GRIEF COUNSELING / GRIEF THERAPY
Grief is a natural emotional response to loss. While it is a natural response, grief can become complicated and prolonged due to a variety of issues. I offer grief therapy services that promote healing and the integration and honoring of the loss to help my client move forward.

VETERAN ISSUES & DISABILITY EVALUATION
I respect our veterans for their sacrifice and service and offer therapy services that address veteran issues related to adjustment, trauma, anxiety and depression that can result from the stress of military service. My skills in this area were enhanced through my work as an intern and later a staff psychologist at VA Medical Centers in Nashville and Atlanta. I am currently contracted with an agency to conduct veteran disability exams to determine service-connected mental health conditions.

LONG TERM CARE CONSULTATION / HOSPICE
VETERAN ISSUES & DISABILITY EVALUATION
I provide supportive psychotherapy services to residents of Assisted Living Facilities as well as consultation to staff of longterm care facilities. Placement in a longterm care facility is a particularly stressful event for the resident and family. I work to support the resident with the grief, loss and adjustment of such a change as well as provide support to family members of the resident which can include caregiver stress/burnout.
