Losing a loved one is one of the most difficult experiences that anyone can go through. Grieving is a natural and necessary process that helps individuals process their emotions and come to terms with their loss. However, despite its universality, grief is often misunderstood and stigmatized in society. Similar things can be said for those that have experienced trauma or who are living with chronic pain. As I have experienced all three, I have a deep appreciation for the isolation that they bring and how difficult it can be to seek (and find) compassionate and understanding help.
My approach to therapy is a holistic one; we will look at you, the systems you were raised in and the systems in which you live, and the way your struggles are impacting your daily life. The goal is that together we will find tools to ease the burdens each day can bring and to empower you to utilize those tools both in and out of session.
The most important thing in understanding work with grief and trauma is that they are not a one-size-fits-all experience. Different individuals will have different needs and may require different forms of support. I am here to learn how to best support you and to be a listening ear. After all, you are the expert in your life and experiences!
