Introduction

I work with people navigating major life transitions, anxiety, despair, loss, and grief. Those facing their own loss of health, impending death or the death of a loved one. I work with people who are dealing with the issues of aging and those managing caregiver stressors. I also work with people seeking new solutions to life-long issues. My work as a psychotherapist is a convergence of my education, training, and personal life experiences. Working with individuals, families, children and facilitating bereavement groups at hospice for several years, in addition to previously owning a small business geared towards helping elders age in place, formed my understand of the many effects of grief. While grief is uniquely expressed by each person, this universal experience is often endured in isolation as our families, friends and communities are often ill-equipped to adequately support us. I find a tremendous amount of purpose in holding space for those who are grieving. I utilize a collaborative, strengths-based, and holistic approach with clients. Working holistically means acknowledging the connections between mind, body, spirit and environment. Where appropriate I incorporate mindfulness practices, poetry, art therapy, and use of metaphor and analogy. Clients typically experience me as active, direct and authentic. ACTIVE: I engage during sessions by asking questions, offering coping tools, and tracking important information. DIRECT: I work with you to talk about the things being left unsaid and encourage feedback. AUTHENTIC: I am a version of my real self, not a professional persona.
