For Individuals

Grief is complex. Your therapy should reflect that.
I provide individual therapy for adults navigating grief, loss, and the emotional challenges that come with it. Whether you're grieving a recent death, carrying the weight of past losses, or facing anticipatory or ambiguous grief, therapy offers a space to be seen, heard, and supported—without pressure to “move on.”

What to Expect

In our work together, we’ll explore your grief at your own pace. Sessions may include:

  • Space to share and process your story

  • Education about different types and models of grief

  • Identifying secondary losses and how they impact your identity and daily life

  • Tools for emotional regulation, grounding, and coping

  • Meaning-making and integration of your loss into your ongoing life

  • Exploring continuing bonds with the person you’ve lost

Therapeutic Approach

I take a person-centered, relational, and trauma-informed approach. I draw from:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – exploring how thoughts influence emotions

  • Compassion-Focused Therapy – supporting self-kindness and emotional resilience

  • Existential Therapy – exploring purpose, identity, and meaning

  • Culturally Sensitive & Inclusive Practices – honoring your values, identity, and story

I specialize in grief and bereavement, but I also support clients dealing with anxiety, life transitions, caregiving stress, and identity shifts related to loss.

For Professionals

Let’s change how we talk about grief—together.
I offer grief-informed training and consultation for professionals and organizations in healthcare, hospice, education, nonprofits, and community services. With over a decade of experience in hospice and palliative care, I help teams feel more confident, supported, and equipped to respond to grief with compassion and skill.

Training Topics Include

  • Fundamentals of Grief Counseling
    Understand the core principles of grief work, including the non-linear nature of grief, the importance of validation, and how to support clients through meaning-making without pathologizing their experience.

  • Coping with Grief During the Holidays
    Learn how to support clients and patients who struggle with intensified grief during holidays, anniversaries, and seasonal transitions. Includes tools and compassionate language for navigating these tender times.
