Grief is not linear. After loss, the sadness comes unexpectedly. It waxes and wanes on its own. The only way to be with it is to let it move through you. If you try to bottle it up, it will come out later. It can also build in your system lead to other emotional difficulties. Grief is a natural process and it's important to let it happen. I'm here to support you in being with the grief in a compassionate, kind way.

Grief is incredibly complex and multifaceted. Most people think grief is just sadness, but there is so many more layers and seasons to grief. Sometimes it is sadness, sometimes it is anger, sometimes it is peace, sometimes it is bargaining. And the way that grief manifests can be based on personality, the type of loss, etc. To understand more about your specific, individual grief, come see me!

The death of a loved one is possibly the single most difficult experience that anyone can face. Seeking out counseling is a good way to handle the grief and loss that come after experiencing loss. Your counselor can help you explore the intense feelings of sadness and loss. Many people are expected to continue their normal daily activities after a loss, such as going to work and taking care of family. Therefore, they are unable to fully experience and explore their grief. Yet research has shown that the more deeply you can feel and understand your pain the better prepared you will be to move beyond your grief and re-enter normal life. Call today: (970) 227-2770.

Sitting alone in grief can be the hardest thing to do. As I sit with you and allow some of what needs to be released to be released, my hope is that you feel a sense of safety and healing.
