"Why can't I seem to shake this grief & loss like other people can?" you ask yourself. Chances are you have other unresolved losses that are being triggered. When you come to me, I will do an assessment, identify the unresolved losses and use Lifespan Integration or EMDR to help you get relief. On average my clients see me 10-12 sessions and are able to function again.

When you are experiencing loss and grief, it can be an invaluable benefit to have a person who can listen to you in ways that friends and relatives may not be able to listen. During times of profound grief and loss, you may be experiencing life situations in a different light, and you may have feelings that seem endless or even strange feelings that make you wonder if you are normal. Although you are probably feeling a lot of pain, a lot of personal growth can also happen when we are griveing. I hope that you will take the opportunity to get to know and understand yourself better as you heal, and I would be honored to work with you during this time.

If I can generalize, we Americans are not a culture given to feeling our grief and loss. Our "get over it and move on" attitude prevents us from facing the depth of sorrow that accompanies loss. Too often, the fail to grieve results in depression as we fight our sadness. We lack compassion for ourselves and label it as weakness. Effective therapy can help us to take ownership of all our feelings, even those we judge to be "weak". Understanding our right to be sad is an important component of healing and growth. Without expressions of sorrow and loss we may appear to be robotic or remote or even shallow. I help my clients to experience the fullness of their feelings and worth.

Although grief and loss are universal human experiences, there are many factors which can make it difficult to process. I offer a safe space to explore all that you are going through and feeling. Expressing all your complex feelings is healthy and can be so relieving. Repressed grief can make you physically or emotionally ill. Many losses are complicated with feelings of anger, guilt or the pain and confusion of unfinished business. Sometimes, when the loss is unexpected, shock can get in the way. Personal issues around ability or willingness to feel or show vulnerability can make it hard to grieve. I have many years of experience in offering safety and support to grieving clients.

The good news is that there is effective therapy for grief, loss, and bereavement in Oakland. Therapy begins with having a safe place to be able to talk about how you really feel, with someone who can accept your pain without judgement or fear and with whom you can be yourself. EMDR and somatic interventions are excellent for those times when grief, loss, and bereavement involve complicated grief, anxiety, depression, and trauma. CBT offers research based help for depression and irrational thoughts about grief, loss, and bereavement. I offer these therapies to people who are grieving in Oakland.

Sooner or later, we must all deal with loss. Sometimes it comes in small doses and sometimes it is overwhelming. Often, it is a silent and private struggle. In the midst of the struggle, we often fail to see that with every loss comes the potential for change, growth, new insights, understanding, refinement and a deeper relationship with ourselves, others and the Lord. Walking through loss contradicts everything most of us have learned. It is by embracing our pain that we find new life, new beginnings and true healing. My clients learn to be authentic to themselves in how they are feeling and not afraid to give into the process.

There is nothing more shattering than loss and grief. Whether its a family member, pet or friend, support is necessary. Grief and loss can also show up in dreams and goals. Our healthy attachments serve us, and can feel painful when they are no longer here in the form they once were. I can help in finding out how to ask for that, allowing yourself to receive it and integrate it to begin to heal.
