Losing friends, partners, or disassociated from family members is an underexplored form of grief. While someone has not passed away, Audrey believes in processing the loss of what could have been and will never be in the same way as grief. Together we will identify the source of your recent loss, the long term consequences of it and I will hold space for the moments when you need to pause and make peace with the changes in your life. A healthy dose a challenging what loss is teaching you into your new phase of life will be couples with understanding and empathy.

Any time we, or people close to us change, there is a loss; a loss of the familiar, perhaps a loss of what was known and comfortable. When you experience disappointment and need to change your expectations, there is a grief and loss process as well. Changing expectations is hard. The upside, though, is that doing so usually brings more contentment and peace, both for yourself and with others. I work to help people learn about their losses and find and define new expectations for their reality that will bring more joy to their lives.

Some budgeting needed

While counseling can certainly be an expense for individuals and families in Jamaica, with proper budgeting, it is entirely do-able and the risk/reward is worth it. For some families, it may be difficult to sustain a commitment to therapy without proper insurance coverage. If this is you, ask your therapist about low cost options as practitoners in and around Jamaica may have flexibility or sliding scales. Low cost counseling and affordable therapy are also sometimes offered by listed city and university level clinics, check with your local Jamaica public health department.
