Grief

I am specialized in walking with you through miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant loss. I have trainings though Postpartum Support International and EMDRIA, but I also have the firsthand knowledge of my own miscarriage and stillbirth. I personally don't believe that grief gets less over time, but that we instead become better able to carry our loved ones with us into the future. 

​

There is another facet of grief that comes with trying to conceive long-term and infertility. I am here to help you process the change of the future you imagined and the mental exhaustion of tracking cycles, fertility treatments, and month-after-month of disappointment.

​

In therapy I utilize Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to process your loss and help you develop skills to manage the symptoms connected to grief. I will assist you with finding ways to memorialize your baby and understand typical milestones associated with grief.

​

I also have a passion in walking with women through Pregnancy After Loss (PAL), understanding the complexity of hope mixed with grief. Many women experience an increase in mood and anxiety disorders during this time period, needing extra support and understanding. My biggest goals are for you to know that hope does not jinx a pregnancy and you are not alone.
