My Expertise

• Grief & Bereavement: due to progressive illness, and sudden & traumatic loss

• Coping with Serious Illness: whether debriefing a recent medical event or coping with a life limiting illness

• Relationship Therapy: processing hurt and strengthening bonds with couples, family, coworkers, or friends

• Healthcare Workers and Therapists: burnout and secondary trauma of doctors, nurses, social workers, and beyond

My Framework

I believe that self awareness & connection can heal. My practice is a place where we can build safety and vulnerability. We will work together to help you better understand yourself & your patterns to navigate these transitions.

Therapy is not always easy, but I can help you can experience a deeper connection to yourself: more free from the expectations, fears, or ideas that have been keeping you stuck. More embodied, more thoughtful, more present.

I strive to foster safety & joy, yet challenge you. I also understand that we do not exist in a vacuum, & healing ourselves & coping with the challenges in our lives requires acknowledging & working against the systems of oppression that contribute to them.
