Grief and Loss Counseling in Adrian, MO.

Experiencing grief can be gut wrenching and very painful. Healing from the painful loss of a loved one can take time and attempting to move forward seem impossible. I have extended training in helping individuals work through what can seem impossible - but eventually become a little easier with each passing day. Counseling won't cancel your pain - but it can help you move through your pain to understand and respond to your loss in a healthier way.

It is important to understand that working through grief is a journey. It is coming to terms with the loss of hopes, dreams, and visions of what we thought the future would bring. Working through grief takes time and permission to allow ourselves to feel what we feel and still move toward a resolution of hope and healing for the future. Let me help you discover ways of coping that are best suited to you and your pace during this time of healing. Giving yourself permission to move forward with life is not a dismissal of the loss of people, events, physical belongings, or plans that were most important to you… it is redefining what you envision for yourself and your future.

I am passionate about my work with individuals suffering with grief and loss. I have been touched personally by significant losses including the death of my father when I was a child and the unexpected death of my first husband after being married for just seven months. Some life experiences teach you more than what can ever be learned in the classroom. I consider it a privilege to be with you in this process. While no two experiences are the same I can relate in a very real way and be able to draw on experiences to help you manage your way through grief. I can hold your hope when you are left to pick up the pieces and create a life that you can live in without the one you love.

At Trent Sullivan Counseling, we recognize that grief and loss extend beyond the death of a loved one. As a therapist specializing in supporting busy millennials and helping professionals, I understand that grief can stem from various life transitions and endings. Whether it's the loss of a relationship, a career change, or a shift in identity, these experiences can evoke powerful feelings of loss and sorrow. In our therapy sessions, we provide a compassionate space for you to explore these emotions and navigate through the complexities of grief. By acknowledging and honoring these endings, we empower you to find healing, resilience, and a renewed sense of purpose as you move forward in your journey.
