Licensed to practice in California and accepts 35 insurances. Specializes in Grief, Older Adults, Physical Health Condition
My life’s work is focused on honoring life transitions for individuals and families. I can help people achieve their physical, mental and behavioral health goals. My approach to therapy consists of a willingness to travel into the pain as well as the healing and joy. Healing requires gentleness, loving care, and time. Healing and growth can happen with expression and the sacred witnessing therapy provides.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then assess the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. It is important for you to feel comfortable and safe I with who you choose as your clinician.
My approach draws on my clinical training in psychology, years of hospice work, and my personal experience with loss. Grieving takes patience, endurance and compassion for yourself. Therapy can provide the sacred space to share our grief. It is my deepest privilege to support someone through their grief experience.
I specialize in grief counseling. The journey through grief can be heartbreaking. The relentless emotional stress, the colossal life change, the family disruption and the loneliness touch every aspect of a person's life. Seeking therapy can provide sacred space to share the complicated emotions of grief. My approach draws on my clinical training as well as years working for hospice. I have facilitated many grief groups as well as individual support.
