Grief and Loss Counseling in Meridian, ID.

Healing from a loss is not linear and may surprise you with twists and turns of emotion that affect all aspects of your life. My approach is to use psychoeducation of self-compassion and the tasks of the grief process. I also incorporate EMDR therapy, mindfulness, narrative therapy, and somatic awareness. More importantly, having a consistent, reliable source of acceptance and empathy may be the soul salve that is needed.

I provide a safe and nonjudgmental space for individuals to express their feelings and emotions related to grief and loss. I offer empathy and understanding, helping clients navigate the complex and often overwhelming emotions associated with the experience. Grief can be a confusing and isolating experience, and individuals may question the intensity or duration of their emotions. I can help validate the client's experience and reassure them that their reactions are normal and natural responses to loss.

Grief and loss are some of the most common reasons individuals seek therapy and the feeling of loss can come from many different sources. Having a child leave for college, for example, is a loss that many parents struggle with. Losing a loved one, through death, divorce or separation is common as well. The sadness and hopelessness you feel can seem overwhelming. Having a listening ear and a caring heart from a professional can make all the difference in helping you through this difficult time. There is no reason to make this difficult journey alone.
