Dr. Pam Heilman
Psychologist, Psy.D., LCP
There is no one right way to grieve a loss. We often associate grief with losing a loved one but it can occur with other significant life changes such as the end of a relationship, loss of a pet, job loss, changes in your family dynamic, or other significant life changes. I have worked with many clients experiencing grief and they often share with me that they feel alone and misunderstood by others. As human beings, we often struggle to know how to respond to someone who is grieving. As a result, people who are grieving may feel isolated or try to put on a brave face so that they do not feel like a burden to others. In therapy, you can come exactly as you are and you don't have to put on a brave face. In our work together, you will have the space to process your thoughts and feelings associated with your grief. An important goal is to help you find ways to honor the loss while still allowing room for new experiences and meaningful connections in your life.

Grief and loss look different on everyone. Grief can happen when someone dies but it can also happen after a breakup, separation, friendship loss, job change/loss, injury, illness, a move, etc. The intensity and presentation of grief symptoms are different for everyone. Our culture and traditions can also inform our grief. Let's talk about it together.

Natalie A Shafer

Grief is not linear, nor is it limited to death or loss. Any uninvited change can bring feelings of mourning and sadness. I offer a supportive space to help you process your experience and find ways to adapt and cope.
