You can’t imagine feeling okay again now that your loved one is gone. How can the world move on when your own world has stopped? The decisions you’ve made in your life since they died have been about survival and not desires. Truthfully, you aren't even sure what you want anymore. You yearn to feel like yourself again, but you also feel guilty that it could mean letting go of your loved one somehow. You see your peers moving on in their life and you fear that you are falling more and more behind. You worry that what you need most you could only get from the person who is no longer with you. Is this the life you're resigned to?
The answer is a resounding no. Through counseling, I will help you accept the reality of this loss, process the emotional pain you are in, and learn tools to adjust to this new world. Together. we will help you move forward, honoring your loved one rather than leaving them behind, and connecting in a healthy, enduring way rather than through pain.
You're right - life will never be the same as it used to be. But I will meet you where you are, and together we will find your healthy, new normal. It can be a daunting process to find a therapist you feel at ease with - call me today for a free consultation to ensure we're a great fit. You don't need to spend another day alone in your grief.
