Certified Grief Educator & Clinical Mental Health Counselor - Nationwide
*Online Only* With a robust background in counseling, education, and emotional support, I am eager to bring my expertise and compassionate approach to your unique family, supporting you as you navigate the profound loss of a beloved pet. Throughout my career, I have cultivated a deep understanding of grief and emotional resilience, working in roles that required empathy, active listening, and tailored support. As a Clinical Counselor I have developed and implemented individualized treatment plans, facilitated group therapy sessions, and provided crisis intervention, all within a virtual setting. My experience counseling individuals in distress, including my work with the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, has honed my ability to create safe, supportive spaces for those experiencing emotional pain. In addition to my clinical experience, I bring a strong foundation in education and program development. As an Assistant Professor, I designed and implemented curricula, facilitated group learning, and provided one-on-one mentorship. These roles required exceptional communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to foster trust and connection—qualities I bring to facilitating support, hosting live sessions, and leading curricula for grieving families. What sets me apart is my ability to combine clinical expertise with a warm, approachable demeanor. I am confident in my ability to support and promote healing from the profound loss of your beloved pet by providing compassionate, professional guidance to families during their most challenging moments.
