Virtual 1 Hour Support Group for Women who are grieving a loss in their life and are looking for community and support.
I also specialize in supporting people through grief and loss.
Therapy is a journey and commitment to bettering yourself and it speaks volumes to your readiness for change that you are searching for a therapist. Clients I see most often are looking to seek relief from what often feels like the never ending spiral of anxious thoughts. They want relief from the physical symptoms that come along with anxiety, and they want to know how to worry less about the issues in their life that are consuming them. Often working on boundaries, anxiety management techniques, and processing difficult times in their lives or relationships can be the key to relief from many of these issues.

As a Credentialed Grief Educator and Counselor, Certified Pet Loss and Bereavement therapist and Ordained Pastor, I try to provide guidance to those going through the pain and sorrow of loss.
By understanding the profound, spiritual, heart-based connections people make, I'm able to create a working rapport with those I companion. The grief support groups I guide also give critical help to the bereft. Each person's grief, as they mourn the loss of whatever they loved, is unique. Special attention to seniors and kids who feel loss very deeply.
Groups help us find support from others experiencing similar situations. Upon joining, most people feel a sense of belonging and supported by other group members. A brief interview is required before admission to groups. Groups meet for 60 to 75 minutes, twice monthly, once in person and once online. Groups begin when there is sufficient number of members, determined by me. Most groups are 8 sessions in length. We are establishing groups for: 1)Spouses of gay/bi men, 2) Grief, 3) Men’s issues, 4) Parents of LGBTQ kids, 5) Sex/Porn Addiction, 6) Coming Out, 7) Sexual Abuse
In addition to Individual counseling , the following are some GROUPS that might be available: 1) Straight with Bi or GAY partner, 2) GRIEF Processing, 3) MEN’S Discussion issues, 4) Being GAY/Bi 5) Sex Abuse 6) PARENTS of LGBTQ kids, 7) PORN/SEX addiction.
Often, feeling better requires CHANGE. It’s not easy but your happiness is worth it & so are you. But it must be at your pace. It’s most important that you feel safe. Personal issues can make us feel alone, ashamed or embarrassed. I can help you with that! I’m easy to talk to, with lots of personal experience that enhances my ability to relate. I offer a combination of online & in-person sessions. I work with individuals, couples, & groups. Many clients find it helpful to be part of a support group. Shared experiences of group members help foster an atmosphere of empathy, belonging and understanding.
This group is ongoing and is meeting at my Brookline office. Working in an empathic, non-judgemental, confidential atmosphere, we will discuss issues involved in the grieving process. I will try to organize the themes around the death of a loved one, family member or friend. These groups tend to be more helpful with regular attendance, but there will be some flexibility for people leaving and joining. I encourage you to call me to find out more and ask any questions you may have. 339-999-7250.

Grief Support Groups
How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.
When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.
Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.
What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
