Grief isn’t something
you can just “get over.”
It’s deeply personal, and it touches every part of your life in ways you may not even realize. Whether you’re mourning the loss of a loved one, a relationship, a life transition, or a dream that didn’t go the way you hoped, grief has a way of making us feel untethered.
​
You don’t have to go through it alone.
​
Grieving is a process—one that unfolds differently for everyone. There’s no timeline, no right way to feel, and no magic formula to make it easier. But there is space for you here, to feel your emotions fully and process them without judgment.
​
What Grief Can Feel Like
​
Grief can come in waves—some days, you might feel okay, and then, out of nowhere, a memory or a reminder knocks the wind out of you. It can feel like:
​
-
Numbness or detachment from others
-
Anger or frustration at the world
-
A deep sadness that lingers or resurfaces
-
Isolation or feeling misunderstood by people around you
-
Confusion about your future, your purpose, or your identity
​
Whatever you’re feeling, it’s valid. And sometimes, talking about it with someone who understands the complex layers of grief can help you start to find your footing again.

Specialized Support for Different Types of Loss

Grief looks different depending on the type of loss you’re experiencing. Whether you’ve lost a loved one, are grieving a life change, or are navigating ambiguous losses (like losing a sense of self or identity), I’ll meet you where you are.
