ABOUT ME
|
I specialize in and am passionate about working with people experiencing grief and loss and trauma, and have a particular passion for working with new moms in their postpartum period, pregnant women, and women experiencing fertility issues including miscarriage and baby/child loss. I also support women who have experienced abortions.
I believe that the foundation of any healing work is a strong and trusting relationship and the ability to feel safe in the vulnerability of the work. This journey is a collaborative one and we will work together to choose the best methods and approaches for you. I know starting this journey can be challenging, so please feel free to reach out with any questions via phone or email, whichever is easiest for you. I'm happy to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation so that we can chat and sort out logistics. I'll do my best to respond within 1-2 business days. |

OUTSIDE THE OFFICEOutside of work you can find me taking walks with my pup, Zia, doing yoga in various rooms of the house (usually with my kid hanging off of me), and drinking lots of coffee.
In the summer I'm at the beach, and in the winter I am snowboarding. I enjoy reading lengthy fantasy novels, listening to murder mystery podcasts, and spending time with my family. |
