As humans, we experience change. At times change is welcomed and at other times change can cause distress. As a relational therapist with advanced trainings in Gottman techniques, I work with couples in facilitating change which can have the potential to promote secure attachment and trusting relationship. Individual therapy looks a bit different, though we are still impacted by the relationships we experience in the cycle of life. From birth, relationships shape who we become, how we behave, and in how we see and experience the world. Therapy allows for the exploration of these lived-experiences and impact on us as individuals.

Finding a therapist can be an overwhelming process. Providing a safe and trusting environment is fundamental to my counseling approach. I specialize in work with trauma, substance abuse, addiction, chronic relapse, those that suffer from emotional issues in conjunction with addiction, and children. In my experience, when emotional issues are treated concurrently with addiction, you will have the greatest success in reducing issues related to both simultaneously. As such, I am dually licensed to treat issues related to both mental health and addiction.

Grief Therapists

How long does therapy take for grief?

There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.

When should you seek therapy for grief?

Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.

Can grief be managed without therapy?

Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.

What happens if grief is left untreated?

Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
