Grief

Grief changes the way the world feels. When you lose someone—or something—important, life can take on a different texture. You might feel as if you’re moving through fog, getting hit by waves you didn’t see coming, or carrying a quiet heaviness that doesn’t lift. Some days are sharp and raw. Other days feel strangely numb. And sometimes both show up at once, leaving you wondering whether you’re grieving “the right way,” or feeling pressure to be okay before you truly are.

Grief has no timeline, and no two people experience it the same way. It can affect emotions, sleep, appetite, focus, and your sense of identity. It can bring longing, guilt, anger, relief, confusion, or a kind of disorientation you can’t quite put into words. And grief isn’t limited to death—it can also follow divorce, estrangement, miscarriage, the end of a season of life, a lost dream, or any change that matters deeply to you.

Therapy doesn’t try to fix grief. It creates space for it to be witnessed. In our work together, you can speak honestly about what you’ve lost, name what feels complicated or unfinished, and explore how life is changing around you. We can also pay attention to how grief is living in your body and relationships, and begin the gentle work of integrating loss in a way that honors both your experience and your values. I offer virtual grief therapy to adults across Texas.

My approach to grief work is integrative, steady, and paced to your needs. We might explore attachment dynamics and the role of relationship in how loss is held, work with different internal parts through Internal Family Systems (IFS), or make space for questions of meaning, identity, and mortality through an existential lens. At times we may also draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices to support you through intrusive thoughts, anxiety, or the unpredictable waves of emotion that can come with grief. For clients seeking deeper emotional access within a supported therapeutic framework, I also offer in-person Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) in Austin.

Grief isn’t a problem to solve—it’s a process to be supported with tenderness, patience, and presence.

I offer a free 60-minute consultation so we can talk about what you’re going through and see whether working together feels like a good fit.
