Adult Grief

Find Your Way Through the Fog of Grief

You don’t have to navigate this loss alone.

Whether you’ve just experienced the death of your spouse, or you’re facing the first profound loss of your life, grief can feel like the ground has fallen out from under you.

Maybe you’re:

  • Numb one moment and overwhelmed the next

  • Struggling to sleep, focus, or care about anything at all

  • Wondering if this pain will ever ease—or if you're doing grief “wrong”

  • Trying to hold it together for others while falling apart inside

This pain is real. And there is a path forward.

Grief Changes You—But It Doesn’t Have to Break You

As a grief counselor specializing in adult loss, I help people like you:

  • Process complex emotions with honesty and compassion

  • Make sense of identity shifts that follow loss

  • Reconnect with yourself and others, even when it feels impossible

  • Begin healing—not by “moving on,” but by integrating your grief into a meaningful life

Whether this is your first significant loss or the devastating loss of your partner, we’ll work together to create a space that is safe, steady, and built for healing.

Still Wondering If Grief Counseling is Right for You?

Grief counseling might help if:

  • You feel lost or stuck in your grief

  • You’re unsure how to talk to friends and family about what you’re experiencing

  • You want to honor your loss while still finding a path forward

  • You’re ready to begin healing, but not ready to “move on”

No pressure. Just a compassionate conversation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Grief Counseling

  • If you’re feeling overwhelmed, numb, angry, confused, or like you’re stuck in your grief, it’s a sign that you could benefit from support. Grief counseling offers a non-judgmental space to process what you’re feeling, understand your unique grief experience, and begin healing at your own pace.

  • Every session is shaped by you. We talk through what you’re experiencing emotionally, mentally, and even physically. You’ll learn tools to cope with the hardest moments, explore your memories and identity shifts, and feel seen without being rushed or “fixed.”

  • Yes. Spousal loss often shatters the structure of daily life, your sense of self, and your future plans. Feeling lost, like you’re floating or fragmented, is deeply human. Grief counseling can help you start to rebuild safety, meaning, and connection.

  • There’s no manual for grief—especially the first time it hits with full force. If this is your first significant loss, it’s completely normal to feel like you don’t know what to do. Counseling can guide you through what grief really looks like (not just what culture says it “should” be).

  • There’s no one-size-fits-all timeline. Some people come for a few months, others stay longer. You don’t have to commit to anything long-term upfront. We’ll begin where you are and check in regularly to see what feels right for you.

  • No. You set the pace. Whether you need to talk, cry, sit in silence, or just be in a space where someone understands—your grief gets to show up however it needs to. There’s no pressure to perform or explain before you’re ready.

  • The first step is a free 20-minute discovery call. We’ll talk about what you’re going through and what kind of support you’re looking for. There’s no obligation—just a chance to connect and see if this feels like the right next step.
