Therapy as a safe space to process loss and it's profound impact across all areas of life. Help clients stay connected to safe natural supports and practice healthy coping and self care. Rebuild and restore a sense of stability, recognize and honor the range of emotions that come with grief and loss as valid, foster hope for the future.
The grief we feel is often in proportion to the love we had, which often means we grieve deeply. Each experience of grief is unique - the loss of a child, spouse, parent, sibling, friend, or career will impact you in ways others may not understand. In time, you will come to find meaning and purpose in the midst of the loss. Until then, I hope to help you carry the pain of your loss and create a safe place to express and experience each aspect of your grief.
Marriage and Family Therapist, LAMFT, Licensed Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
I am sorry for your loss and thankful you are here. After the loss of a loved one, your family and friends will try to help but may do more damage. They expect you to move on, to get back to things as normal, yet things will never be normal again. Your response to death will not be the same as anyone else's, and your loss is just as unique. I help individuals and families walk through the terrain of grief by offering a space to share your thoughts, regrets, dreams, and all the things no-one else can help you process.
Everyone processes grief or loss in their own way, so it is important to find an empathetic therapist who can help you even when you feel like your identity has been destroyed from loss.

Licensed Professional Counselor, DBH, MBA, LPC, NCC
Grief and loss is an innately personal process where the patient's grief is centered around what the patient will no longer gain from the loss. In the case of the loss of a loved one, we work on helping the patient celebrate the life and hold on to the memories while letting themselves move forward with their own life.
Most of my work is with people who have difficulty in relationships, either feeling too emotionally isolated or too merged. My strength lies in helping people find a place where they can be in intimate relationships and not lose themselves. Loving is difficult - and feeling loved, is even harder.
Whenever someone experiences a major illness, chronic pain, or unexpected medical condition, multiple losses are inevitable. Similarly, if you're in a helper role as a caregiver, parent, or a professional, continual sacrifices can deplete your capacity to cope. I will provide guidance as you explore feelings related not only to death but also to the loss of identity, ambitions, and relationships. In the darkest of times, you don't have to be alone.
Grief can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to face it alone. Our dedicated counselors specialize in helping individuals navigate the complex emotions and challenges that come with loss. With a compassionate and supportive approach, they provide a safe space for you to express your grief, process your emotions, and find meaning amidst the pain. Drawing from evidence-based techniques and personalized care, they guide you on a transformative journey of healing, self-discovery, and resilience.
