Feeling isolated and lonely. Unable to imagine a happy future without your person in it. Being told "it'll get better in time," which only makes your pain feel dismissed and unheard. Sleeplessness, anger, guilt, and disbelief have become central to your daily life. You want to be able to accept the reality of the loss, speak about it, and openly mourn it. Maybe you're feeling the additional loss of friendships because people are uncomfortable around your grief. You want to feel in control of your emotions, find a way through the darkness, and re-engage in a meaningful life while maintaining the love and connection with your person.
My specialty is grief and trauma, related both to death losses as well as life experiences that may have you feeling at a loss. Grief is a uniquely individual experience and I will keep your needs and concerns centered at all times. Together we will find reconciliation and meaning.
If you are seeking someone to bear witness to your pain and provide compassionate and non-judgmental care, I am here. Avoidance, platitudes, disengagement, and feeling overcome by the depth of your sorrow are no longer working for you. You know you deserve better and it is time to feel heard, understood, and cared for in your grief.
