Loss is inevitable and timeless - grief is not. A large portion of his journey was working with Zen Hospice, and helping individuals and families deal with loss and transform their grief into something else. It is a journey best not walked alone, and the practice is walking through the middle, and learning that it will pass.
I specialize in helping clients move through the painful territory of grief in order to rebuild their lives, cultivate a renewed sense of self, and create meaning after what is often devastating loss.
Grief changes us. Grieving a loss, whether it is fresh or long-standing is something I hold a great deal of reverence around. I can help you navigate the terrain and integrate how the process teaches us new aspects of self, others, and the world. As a trained Ceremonial Healing Practitioner in the Song of Sophia lineage, I can also guide you through the shadowy portals grief can sometimes open up for us.
Life is full of loss. Maybe someone close to you has a died or a significant relationship recently ended. Some loss is expected, and at other times completely out of the what might be anticipated. There is no right way to grieve; I will help support you in your natural process. Integrating ritual and body-centered therapy, I will help you move through the waves of grief to honor your loved one and build resilience. I specialize in working with complicated grief and moral injury.
While I work with adults and couples, I specialize in treating children and teenagers. I treat children and teenagers who are dealing with depression, who are suicidal, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, cutting, bipolar to name a few issues. I also work with high conflict divorces.
Therapy can provide that space to discuss your process and how loss has impacted you. As your therapist, I will hold space with you and honor your experiences however they arrive.
I believe everyone has the potential to meet and overcome life's obstacles. I am direct and empathetic, providing a safe and compasssionate place to work with you through life's challenges and to regain stability in your life. Call or email today to begin making your life more manageable.
