If you are caring for someone with a serious illness, raising a child with complex needs, or running on empty after years of putting everyone else first — this is the right place.
You already know how to show up for the people you love. What's harder is asking for something for yourself. Many of my clients waited longer than they should have before reaching out, because they felt guilty, or because they convinced themselves they could handle it alone. If that sounds familiar, I want you to know: getting support isn't a sign that you're struggling. It's a sign that you're paying attention.

FAQ - Grief Psychiatrists
How can psychiatrists help with grief?
Grief is a strong emotional response to loss, often triggered by the death of a loved one, the end of a meaningful relationship, or a major life transition. While grief itself is not a mental health disorder, it can cause a range of physical and emotional symptoms, such as disrupted sleep, changes in appetite, irritability, and nausea. Grief can also intensify symptoms of existing mental health conditions, such as depression or anxiety. Although many people experience a gradual easing of grief over time, others may find that their symptoms persist or interfere with daily life. In these cases, working with a psychiatrist who has experience supporting individuals through grief can be beneficial.
How do psychiatrists approach treatment for grief?
Because there are no specific medications or therapy type designed solely for grief, treatment typically begins with a thorough assessment of an individual's current symptoms and circumstances. Based on this evaluation, a psychiatrist may recommend a personalized treatment plan. This could include the prescription of medication, such as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), a type of antidepressant that may help regulate mood during the grieving process. Psychiatrists may also incorporate evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients examine how their thoughts about loss contribute to emotional distress, or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on accepting painful emotions and identifying coping strategies that align with one's personal values and long-term goals.
How can I find a psychiatrist who specializes in grief support?
To find a psychiatrist who specializes in grief, individuals can use the Psychology Today provider directory, which allows users to filter by therapeutic approach, insurance accepted, or shared identity characteristics, such as gender. When reaching out to a potential provider, it can be useful to ask about their experience working with grief, how they approach treatment planning, and whether they offer both medication management and therapy. Practical considerations such as office location, telehealth availability, and insurance coverage should also be considered to ensure a good fit.
