Grief

Offering in-person therapy in Denver, CO. Virtual therapy offered in Colorado, DC, and Virginia.

Maybe your experience of grief is...

You're in an ocean of sadness, getting hit wave after wave, and you're drowning. You're trying to stay afloat but the grief feels so heavy and neverending. It feels so difficult to access any joy, lightness, or other feeling.

The grief feels too complicated to feel or explain. It feels like no one will understand, sometimes, it feels like you don't even understand. There's anger, sadness, heaviness, pain - it's too complex to make sense of it all. 

Maybe you lost a loved one, someone you had a complicated relationship with, a pet, a career, an idea, a relationship, or maybe you're feeling the collective grief of the world. 

Together, let's move through your grief.

If any of the above resonated with you, I'm glad you're here. Grief is an inherent part of our human experience and you deserve to live your life without feeling overwhelmed by it.

In our work together, we'll...

  • compassionately explore the ways your grief impacts you to better understand your grief.

  • build your skills to better be with your grief so it feels less overwhelming and you can experience more connection and live life fully.

  • heal the wounds that may be causing this deep grief. 

How We Work with Grief

Somatic Therapy

Somatic therapy helps people process grief by tuning into the body, where emotions often live when words fall short. By gently bringing awareness to sensations, breath, and movement, you can release held tension, feel more grounded, and move through grief in a way that honors both the emotional and physical impact of loss.

You don't have to be alone in your grief. Reach out today for a free consultation.
