I am a registered social worker who has focused primarily on grief, loss and trauma. My introduction to grief and loss began with the death of my father in early childhood. This experience shaped who I am and how I see the world. Growing up I did not understand that what I was experiencing was grief. The challenge for me was the secondary losses and disenfranchised grief that went along with the event of death. I have had many experiences with grief and loss that inform my work and it makes me appreciate the uniqueness of the individual experience.

My approach is always grounded in providing safe and compassionate care. My goal is to create a space where people can be unapologetic and free to express and explore their own unique experiences. I integrate several modalities based on the needs of clients such as; Person-Centered Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness, The Grief Recovery Method, Eye-Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and inner child work. I have supported those who are experiencing an anticipated loss, grief and loss, childhood trauma, birth trauma, infant loss, infertility, and caregivers in varying forms.

I am a mom of two wonderfully wild daughters who always keep me on my toes. When I am not wrangling my kids, I love to read and eat delicious food that I haven’t cooked.
