Who I Work With

Attachment doesn't end when you two do.

The bond doesn't dissolve just because the relationship did — whether it's a marriage, the tie with an adult child, the person you co-parent with, or a pet who was family. I work with the attachment that outlasts the ending, using Emotionally Focused and Focusing-Oriented methods.

Pet Loss

Losing a pet is a real loss — the grief of a daily, unconditional bond, made lonelier by a world that calls it "just a pet." Including the guilt no one prepares you for.

Breakup Grief

A breakup is grief, not just disappointment — the loss of an attachment, even when leaving was the right call. On why you still reach for them, and how to let yourself feel it.

Life after a divorce

Separation and divorce dissolve a marriage — but not the attachment it was built on. The grief, the protest, the ache at odd hours is the part no one prepares you for, and the part I work with.

Co-parenting

You're no longer partners — but you're still your child's coordinated team, across two households. The custody agreement sets the schedule; this is about building the working relationship it can't create.

Repair with an adult child

The parent–child bond doesn't expire when a child grows up — and even a strained or distant relationship can be repaired. Whether the rupture was loud or the closeness just quietly faded, the bond is still reachable.

What this work is not

This is clinical therapy, not a legal or forensic service. I don’t conduct custody evaluations, serve as an expert witness, or write letters intended for use in a custody proceeding. If your situation calls for that, I’ll say so early and help you find the right kind of professional.

Not sure which of these fits?

Reach out for a complimentary 15-minute phone or Zoom consultation. We’ll figure out together where the work should start — individually, with your child, or between co-parents — and if I’m not the right fit, I’ll do my best to point you in the right direction.
