Grief and Loss Counseling

Room to grieve a person, a marriage, a pregnancy, your health or the life you expected, at your own pace.

Grief has no schedule

Grief comes in waves: fine one day, flattened the next. Anniversaries, holidays and ordinary moments can bring it back. There is no correct timeline, and no need to get over someone you loved. Counseling helps you carry the loss and keep living.

Losses we help with

  • The death of a parent, partner, child or friend
  • Pregnancy loss and infertility
  • Divorce and the end of a relationship
  • Loss of health or independence
  • Suicide loss
  • Job loss and other life changes

Questions

Is it too soon to start counseling?

No. You can start any time, from the first weeks to years later.

Do you counsel children who are grieving?

Yes. Our child therapists help kids grieve in ways that fit their age.

Your first session

You can bring photos, memories, or simply your questions. Your counselor will ask about the person or loss, how you are sleeping and eating, who supports you, and what has been hardest. There is no wrong way to start.

Grief in families

Children and adults grieve differently, and family members can feel out of step with each other. Family sessions can help everyone understand one another's grief.
