Grief and Loss

You might think you are going crazy, but you are not. You have suffered a loss and you are grieving. Crying at the drop of a hat, constantly forgetting things, feelings of anxiety, and even anger can be everyday occurrences. Laughter and happy people seem out of place in your world. This is what grief looks like.

Whether you’re caregiving, dealing with the loss or illness of a loved one, your own end of life issues, or the loss of a beloved pet, I can walk the grief journey with you and help you explore pathways to move forward.

Grief and Loss

Brainspotting

Grief often manifests itself physically and emotionally. The integration of Brainspotting and Mindfulness recognizes the mind-body connection inherent in the grieving process.

Brainspotting can help people process grief and other emotional issues by identifying and focusing on specific eye positions.

It can help people access and process deep seated emotions. It can help people reduce the impact of unresolved trauma and negative beliefs.

Brainspotting

Integrative Body Psychotherapy

Feeling "out of sorts" and not knowing why. Having a hard time with the "blues" and it takes days sometimes weeks to feel better.

I help clients experience their potential by heightening aliveness, authenticity and through mental-health skills to sustain well-being, therefore connecting between body, mind and spirit.

Using IBP tools helps people sustain mind, body, spirit integration so that individuals, families and communities can experience peace and joy.

Pet Loss Therapy & Support Groups

Feeling sad and lonely, or having an intense longing for your pet. You might feel shock or disbelief about your loss. Physical symptoms such as loss of appetite or difficulty sleeping and anxiety and depression may manifest after the loss of your pet.

Therapy can help you navigate your grief and find a sense of peace. Therapy can help you understand difficult decisions you made, like euthanasia, and work through feelings of guilt.

Many people look toward others rather than within themselves for their excitement & well-being

Couples find their familiar struggles creeping back into their current relationship. We each bring to the relationship a set of unconscious psychological patterns that alter our perspective and influence our behavior.

These personal patterns have an ongoing effect on the state of our intimacy, sexuality and the relationship itself.

We can heal these emotional injuries and replace these old patterns of reactivity and negative behavior with positive experiences of well-being and wholeness.
