Specialties: Grief, Oncology, Sex Therapy, LGBTQIA+, Life Transitions,

Introduction

We grieve any time life changes directions, and even positive changes can bring about difficult feelings. You may have experienced the death of a loved one, or a life transition like an illness, divorce, or job change. You may be struggling with the demands of work, adjusting to a new relationship, or considering a new chapter in life. Specializing in work with healthcare providers, and with experience in oncology, infant loss, anticipatory loss, and sudden death, I provide you with support, insights, treatment, education, and guidance during times of transition and beyond. While some clients make the choice to pursue working with a therapist because of a specific life event or situation, others make the choice because of a desire for self-growth and a general improvement in well-being. Regardless of your reason, I welcome you to contact me. It's not easy to seek support. I'm easy-going, approachable, and genuinely want you to feel better. Send me a message and we can figure out how to make that happen.
