Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in loss and grief, my treatment approach is grounded in empathy, validation, and support. Through compassionate listening and validation of emotions, I create a safe space for individuals to express their feelings of sadness, anger, guilt, and confusion associated with their loss. Utilizing techniques from grief therapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), I help clients navigate the grieving process, identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts, and develop coping strategies to manage their emotions. Additionally, I provide psychoeducation about the stages of grief and normalize the range of emotions experienced during mourning. Collaboration with clients may also involve exploring rituals or activities that honor the memory of the deceased and facilitate healing. My goal is to accompany individuals on their journey through grief, fostering resilience, meaning-making, and eventual adaptation to life without their loved one.

Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Loss is inevitable. We all die and we all lose people, relationships, and states of being that we once loved. If we open ourselves to live an authentic, honest, interdependent life, we are sure to experience loss and grief. Many of us fear it so much that we develop a multitude of ways to avoid it, strike a connection balance that we believe will help us protect ourselves later (yet that often robs our joy in the meantime), and use substances or other numbing techniques to help us avoid the complicated process of grief. I believe we can all benefit from learning to appreciate that loss is inevitable, and to learn to grieve in a way that enables us to move forward with compassion and fulfillment.

Loss and grief can be all encompassing. Grief does not have a timeline or any particular presentation. It can manifest as deep sadness, physical pain, anger, loss of interest in previous activities, etc. It is my hope that we can work together and I can compassionately support you in your grieving journey.
