Grief is love with nowhere to go.

Let’s give it space

Navigating Grief and Loss

“Grief is the Price We Pay for Love.”
Grief is often imagined as something we experience after the death of a loved one, and while that is a deep and significant form of grief, it is not the only one. Grief can also show up in quieter, less-recognized ways like the end of a friendship, a relationship that fades without closure, or the loss of the future we thought we would have. Whether it is the sharp ache of loss or the confusing emptiness of something unfinished, grief impacts every part of our lives.

You Don’t Have to Navigate Grief Alone

Grief affects your emotions, thoughts, and even your physical well-being. It can impact relationships, work, and daily routines. Therapy provides a safe, supportive space to process your loss, explore your feelings, and find ways to cope while honoring your unique journey.

Grief counseling may be right for you if you:

  • Feel stuck or overwhelmed by sadness or loss

  • Struggle with anger, guilt, or unanswered questions

  • Want support processing major life changes or endings

  • Experience anxiety or stress related to grief

  • Are looking for tools to help you move forward without forgetting what was lost

Sometimes Grief Isn’t Straightforward

Traditional Grief:
When someone we love dies, the world changes in ways we often cannot prepare for. Daily routines feel disrupted, emotions swing between numbness and intensity, and sometimes even small tasks feel overwhelming. Grief can bring waves of sadness, anger, regret, and even guilt. You may feel like you should “be further along” or that others don’t understand the weight of your loss. Therapy provides a place to honor your loved one, to process what you are feeling, and to move toward healing at your own pace.

Ambiguous Grief:
Other times, grief is less visible but equally real. This is the grief of unanswered questions and uncertain endings — when a friend cuts off contact, when a loved one is physically present but emotionally distant, or when life takes a turn you never expected. Because there is no ritual, closure, or clear moment of loss, ambiguous grief can feel disorienting and isolating. Therapy offers a space to name these feelings, to make sense of what has been left unsaid, and to find new ways of holding hope and moving forward.

Supporting Your Healing Journey

My goal is to help you navigate grief with compassion, understanding, and practical support. Therapy is not about “moving on” too quickly or minimizing your experience, it’s about helping you integrate loss into your life, regain balance, and rebuild hope.

In sessions, we focus on:

  • Emotional processing: Explore your feelings safely and without judgment

  • Coping strategies: Develop tools to manage grief’s impact on daily life

  • Relationship support: Learn how to communicate your needs with loved ones

  • Personal growth: Find meaning, resilience, and hope while honoring your journey

Whether your grief is recent or long-standing, grief counseling provides guidance, support, and practical strategies to help you navigate loss, restore connection, and move toward a life that feels whole again.

Why Therapy Helps

Whether your grief is tied to death, divorce, distance, or disconnection, therapy gives you a safe place to process your pain without judgment. Together, we can:

  • Give language to your loss (even when others minimize it)

  • Explore ways to honor the relationship or dream that has changed

  • Learn to hold grief without letting it define your every day

  • Rebuild hope and connection as you move forward

No matter what form grief takes, you don’t have to go through it alone. Together, we can create space for your pain, your questions, and your memories, while gently helping you rebuild a life that feels meaningful again.
