What is Grief Counseling?
Grief counselors, also called bereavement counselors, are qualified healthcare professionals who provide counseling and therapy to individuals who have experienced a tremendous loss in their life. Our role is to help support you through the stages of grief so that you can resume a “new normal” and live a healthy life. Grief counseling is not limited to an age range, we help people of all ages through the most difficult time of their life.
In order to process a significant loss a griever must:
Find the words to express the loss
Be in a safe place where you can say those words aloud
Know that the words have been heard
Though all grievers need to experience these three milestones, learning to live with the loss of a loved one affects children and adults in different ways.
Here’s why grief counseling can be a helpful and valuable experience…
“When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone.”
— Fred Rogers
“Grief is not a disorder, a disease or a sign of weakness. It is an emotional, physical and spiritual necessity, the price you pay for love. The only cure for grief is to grieve.”
— Earl Grollman
How Can I Support You?
Adult Grief
The benefit of grief counseling is the opportunity to explore the varied feelings of grief and learn coping strategies for navigating your “new normal”
Children’s Grief
If you give a child the gift of grief counseling, the child’s experience will include play therapy, memory sharing, and more.

For two decades, I have specialized in bereavement counseling for adults and children. I have created magic and given the experience of “I’m not alone” to people from age 3 to 73 (and older!). I have worked with hundreds of children at Comfort Zone Camp, the nation’s largest bereavement camp for children. My experience has also included adult support groups at the United Hospice of Rockland and Healing Hearts children’s grief groups as well.
