Grief and Loss Counseling in Edgewater, CO.

When working with grief and loss, I use talk therapy, narrative therapy and EMDR to help people process their hurts and be able to move forward. I start with resourcing so that people can develop coping skills and stability before diving into their grief and trauma. With children, play therapy can be a great additional tool to use to help them process their grief indirectly.

Unfortunately grief and loss is a part of life. Loss of a loved one, a divorce, loss of a job are all reasons people experience grief. Everyone experiences a loss in their own way. I will help you deal with the grief you are experencing by allowing you to feel without judgement. I use techniques such as guided imagery and breathing techniques to help you face and feel your grief instead of burying it. Sometimes we never get over a loss but with support and help, you can get through it.

Grief is not linear. After loss, the sadness comes unexpectedly. It waxes and wanes on its own. The only way to be with it is to let it move through you. If you try to bottle it up, it will come out later. It can also build in your system lead to other emotional difficulties. Grief is a natural process and it's important to let it happen. I'm here to support you in being with the grief in a compassionate, kind way.

The process of grieving is complex. There are several types of grief other than the death of a loved one. There is no "right or wrong" way to move through this painful process.

My goal is to meet you where you are and facilitate healing in a safe & trusting environment.

The goals is never to get over it, because no one ever really does. Whatever your experience, I believe you can get through it and grow through it - and you don't have to do it alone!

However, I can help you identify barriers to grief, and help you prevent the grief process from becoming stuck. I know grief professionally. But I also know grief personally.

It provides a space for individuals to work through and process the complex emotions surrounding loss. Healthy grieving results in remembering the loss with a newfound sense of peace, rather than searing pain.

In grief and loss therapy, I work with you to honor and explore the stories that connect you to your loved one or the experience you have lost. Rather than seeing grief as something to “move on” from, we work to respect and integrate the relationship you hold with your memories, allowing them to have a place in your life. Together, we’ll re-author your story of loss to include your resilience, values, and the meaningful legacies that endure, helping you find ways to re-engage with life in a way that feels authentic to you.

Connecting to our experiences of grief & loss means connecting to ourselves again. As people, a common experience we share is that of loss. Sometimes a loss is a death, or the end of a relationship. Other times it may be result from a change in a persons health, possessional or security loss, or dreams and desires. The impact of a loss resonates through various parts of our life. The impact my be our sleep, nutrition, motivation, mood, relationships, job, or even passions/hobbies. It can feel overwhelming to sort out all the feelings and experiences. Counseling gives you a space to safely unload your experiences, receive validation, and create steps to reconnect to yourself and your life.

The death of a loved one is possibly the single most difficult experience that anyone can face. Seeking out counseling is a good way to handle the grief and loss that come after experiencing loss. Your counselor can help you explore the intense feelings of sadness and loss. Many people are expected to continue their normal daily activities after a loss, such as going to work and taking care of family. Therefore, they are unable to fully experience and explore their grief. Yet research has shown that the more deeply you can feel and understand your pain the better prepared you will be to move beyond your grief and re-enter normal life. Call today: (970) 227-2770.

Life can be seen as a series of losses. We do not suffer because of these losses, but because we do not know how to deal with the losses in healthy ways. Pain is part of life and pain needs to be embraced and understood. Grief is a normal response to loss. It takes us on a jouney of self-discovery and personal renewal. It is when we deny, minimize and run away from the uncomfortable feelings that flow from losses that we create our own internal problems. I can help you find the courage to face the pain of loss and disappointments. That will enable you will grow through the difficult parts and become a more fully alive person.

Greif and loss are inevitable in life and there isn't a standard timetable or way in which we may find resolution. In some cases the goal isn't to resolve our grieving as much as learn to live with loss. I take an individual approach to living with grief and loss. We can use mindfulness techniques to be able to experience our pain in order to allow our emotions to be expressed.

Grief is normal, and it is a painful part of life that we all must face. Sometimes you can feel really alone, or feel like you will never get back to normal again. Maybe you lost a loved one suddenly, and this has been traumatic. Or perhaps you struggled for a long time caring for an ailing family member. And there are many other types of grief. We can help you to navigate the journey of healing from loss so that the experience enriches your life rather than taking a piece of you.

Grief and loss differ in children and teens as opposed to adults. Children and teens experience numerous losses due to the transitions of every day life circumstance and developmental stages. For example; they have different teachers and classmates every year, they may not be able to play a sport they once loved , their environment may be changing due to separation or divorce and finally the death of a loved one. Children and teens need guidance, support, love and the tools to cope with a loss. I can help your child express his emotions in healthy manner and get through the feeling of hurt and despair. * I use play therapy, art therapy, bibliotherapy and journaling

There can be intense emotional pain associated with grief and loss. Sometimes we use unhealthy means of numbing the pain. My goal is to assist you in allowing yourself to go through the grieving process and get to the other side. When we experience a loss, grieving is the natural way of letting go of that which we can no longer have and allow space within us to open up to things we can have. This does not mean we forget or discard the person, item or situation we have lost but that we put things into a productive perspective. Therapeutic approaches: client-centered, relaxation techniques, emotion regulation, skill building and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing)

Sitting alone in grief can be the hardest thing to do. As I sit with you and allow some of what needs to be released to be released, my hope is that you feel a sense of safety and healing. We walk through the stages of grief at your own pace: honoring memories, hurting from loss, feeling the "ugly" feelings of hurt and loss, and working through the transition of what life looks like now. Your healing can only happen in your timing, there is no right or wrong.

I will provide a supportive, caring environment to grieve your loss. Together we can discover what you need to best deal with your grief and loss. Everyone has a different perspective, I will listen to your story and support you so that you might find a sense of hope for the future. If you are looking for some structure to feel more secure, or simply an open space to feel understood, I can meet you where you are.

I am a prolonged grief therapist trained by The Prolonged Grief Institute at Colombia University. The following are the cornerstones of my approach to Grief and Loss: Grief is the natural response to loss and it doesn’t have a time limit. Grief doesn’t go away completely, but we change our relationship to it. Adapting is different from coping. Adapting happens naturally. It’s what living things do when we are faced with meaningful changes.
