Grief Therapy: Finding Your Way Through Loss

Grief changes everything. When someone or something deeply meaningful is lost — a loved one, a relationship, a community, a dream, or a sense of identity — it can leave you feeling disoriented, numb, or overwhelmed. You may find yourself swinging between sadness and anger, exhaustion and restlessness, longing and disbelief.

Many people experiencing grief feel a deep loneliness, even when surrounded by others. You might question who you are without what you’ve lost, struggle to connect with daily life, or feel pressure to “move on” when you’re not ready. Grief is not a linear process, and there’s no right way to do it — but you don’t have to do it alone.

What Grief Therapy Can Look Like

In grief therapy, our work together will create space for your pain to be witnessed with care and without judgment. Using trauma-informed practices, mindfulness, parts work (Internal Family Systems-Informed), and self-compassion, I help you gently explore the many layers of your loss.

Therapy sessions might include slowing down to notice what your body is holding, giving voice to the parts of you that are grieving, or finding small ways to reconnect with meaning and safety. Mindfulness helps you stay present with your emotions without becoming overwhelmed, while self-compassion offers the kindness and permission you may not be receiving elsewhere.

Grief therapy isn’t about “getting over” your loss — it’s about learning to live with it in a way that honors both your pain and your love. Together, we’ll work toward integrating your loss into your story, finding ways to remember without being consumed, and reconnecting to what still brings you purpose.

Life After Grief Therapy

Over time, the intensity of grief begins to shift. The ache may never disappear entirely, but it can become more spacious, less sharp. Many clients describe a growing sense of calm, connection, and acceptance — a feeling that they can carry both their loss and their life with gentleness.

You might find moments of joy that no longer feel like betrayal, or a deeper appreciation for your relationships, your boundaries, and your resilience. Life after grief therapy can mean living more fully — not in spite of your loss, but because of what it’s taught you about love, impermanence, and being human.

If you’re ready to begin healing in your own time and at your own pace, grief therapy can offer a compassionate space to remember, release, and rebuild.
