Now Accepting New Clients.Schedule Consult

Loss shows up in a lot of forms.

One phone call. One conversation you weren’t ready for.  Maybe one appointment or a diagnosis that changed everything in an instant.

Maybe it was your diagnosis. Maybe it was your spouse’s. Your parent’s. Your child’s. Maybe it was a loss or a death.  And now you’re supposed to just — keep going. Pick up the kids. Go to work. Answer emails. Smile when people say “stay positive.”

But inside you’re terrified. For yourself. For the people who need you. For the person you love and what’s coming. For a future that suddenly looks nothing like you planned.

Maybe it wasn’t a diagnosis at all. Maybe you lost someone. Maybe the life you built looks nothing like you thought it would. Maybe grief just showed up — and you didn’t see it coming.

“What happens to my kids if this gets worse?”

“How do I take care of everyone else when I’m falling apart inside?”

“Am I allowed to be this scared when I’m not even the one who’s sick?”

“Why am I still not okay — it’s been months?”

This is grief — whatever shape it’s taking for you.

This is some of the hardest stuff a person can carry.

I’m Sherri Webster. I’m a licensed clinical social worker with specialized training in grief, health, and chronic illness — and I’ve spent over a decade sitting with people in exactly this moment. The moment after the news. After the loss. When everything is uncertain and the fear is bigger than the words for it.

In-person in Dover, DE and telehealth across six states.

What changes when we work together:

Grief isn’t just about death. It’s about losing the life you thought you’d have.

It’s the diagnosis that changed everything. The person you’re watching change. The role you never asked for. The loss you’re still trying to name. The future that looks nothing like you planned.

Whatever brought you here — this is the right place.

In our work together:

  • You move through hard days without feeling like you’re drowning
  • You get through the hard moments without losing yourself in them
  • You show up for your life without feeling like you’re falling apart inside
  • You find language for what you’re feeling — and permission to feel it
  • You learn to hold space for loss and for living
  • You move from survival mode into something that actually feels like you again

Grief Counseling (Individual)

Grief doesn't always look the way people expect.

Maybe you lost someone. Maybe you're grieving something that hasn't happened yet — carrying fear no one else can see, holding everyone else together, with nowhere to put what you're actually feeling.

Still showing up. Still being what everyone else needs.

Something can shift. There's a difference between carrying this alone and having someone beside you who actually understands it.
This is a space that's just yours — no audience, no expectations.
Available in person in Dover, DE and via telehealth across six states.

You Don’t Have to Keep Doing This Alone.

Grief shows up in so many ways. A loss. A diagnosis. A life that looks nothing like you planned. Whatever brought you here — you've likely been holding more than most people can see.

Not just sadness, but uncertainty. Not just stress, but ongoing emotional vigilance.
And over time, that weight doesn't just stay in the background — it starts shaping how you move through everything else.

Therapy here isn't about forcing positivity or rushing past what's happening.

This is a place where you can be you. You'll be treated like a whole person — not a diagnosis, not a checklist, not a case. Just you, in the middle of something hard.

Where what you're carrying can actually be acknowledged, instead of managed in silence.
