A Space for Understanding, Faith, and Grace
Grief can change the way we see ourselves, our relationships, our faith, and the world around us. Yet, in the midst of loss, it can be difficult to understand what we are experiencing or know where to begin.
Graced for the JOURNEY: A 6-Week Cohort was created to offer a space for understanding, reflection, and support as individuals navigate the experience of grief. Rooted in psychological insight and biblical wisdom, this work recognizes that grief is not something we simply need to get over. It is an experience that deserves honesty, compassion, and care.
Our Approach
We believe that grief deserves to be approached with compassion rather than judgment, understanding rather than assumptions, and patience rather than pressure.
Our approach brings psychological insight and biblical wisdom together while honoring the complexity of grief. We recognize that each person's experience is different and that there is no single timeline for healing.
Whether through educational reflection or individual psychotherapy, the aim is to create opportunities for greater understanding, meaningful growth, and support that honors the person and their experience.

Meet the Founder
I created Graced for the JOURNEY out of a desire to bring together psychological understanding and biblical wisdom in a meaningful and accessible way. My goal is to help individuals make sense of their experiences, recognize the many ways grief can affect their lives, and explore how faith can accompany them through seasons of loss.
As a guide in this work, I seek to create space for learning, reflection, and honest conversation—not to offer all the answers, but to help individuals approach their experiences with greater understanding and compassion.

Through guided reflection and meaningful learning, participants are invited to explore their experiences with greater understanding and compassion.
Graced for the JOURNEY Cohort
Life can bring seasons of grief, anxiety, depression, and transitions that leave us feeling overwhelmed or uncertain about what comes next. Individual psychotherapy offers a space to explore these experiences, develop greater self-understanding, and work toward meaningful change.
Grief remains an important focus of this practice, while individual support is also available for anxiety, depression, life transitions, concerns and faith-based exploration. When desired, faith can be thoughtfully integrated into the therapeutic process in a way that respects each client's needs and goals.
Virtual psychotherapy services are available to Maryland residents, with limited availability.
