My Approach to Helping
Have you lost your footing? Someone you love? I specialize in grief and loss counseling, including bereavement, divorce, pregnancy, childhood losses, and the effects of neglect. Losses of any kind can leave you feeling groundless and uncertain. Unattended losses are often the seeds for depression, anxiety, and unwanted behaviors. They can leave you feeling separated from the world and disconnected from the people you love. I would like to guide you through the process of grieving and healing, towards a life full of joy and purpose.

 

More Info About My Practice
