Grief and Loss

Grief and loss can feel like the ground’s been pulled out from under you. People describe it as sometimes feeling like a deep, heavy sadness; at other times it’s anger, guilt, confusion—or just feeling numb. Grieving doesn’t follow a straight line, and there’s no “right” way to grieve. Whether the loss is recent or something that’s lingered for years, it can affect your sleep, your energy, your relationships, and your sense of who you are.

​

Therapy gives you a steady, compassionate space to explore what your grief looks like and how it’s showing up in your life. It’s a place to speak your truth without having to hold back or put on a brave face. Together, we look at ways to process the pain, hold onto meaningful memories, and slowly begin to create space for hope and healing. This might involve storytelling, creative expression, or simple grounding practices to help you stay connected to the present.
