Loss is a hard reality of life. Grief isn’t something to “get over", it’s something your body and mind learn to live alongside. My approach helps you stay connected to what was lost while reclaiming vitality in the present. I work gently with the nervous system to metabolize pain rather than suppress it, allowing grief to transform from something that crushes you into something that deepens you. I've lost loved ones close to me and know firsthand how isolating and painful it is. Maybe you have felt like no one understands or wants to listen. I offer a compassionate, safe space for you to process loss and grief on your own terms.

Grief is a powerful and unique process. There are numerous examples of how grief and loss can show up in your life, but often grief is in response to a deep and profound loss that you have experienced. This can show up as losing your loved one; your spouse, your close friend, your colleague, your beloved pet, or it can be the loss of your job, your marriage, your relationship, your home, or some other aspect of your identity. Love, patience, and compassion are vital to your grief process. Being able to navigate your grief process on your own can be overwhelming and that is when it is helpful to have someone to work with to support you and help you heal by being a witness to your process.

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.
