Accepting Clients

I become so engrossed in human stories, and especially the deep, sad stories of loss; because they always showed me the intensity of love.

About My Clients

My hope is, you can find healing - and better find yourself - if you value a casual & warm sort of therapist, a space where you can bring all your humanity, and none of it is wrong, a place to make sense or meaning of it all. Where laughing, crying, and feeling-deeply about the loss, joy, and absurdity of life is safe, is just human. If you value being real & someone being real with you, where both of us can offer sincerity, you & I may be able to find some meaning & healing together.

My Background and Approach

I offer disarming realness, an open, warm, and easygoing style. My hope is that you find someone that is present with you, sees you in how you are showing yourself, making space for you to safely see more & more of yourself. I invite folks to become more aware of their inner-world. I have trained with the Existential-Humanistic Institute & ongoing training with the Gestalt Institute of Cleveland. While I am primarily present for that shared human experience & journey, in however it arises, I have spent an abundance of deep time in the death & loss of humans, and the loss of animals, as well having spent a lot of my years practicing with folks of the senior community.
