grief is a natural, expected response to loss. you don’t have to bear it alone.

Grief isn’t just a feeling; it’s a process that affects all parts of you – your brain, your body, your relationships, your worldview, and your way of moving through your life. No matter how grief shows up for you, and no matter what you’re grieving,
you are welcome here.

Though the pain of grief can feel intolerable, our goal in grief therapy is not to “get rid of” or “get over” grief. Together we witness the grief - we walk alongside it -
in order to make the pain more tolerable.

my grief training

In addition to experiencing a significant death loss, I have dedicated much of my continuing education to learning how to support grievers. I have participated in several grief trainings, including:

  • What's Your Grief: Understanding the Grief of Traumatic Loss

  • Grief Therapy in Action: An Experiential Course for Working with Death, Relationship Loss, and the Complexities of Grieving

  • The 2026 PESI Grief Summit

  • What's Your Grief: Intensive in Grief-Informed Practice: Essential Theory And Interventions For Working With Grief

  • Working with Grief and Trauma: Clinical Distinctions and Practical Experiential Interventions (AEDP Institute)
