A Steady Presence for Trauma, Grief, and Life’s Crossroads
Navigating life’s most profound transitions—the weight of trauma, the complexity of grief, or the sudden upheaval of a medical crisis—requires more than just clinical strategies; it requires a partner who understands the terrain. As a veteran with extensive experience supporting first responders and families in medical crisis, I offer a lived understanding of high-stress environments and the deep human need for purpose and resilience. My goal is to be a compassionate, non-judgmental guide for those who feel they are at a crossroads, helping you navigate the journey forward with a shared focus on healing.
