Grief and Bereavement Counseling in NY & NJ
Finding Your Way Through Loss
Grief is a profound, messy, and deeply personal process. There is no timeline for healing, and there is no "right way" to grieve. When a significant person, pet, job, or way of life is lost, the world can feel fundamentally changed, leaving you isolated and overwhelmed.
As a virtual therapist, I provide gentle, holding support for individuals in New York and New Jersey navigating all forms of loss and bereavement. My role is not to "fix" your grief, but to create a compassionate space where you can process your feelings without judgment.
How Therapy Supports the Grieving Process
Grief counseling helps you move through the pain, not around it. In our virtual sessions, we may focus on:
Normalizing Complex Feelings: Allowing space for anger, guilt, confusion, and relief—all of which are common in loss.
Integrating the Loss: Finding ways to keep the connection with what was lost while stepping into a new reality.
Coping with Triggers: Developing strategies to manage birthdays, holidays, and anniversaries.
Rediscovering Identity: Addressing the feeling of "who am I now?" after a defining relationship or role has ended.
Grieving is More Than Just Death
While I offer specific support for the death of a loved one, my practice also helps clients through other significant losses, including:
Loss of a career or long-term job.
The end of a major relationship or friendship.
Loss of physical health or a former self.
Bereavement associated with reproductive loss.
Don't Grieve Alone
If the weight of your loss feels too heavy to carry, I am here for you.
