When a spouse or parent dies, the experience can change your world in expected and unexpected ways. You may experience difficult, conflicting emotions that others don't fully understand. If your relationship was complicated, your grief may be too. Whether your loss is recent or your grief has resurfaced after many years, you don't have to carry it alone.
I specialize in supporting adults grieving the loss of a spouse or parent. My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. Internal Family Systems (IFS) is the foundation of my work, integrated with other evidence-informed approaches to meet your individual needs.
Grief can affect every part of life—your identity, relationships, confidence, and sense of security. Therapy offers a compassionate space where you can better understand your experience of grief and feel heard, supported, and understood. I invite you to reach out for a free consultation.
