Grief & Loss

Grief Can Change Everything, Even When the World Keeps Moving

  • Are you grieving and struggling to make sense of a loss that’s turned your world upside down?

  • Do you feel stuck between sadness, numbness, and the pressure to “move on”?

  • Is it hard to talk about your grief — or even name what you’re feeling?

Grief doesn’t follow a straight line. It can come in waves: heavy one day, quiet the next, and overwhelming again without warning. Whether you’ve lost a loved one, a relationship, your health, a job, or even a future you imagined, the pain of loss is real.

And it’s not something you have to carry alone.

Grief isn’t only about death — though that is one of the most profound forms of loss we experience. People also grieve after a divorce, a miscarriage, a serious diagnosis, the loss of a job or identity, or when a long-held dream no longer feels possible. Even positive life changes, like retirement or sending a child off to college, can carry unexpected grief. What these moments have in common is that something meaningful has changed — and you’re left trying to adjust to a new reality you didn’t ask for. Whatever your loss looks like, your feelings are valid.

 

How Grief Therapy Can Help

Grief looks different for everyone. There’s no “right” way to mourn — only your way.
Therapy can help you:

  • Make space for your feelings of loss without needing to fix or rush it

  • Talk openly about your loss in a nonjudgmental environment

  • Work through guilt, anger, or unresolved emotions

  • Reconnect with a sense of purpose, even in the midst of pain

  • Learn how to honor the loss while staying connected to life

You don’t have to “get over it.” But you can learn to carry it with more compassion and clarity — and feel more like yourself again, in time.

You’re Not Broken — You’re Grieving

Grief is not a problem to solve. It’s a process to move through, one step at a time.
Whether your loss is recent or years old, you deserve support.

Let’s talk about what you’ve lost — and what still matters.
