Our work - Grief, Living Grief and Loss: How I Support You

There is no right way to grieve

Grief changes everything. It can arrive suddenly, or grow quietly over time. It can feel sharp, heavy, numb, chaotic—or all of these at once. Whether you are grieving the death of a loved one, navigating a loss that others do not fully see, or carrying an ongoing sadness that never quite goes away, therapy can offer a space to just be with what is true for you.

What Therapy for Grief and Loss Can Offer

1. A space where nothing needs to be fixed

Grief is not a problem to solve. In our work together, you will have the space to speak freely, cry, rage, remember, or sit in silence—whatever you need that day. You do not have to hide your feelings or make them more "manageable" here.

2. Support for all kinds of loss

You might be grieving a person, a relationship, a future you imagined, your health, a version of yourself—or something that never got to be. All of that is welcome. Loss comes in many forms, and none of them are too small or too complicated to name.

3. Holding space for living grief

Not all grief comes after a death. You may be living with a long-term illness, caring for someone whose mind or body is changing, or feeling the weight of estrangement, infertility, or a life that has turned out differently than you hoped. This is grief, too—and it deserves to be acknowledged.

4. Gentle exploration and grounding

When you are ready, we can explore the layers of your loss and how it is affecting you. I draw from person-centred and psychodynamic approaches, alongside grounding tools to help with the emotional and physical toll of grief. We move at your pace.

You might be here if you are experiencing:

My Approach

Compassionate and non-rushed – There is no pressure to "move on." I walk alongside you, wherever you are.

Relational and reflective – We honour your relationship to what has been lost, and hold space for all your emotions, even the conflicting ones.

Trauma-informed – If your grief is linked with trauma or past pain, we can work gently and safely to support healing.

Grief is not something you get over. But you do not have to carry it alone.

Therapy offers a place to process, remember, honour, and eventually begin to live alongside your loss in a way that feels more bearable—and sometimes even meaningful.

When you are ready, I am here. If you are grieving or living with a loss—recent or long ago—I offer a warm and steady space to help you navigate what comes next.
