Life isn’t always what you expected it would be.
As a therapist specializing in grief therapy and counseling for life transitions, I provide compassionate support for adults navigating loss, change, and identity shifts. This includes grief related to death, divorce, caregiving, empty nesting, career changes, midlife transitions, and the anticipation of difficult transitions still to come.
You may not even realize that you’ve had expectations about the way life should unfold—until one day you look around and discover that what you imagined or hoped for is very different from the life you’re actually living. When this happens gradually, it’s common to feel disillusioned, anxious, depressed, or stuck.
Or maybe something came along and knocked you sideways. You lost a job, a marriage, a parent, or a sense of identity that once felt stable. Suddenly, you find yourself in unfamiliar territory, feeling disoriented and unsure of what comes next.
In either case, what you may be experiencing is grief.
Grief is not only something we experience after a death. Grief can arise anytime we lose something meaningful—whether that’s a relationship, a role, a future you imagined, or the life that once felt familiar. Major life transitions and unexpected loss can surface painful feelings of uncertainty, helplessness, and loss of control, often impacting something as fundamental as your sense of self.
I believe you already carry an internal wisdom—an inner roadmap that can help guide you through grief and change. In therapy, we work together to slow down, listen carefully, and follow that roadmap wherever it may lead.
