Losing a loved one is one of life’s most profound experiences. Grief is not a disease to be cured, but a natural and necessary response to love and attachment. As they often say: Sorrow is the price of love.
When the world feels fundamentally changed.
Grief can feel like an overwhelming wave of loss, but it can also contain anger, anxiety or a deep, inner pain that is difficult to put into words. Many experience a feeling of hopelessness, where it is difficult to imagine that everyday life will ever be meaningful again.
For most, hope gradually returns over time, but for others grief can set in as a stuck state that requires extra support and care to navigate.
Finding a place for sadness in life.
The goal of grief work is not for the grief to disappear completely, but for you to learn to live with it in a way where you can once again function and find joy. Together we can explore:
The relationship: What significance did the deceased have for you, and what traces have they left in your life?
Grieving: If the death occurred after a long illness, you may have already gone through several grueling phases before the actual loss occurred.
Identity: Losing e.g. his parents can leave him feeling alone in the world in a completely new and fundamental way.
You don’t have to carry it alone.
It can be incredibly lonely and difficult to process a major loss on your own. In our conversations, I create a safe space to accommodate all the facets of grief – including the aspects of the relationship that may have been complicated or difficult.
Everyone is welcome here, no matter where you are in your process.
