Working Together

Loss and grief do not automatically offer you a linear path, and does not always resolve may not in the way one expects or is told it should.

This can include loss without closure, illness, or relationships that remain unfinished. It often carries a sense of being stuck, or of holding something that doesn’t fit into familiar ways of understanding grief.

How I Work

My approach is grounded and compassionate, shaped by 25 years in hospice and palliative care.

I draw from clinical experience, emotional depth, and a steady presence with what is difficult to hold. I incorporate integration work to help process experiences that can feel fragmented—emotionally, relationally, and at times, spiritually.

What This Work Is

Working together is not about fixing grief or moving past it, but learning how to integrate it so that life can feel forward moving.

It is about creating a steady place to understand what you are carrying, make sense of what feels unclear, and begin to put language to experiences that have been difficult to name. It’s about discovering who you have been, who you are now, and how to find your footing.

  • your grief feels ongoing or unresolved

‍ ‍THINGS THAT BRING ABOUT GRIEF:

  • someone we care about dies

  • If we or someone we love is diagnosed with a serious illness

  • we lose an important or significant relationship

  • a job loss or change in career

  • aging

  • realizing we are in a toxic or abusive relationship

  • feeling that we have lost direction

  • knowing we need change or growth but not knowing what to do about it

  • unwanted or unwelcome change or something that happens beyond our control

  • anticipating or worrying about any kind of loss

Grieving is a journey that we would rather not go on. It can be deregulating, frightening, and awful. We (and others around us) often have expectations about how it’s supposed to go and how long it is supposed to last. However, there are no rules for grief and everyone experiences it differently.

Navigating through grief can feel like finding one’s way around in the dark. Utilizing the support and help available can make the healing around grief easier, but no matter what, it is not an easy task. Depending on the individual it can take a little or a long time to navigate complex feelings and for a person to find their footing again.

We can work together to discover the pathway to healing, and lessen the feeling of shame for ‘not doing it right’. We will move at a gentle pace and as we explore what has happened, what is happening now, what might be getting uncovered at this difficult time in life, and what is needed to eventually move forward.

UNRESOLVED GREIF CAN LEAD TO:

  • an increase in anger or depression

  • deterioration of relationships at home and at work.

  • general unhappiness and moodiness

  • poor mental and/or physical health

  • poor quality of life

‍ ‍WHAT GRIEF FEELS LIKE:

  • having a difficult time doing normal or daily tasks

  • trouble concentrating and feeling out of balance

  • physical symptoms such as nausea, loss of appetite, headaches, not able to sleep, sleeping too much, anxiety,

  • listlessness, lack of motivation or energy
