Grief and Loss Counseling in New Shoreham, RI.

Grief and loss can affect every aspect of your life, leaving you feeling overwhelmed, isolated, or uncertain about how to move forward. Whether you are grieving the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, the loss of health, employment, or another significant life change, I provide a compassionate and supportive space where you can process your emotions at your own pace. My approach combines evidence-based counseling with empathy, practical coping strategies, and, when desired, the hope and comfort found in Christian faith. Together, we will honor your loss, build resilience, develop healthy ways to cope, and help you move toward healing while preserving the meaningful memories and relationships that continue to shape your life.

As a psychologist, I can give people the tools to deal with grief and loss, as well as to discuss the topic in ways geared toward working through the loss. Grief and loss are both issues that present themselves during the time of loss, but sometimes unresolved grief leads to changes in a person's life years or even decades later. I especially encourage people dealing with the latter to call me. Working through a distant loss can be extremely powerful. And understanding how it still affects you can feel good, as well as to open doors that were previously closed in life.

I remember many years ago learning in graduate school about a technique for rapidly helping people to deal with the pain of loss while retaining the memory of their loved one. To this day I remember the specifics of how to help people w/this therapeutic approach. I also utilize individual and family therapy models to help grieving people. Please do not hesitate to contact me for therapy or a referral.
