THERAPY FOR GRIEF & LOSS IN NY & NJ.
A place to process change, grief, & everything that comes with them.
When you experience big changes—whether expected or unexpected—it can leave you grieving a version of life you thought you’d have.
MAYBE YOU’RE IN THE AFTERMATH OF…
Losing a spouse, parent, pet, or loved one
A divorce or breakup
A major career change
Immigrating to a new country
You or a loved one receiving a life-changing diagnosis
You may still feel the weight of your loss, even if it’s been months—or years—and wonder if you should be doing better by now. Sometimes, you find yourself reliving certain moments, going over what happened and what you wish you could have done differently. You always thought you’d have more time to do, say, and be the things you wanted to.
You still have to show up for everyone else, especially your kids or your family, but it feels like you’re falling apart whenever you get a moment of quiet. If you’ve recently moved to a new country, this can feel especially hard—with the added stress of missing your old life while struggling to adjust to life in a different culture. It’s clear you need support, but you don’t want to be a burden on your loved ones, so you keep it in and carry it all alone.
You can’t go back to the before, but you can give yourself grace here in the after.
HOW I CAN HELP
Holding space for when you are not okay & helping you find relief in small, meaningful ways.
Sometimes you just need a place where you can talk about the person you lost, or what your life looked like before everything changed, without worrying about how it will affect the mood. That’s where we begin. Whether it’s a recent loss or one that’s been quietly shaping your life for years, I’ll sit with you in it—no rush, no pressure.
We’ll talk about the very real toll grief can take—on your body, your focus, your energy—and explore what helps you find little moments of peace in the midst of it all. Together, we’ll look at what kind of support you need, what rest and care might actually look like for you now, and ways to keep honoring what (or who) you’ve lost. If there’s something more deeply rooted we need to explore within your grief, we can also use Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) to gently move through those layers. We won’t be trying to “fix” anything, we’ll be making space for your grief while you find new ways to keep going.
This isn’t about “moving on”.
It’s about honoring your story.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How long does grief usually last?
There’s no timeline for grief—it comes in waves, and it doesn’t care what the calendar says. You might feel okay one day and completely undone the next, even months or years later. It’s not about “getting over it,” but learning how to carry it in a way that doesn’t take you under. I’ll walk with you through that process and help you find your footing again, however long it takes.
Do you only help people grieving the loss of a person?
Not at all. Grief shows up in all kinds of losses—ending a relationship, losing a job or a sense of identity, moving to a new country, or becoming a parent when life shifts in big ways. Sometimes the world doesn’t recognize your grief, but that doesn’t make it any less real. Whatever shape your loss has taken, I’m here to help you make space for it and begin to figure out what life looks like now.
What are the stages of grief?
You might’ve heard about the five stages—denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance—but real grief doesn’t follow neat steps. It’s messy and non-linear—you can be laughing in the morning and gutted by afternoon. What’s more important than the stages is that we pay attention to how your grief is showing up, and what you need to get through it. In therapy, we’ll honor what’s real for you instead of trying to fit it into a formula.
