Grief and Loss Counseling in Bridgewater, NY.

In supporting clients through grief and loss, I provide a compassionate and non-judgmental space where individuals can openly express their emotions and process their pain. Grief is deeply personal, and I work with each client to honor their unique journey, offering guidance as they navigate the complexities of loss. Together, we explore feelings of sadness, anger, confusion, and even moments of hope, helping clients move toward healing at their own pace. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment that fosters emotional expression, resilience, and eventually, a renewed sense of meaning and connection

Grief and loss inevitably leads to anger & sadness. Not surprisingly, it also can lead to depression and feelings of guilt. The latter is called irrational guilt, as most of us lack magical powers to cure dying people. Even if they mean the world to us. I would encourage my clients to express feeling of guilt and anger often unconscious related to the loss. The anger is often at the person who died. Of course, this is irrational anger in most cases, as we all are going to die. The anger is over losing someone we love, value. I would use clinical interventions that usher in the grieving process. This fosters coming to terms with and an acceptance of the loss.

I am committed to helping my patients cope with grieving the loss of a loved one by encouraging them to express their emotions and helping them find meaning in situations that are often tragic.

I provide services that support people in loss of previous life style, loss of their own ability due to a disability, and loss of someone they were close to or a colleague. Grief is different for everyone, but one of the most popular models arranges the 5 stages of grief as Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance.

Since everyone’s grieving is specific to them, my method is adjusted to accommodate my clients.
