Grief is an emotion often reserved for the passing of someone meaningful to us, but it’s also a normal emotion in life transitions, like job loss, a ruptured relationship, a move, an accident, the death of a pet, illness, trauma or an empty nest.

These experiences may leave you grieving the loss of an idea, an expectation of what your life looked like or where it was going.

Loss has a way of isolating a person from others. You may feel pressure to be doing better than you are, or to be further along an arbitrary timeline. Well-intentioned comments that don’t meet you where you are can leave you feeling even more alone.

A common misconception is thinking that to move forward we just have to jump back into normal life. But the fear of getting stuck in grief can stop us from sitting with it. Allowing keeps us open to the resources we need to learn to cope with and manage our pain. It can feel messy at times, but when we learn to be ok with temporary discomfort, the pressure to be at a certain point in our journey will lessen.

With kindness and understanding paramount, I support clients struggling with emotions that accompany change and loss, managing anxiety and processing trauma. I have extensive experience working with clients who are rebuilding after personal and/or professional burnout. I 'm a Certified EMDR Therapist and I incorporate easy and gentle mindfulness techniques that support clients as they process, turn down the volume on and integrate upsetting and traumatic experiences. I believe each client should move through difficult emotions at their own pace. Together, we'll create a space for your exploration and healing.
