A Space for Grief

 

I am passionate about grief work!  My heart has held a special place for this work for over 20 years now. 

And the truth is, grief is something we will all experience in our own way at some point throughout our lives.  Loss of grandparents, parents, spouses, siblings, friends, children, and those special in our lives.  The legacy of those we love does not simply vanish with their passing.  The ways in which they touched our lives matters and so it only makes sense that our grief for those dear to us matters.    

Often grief isn’t validated the same way when it isn’t the result of a death, but instead, is due to changes within our lives such as relationships ending, divorce, job changes, moves, situations turning out differently than we hoped for.  All areas of grief matter!  Your grief is not determined or defined by anyone but you.    

In my therapy space, we make room for grief.  Often society makes us think that we should move on and get over our losses.  But the reality is, grief simply doesn’t work that way.  There is no right or wrong way to show up in your grief.  There is no timeline for grief.  The important thing is that you grieve in the way you most need to, and making space for your grief is an important start.  Together, we create compassion and safety around your grief needs and we allow grief to show up not as a thing to be pushed away, but instead as a welcomed visitor to know and to understand. 

Here at Bloom, you are not alone on your grief journey and it is an honor for me to show up with you.  I am here to walk alongside you as you navigate the array of emotions that commonly show up in the grieving process.  Your grief story is uniquely yours and often grief shows up differently with different losses. 

Your grief always has a home here at Bloom!  Please reach out to start making space for your grief.
