I help adults and couples impacted by grief and trauma who feel they are spiraling in patterns that lead to nowhere yet are not sure how to change or what direction to take, but just not this. My work helps them clarify meaning, heal relationally with themselves and others, and realign with what matters most while gaining traction. In particular, I have a special spot in my heart first responder populations and those in the caring professions (pastors, counselors, social workers, medical fields), though I extend my work to anyone who is seeking change but not sure what to do.

My clients often feel emotionally stuck, lost, and just surviving with the weight of past baggage and current stress. Due to the rat race of life, major setbacks, betrayals, and disappointments they’ve lost touch with their core self and sense of purpose, and often feel fearful or disillusioned about others and life.

My approach combines evidence-based therapies with spiritual and existential meaning-making to help you uncover who you are, heal, and live life anew.  You change and improve in understanding your “why” and develop and put into practice your “how” of healing and growth. You get healed and restored and this restoration supports not only feeling good but also purposeful and successful living in reality.

The ideal is to experience a profound shift toward peace, joy, meaning and clarity, enjoy more ease and fulfillment in relationships, feel confident in your next steps, and gain greater sense of place, purpose, and belonging in daily living with a more adaptive vision for the future.
