About

Are you struggling to accept a painful loss or changes in your life? Whether it’s the death of a loved one, a serious illness or the burden of caregiving, nothing really prepares us for grief when it arrives. The emotions may feel overwhelming and it’s natural to want to avoid them altogether. For a while you can survive by staying busy and distracting yourself, but these strategies are not sustainable forever. Grief can feel like just one more thing to manage, especially if you already have a full plate. Healthy, intentional grieving is the way forward! If this sounds terrifying to you, don’t worry- this is what grief counseling is for! You will learn ways to cope with these painful feelings and memories. We will address the anxieties and stresses of daily life that are exacerbated by grief. And by identifying what really matters, we will chart a path forward into rebuilding a meaningful life.
