Grief and Loss, Women’s Empowerment & Life Transitions Counseling and Therapy
Has your priority been on taking care of others? Are you thinking that the time has come to shine the light on yourself, and focus on YOUR wants and needs?
Have you experienced a change in your life which is bringing about a re-evaluation of your priorities, and a desire for more joy and meaning in your life?
Do you feel lost and confused due to a recent death or other type of loss?
At times, you might not know where to turn or what to do to make things better for yourself. If you need some support, I’d like to help.
These are the areas in which I can help and support you:
• WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT
Have you lost sight of who you are, what you want and what’s important to you? Women are rewarded by society and their upbringing for caretaking others.
Do you feel like…
• You have lost your voice?
• You have lost sight of who you are?
• You have lost sight of what’s important to you?
• You have lost sight of what you’ve wanted?
Counseling can help you feel empowered and find your voice!
Some examples of finding your voice can include:
Setting Boundaries
Creating More Self-Acceptance and Self-Compassion
Paying Attention to Your Thoughts and Feelings
Increasing Self-Care
Reducing Stress
Connecting Back to Your Wants and Needs (Your Authentic Self)

• LIFE TRANSITIONS & LIFE DIRECTION
You can’t go back to what was, and you don’t know what’s coming next. This period of time has been described as a liminal time. This in between time offers a chance to re-evaluate your priorities.
Your priorities can include your…
- Family, Friend and Work Relationships
- Health
- Spirituality
- Career
- Happiness and Peace
This re-evaluation of your priorities can lead to some of our important work in therapy.
Re-evaluating your priorities helps you:
Find More Meaning
Look At Your Identity and Relationships
Create Enhanced Self-Care
Therapy offers you a place and time to slow down, so that you can figure out…
- What is needed
- What really matters
- What is next for you in your life
Some examples of life transitions include:
Divorce
Empty Nest
Job Changes
Retirement
Age Milestones
Dealing with an Illness
Graduating College
Moving
Marriage or New Relationship
Birth of a Child
Aging Parents
• GRIEF COUNSELING
Have the ways people responded to your grief caused you to shut down and not share your feelings? Grief needs to be witnessed by another. You may not feel that you’ve gotten the support you need and deserve from others. Many people are uncomfortable around the subject of grief even when they care about you.
Therapy offers you a safe and validating space where you can share what this loss means to you, or discover what it means to you.
Your grief and loss may include:
Death of Someone in Your Life
A Long-Ago Loss
Illness of a Loved One
Pandemic Related Grief
Loss of a Soul Pet
