Grief and Loss

Experiencing loss can be overwhelming.

That day was so sad when you lost your loved one. You wished that day would never come, but sadly, here it is, and now you feel stuck, in shock, in disbelief, and are deeply pained. You feel lost and unsure where to turn.

Whether you lost a loved one to suicide or an elderly parent to natural causes, or anything else in between, the pain is there. Death is inevitable yet devastating. Part of you wants to stop, pick up the pieces, and move on, while another part feels devastated and lost, not knowing what to do or where to turn.

You wish it were all a bad dream from which you can awake and see your loved one beside you, still alive and well. But unfortunately, that is not the case.

Friends and family members try to comfort you, but you are inconsolable. Nothing they say helps. They tell you that things will get better, but every day that passes seems to feel worse. You ask, “Will things ever get better and if so how and when?”

Therapy can make a difference.

Perhaps it’s time to seek help from a therapist who gets it. You no longer need to suffer in silence.

As therapists, we typically shy away from disclosing personal details of our lives. Yet when it comes to grief and loss, it is especially crucial to demonstrate that you understand where the grieving person is coming from, as the saying goes, “Experience is the best teacher.”

I lost my mom some years ago and know what it is like to grieve the loss of a loved one, and have since helped many like you who are struggling to find peace.

While no two people experience grief similarly, there is at least some relatability. But what is most important is that I am here to hear your story and unique experience, hold you emotionally, and be there with you fully as we work through this together.

The approach is tailored to your needs.

As we work together, the goal is to help you become a stronger person on the other side.

Because no two people experience loss in the same way, I will work with you based on your situation and needs. “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” Together, we will work on helping you find meaning in the struggle of the loss and in the loss itself. As Friedrich Nietzsche said, “That which does not kill us, makes us stronger.”

I know that going through the loss of a loved one is very painful. Yet, part of grief work is learning to see yourself differently by finding meaning in the struggle of the loss.

Imagine what you would like life to be like after the loss, and recognize that you have the power to achieve that goal. I will help you make that happen.

I will be with you every step of the way.

Grief often comes with highs and lows, better days and worse days.

As you travel along that bumpy, unpredictable, and tedious road, I am here to be by your side – through thick and thin.

During the difficult, sad moments, I will cry with you, and when happy and exciting memories and moments appear, we will laugh and share joy.

Don’t navigate your loss alone.

You owe it to yourself to stop suffering in silence. I know reaching out is hard, and you are very reluctant and scared. That is why I am here to offer you a free phone consultation so you can feel 100 percent confident in your decision before we start working together.
