Dear you, who are grieving,
I am so glad that you found me and I am so sorry that you needed to find me.
Being separated by life and death can feel so disorienting, disconnecting, and irreversible. Depending on the relationship you had and how you feel your loss, you will have a whirlwind of emotions, sometimes all in the matter of seconds. You may feel:
Grief, to me, is as complicated, beautiful, tormenting, and meaningful as love. Grief IS love. Grief is all the love you want to give and receive, only to be shown that you can’t, in the sense you know it, ever again. When we lose someone, there are interrupted stories and unfinished words. So much is in your head and in your heart that sometimes you find it absurd that you are “functioning” and that life around you continues as if your world hasn’t been changed forever.
My wish for you, my fellow griever, is that through our time together, with me supporting and guiding you, you will feel this love and loss in a way that deepens your connections with your loved one and the world around you so that it heals and strengthens you for the life ahead.
Contact me for individual grief therapy, I look forward to you sharing your story with me.
In grief, we love,
