Top Employee Assistance Program Experts 2025

I am the founder and director of Grief Recovery Center, a Trusted Houston mental health practice since 2015, offering inclusive care in-person, online, and in Spanish. I focus on helping people work through grief and life transitions in a safe, compassionate environment. I started the practice in 2015 as a small solo practice while still working full-time at a psychiatric hospital, and over time it has grown into a group practice with a full administrative team and more than 20 therapists, all committed to providing quality care. My commitment to this work is deeply personal. After experiencing a painful, life-altering loss, I went through The Grief Recovery Institute®’s Grief Recovery Program® myself. That experience helped me heal and led me to specialize in grief recovery so I could support others who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or alone in their grief. At Grief Recovery Center, I am dedicated to creating a space where people can show up exactly as they are, without judgment, no matter the type of loss they are facing. This includes losses such as the death of a loved one, relationship or friendship changes, pet loss, pregnancy-related loss, loss of trust or faith, and many other forms of grief. In addition to grief and loss, our team also supports clients with a wide range of other clinical concerns. My goal is for every client to feel seen, heard, and supported, and to know they have a safe place to come for help.

Il counselor psicosociale è una figura che si muove su un terreno ibrido, tra il magma dell’esistenza quotidiana e le ferite sottili del respiro sociale. Venti anni di imprenditorialità e una ricerca artistica in costante metamorfosi hanno affilato la mia sensibilità verso le trame invisibili delle dinamiche umane. Attraverso un’indagine critica dell’irrazionale e delle conformità sociali, PSYKOSAPIENS si erge come baluardo della libertà di pensiero. Eccole le mappe: studi universitari e ricerca in territorio svizzero, intrecciati a un percorso accademico italiano, hanno dato vita a un principio in divenire — una forma esplorante, capace di guardare oltre i confini, smontare costrutti storici, manierismi, discorsività, contraddizioni. Dubitare e curiosare sono la mia bussola nel fluire continuo dell’esistenza — un supporto autentico per navigare il mondo liquido con consapevolezza, senza abbracciare false terre ferme.
