Grief and Loss Counseling in Parma, ID.

Losing a child is one of the most profound losses that life can give you. I have experienced that loss. I understand the process of grief and how to help others to navigate that journey. So many people think that the model for grief is the 5 stages of grieving by Kubler-Ross, thought this is a good tool it does not encompass the experience. Many people goes through those states several times a day while in profound grief. There is no linear path in grief. Grieving is a highly personal journey that I can help you with.

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.

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.
