A place to work through what you carry
Loss can leave you feeling sad, angry, anxious, numb or disconnected. You may be grieving someone who died, a pregnancy loss, a relationship or a major change in the life you expected. Your experience does not have to look a particular way to deserve support.
Therapy offers a place to talk about what happened and what daily life feels like now. We consider your relationships, culture, history and support system, while making room for emotions that may be hard to explain elsewhere.
What online therapy can help you practice
Meet with your therapist by secure video from a private space in Michigan. You can start with what feels most pressing, even if you are unsure how to explain it. Together, you identify patterns and choose practical goals.
Therapy may help you notice stress earlier, manage irritability, respond to conflict with more intention, set boundaries and communicate needs. It can also offer space to process grief, understand trauma responses or make sense of a major change.
The work is collaborative. Some sessions focus on tools you can use between appointments; others explore experiences or relationships that continue to affect your life. You set the pace with your therapist.
The approaches we draw on
Our work is guided by the Person Centered Integration Model (PCIM), which combines individualized care with evidence-based therapy. We consider your relationships, experiences, culture, strengths and goals to shape support around your experience of loss.
Your therapist can help you process emotions, practice coping skills, communicate needs and build support for daily life. Care may draw on person-centered support, emotional regulation, mindfulness and trauma-informed approaches when appropriate. You and your therapist choose a pace and focus that fit your needs.
Relationships and life after loss
People close to you may grieve differently or struggle to know how to help. Therapy can support communication, boundaries and connection while you adjust to changed roles or routines. You may also want support around anniversaries, holidays or reminders of the loss. Individual, couples or family therapy can offer space to understand each other and ask for what you need.
