of a relationship? Have you lost your home or has your life been altered and you’re grieving the time before that transition? Is your grief showing up in ways that impact your ability sleep, think, eat, and function day to day? I want you to know that these are all normal symptoms of grief and sometimes we need extra support to move through our grief in a way that feels in alignment with ourselves and current needs.

In our work together, we will build practical tools, deeply explore emotions, and increase resilience to help you find relief and move toward the meaningful changes you seek.

I was drawn to this work as a result of my own personal and challenging experiences growing up. There were many helpers in my life along the way and I strive to be one of those helpers in your life. Despite the almost 20 years as a Social Worker, I am continually inspired by my clients’ capacity for healing, and I believe you also have that capacity.

When I’m not in session, you might find me riding my bike outside (only in the warmer months!), purging my kids’ toys when they’re not looking, or listening to an audiobook.

Are you feeling ready to begin?

Let’s schedule a 30 minute phone call where you can share what’s going on in your life and determine if therapy is the right next step.

Be sure to call or click the “Contact me” button at the bottom of the page and I’ll get back to you within 24 hours.

Even if I’m not the right fit for a therapist for you, I will help you find who is. I look forward to connecting with you soon.
