You’re not sure how you got here, but it just doesn’t feel right. You want to move forward somehow but don’t know how. Everything feels hard and you wish things were different.
My first job is to make sure you feel heard and understood. I want to hear your story and understand who you are, how you got here, and from there we’ll chart a path that feels congruent with your values.
You’ve heard of the 5 stages of grief, and you’ve felt them all, but you still feel sad and depressed. So much time has passed since the loss and you don’t understand why you “can’t get over it.” You’ve heard all the grief cliches and they only make you feel worse.
I trained at a hospice agency providing grief counseling and understand the magnitude of loss and how it can upend one’s life.
Sessions with me have been described as kind, compassionate, and thoughtful.
