Live your best life.
Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, specializing in Grief & Loss, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Psychology, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT). I provide psychological services that are tailored for your needs. The purpose of my therapeutic practice is to help you become free from anxiety, shame, depression, addiction and hurtful relationships and choices. I believe in working together to empower you to live your best life. I am available for an introductory phone consultation, at no charge, to respond to any specific questions you may have about therapy in general, and the methods I use to help you reach your goals.
I also offer specialized services for people who are coping after a loss. Grief is frequently associated with the death of a loved one, but it can also occur after a divorce or break up, changing family dynamics, the loss of a job, having to move, or more. Grief is often thought of as an emotional experience, but it can also affect you physically, spiritually and behaviorally. In addition to feeling sad, grief may also cause you to have feelings of anger, guilt, loneliness and confusion, and your feelings may cycle wildly. Many people report feeling “out of control.” Everybody grieves in their own way, and there is no timetable for the grief process. As a grief counselor, I provide a safe and comforting space for you to express your feelings in a healthy way. I provide grief education so that you may gain greater understanding of your own experiences, as well as the reactions of others. I can provide techniques for helping you cope as you heal. Often people will tell a grieving person to “get over it.” I am here to help you get through it, and to assist you in reaching a more positive place without diminishing the impact this event has had on you.
