I have been doing grief counseling for many years. I will show you how to allow the waves of grief to wash over you and go out to sea. You will learn to be patient with your process even as others may be becoming impatient with you. You will learn self-compassion.
No one teaches us how to grieve or process loss. Yet it is a requirement of life. We have struggled with loss for a long time as humans and we will likely continue to feel the pain of loss. Learning how to best help you thought it is frequently the goal of therapy for loss or grief.
I specialize in trauma, and loss and grief often go hand-in-hand with this. I work with clients to help form healthy beliefs about the self following loss and respect the feelings of grief while allowing for healing and growth moving forward when a client is ready.

There are many forms of grief and everyone has experienced grief in life in some form. Grief can come to us like waves of emotions, thoughts, memories. Sometimes these waves can feel truly overwhelming and other difficult emotions can accompany the grief experience. But, there is help. I was a full-time hospice grief counselor for over a decade and also bring this expertise into each counseling experience. Grief counseling requires certain abilities and knowledge, and not everyone is qualified to be a grief counselor.
Everyone experiences grief in their own unique way. I provide a safe environment where you can process and discuss your experiences with grief. I help normalize what you're going through so that there can be more self-acceptance and understanding. Grief is not just death, but a loss in many areas of our lives. Since the pandemic, we are all experiencing grief in one way or another. We need a place where we can be heard and a place where we can express all of our feelings.
Grief and loss are an unavoidable part of life. Realizing what is part of natural grief and what is abnormal is helpful in knowing when listening and empathy are enough and when extra help is needed.
