Life Transitions

Moving, changing careers, divorce, new relationships, new chapters, etc. for many change is a precarious and difficult time to navigate.  

The holding, stabilizing presence of therapy can help you through a time of change so that you maintain a sense of continuity and stability. 

Grief

Grief is a normal experience that can be incredibly painful and isolating to move through.  

​

Sometimes in grief we loose our support systems and find ourselves unable to process the loss we have experienced.  

​

Sometimes grief stays with us long after the loss has occurred and dramatically impacts our ability to engage in the world around us.
