Grief & Loss

Maybe it’s the end of a marriage, you had been unhappy for a very long time; or, maybe, you just found out that your partner was having a long-term affair but, either way, you’ve decided to end the long-term commitment. You know you need to move on but you may feel guilty, angry, ashamed, betrayed, scared and even numb or paralyzed. What’s next? 

Maybe you lost a family member. A parent, a spouse, or a child and you feel devastated. Life will never be the same and you are consumed with disbelief, anger, sadness and fear. 

I help people go through the grief & loss process, examine their role in the situation, find their strengths, and take the steps to become whole again and start rebuilding their lives.

In addition to people’s emotional turmoil. Often times there are children, custody, housing, property, money involved and people tend to get overwhelmed and paralyzed in the process. It’s very important to have a support system and having a compassionate, understanding and dynamic counselor who can be a neutral ally and offer tools to help you address your emotional needs while helping you have the presence of mind to stay focused in order to address the practical aspects of the situation.

Whether or not you were the one who decided to end the marriage or caused the end of the marriage. Or you had no control over the situation. There are common thoughts and feelings of failure and anxiety about the future. I will be there for you all along the way empowering you to become a stronger and more resilient person capable to handling things that you never thought were possible before.
