For the ones who are still showing up — but barely recognizing themselves anymore. You’re still grieving. Maybe it’s been months. Maybe years. Maybe you’re not even sure what you’re grieving — you just know something feels off and it won’t go away. Grief therapy for adults looks different than what most people expect. It’s not about getting over it or moving on. It’s about finally having space to actually feel it — and figuring out who you are on the other side of loss.
Maybe you lost someone and the grief is still there long after everyone else moved on. Maybe you’re not even sure what you’re grieving — you just know something has changed and you haven’t been the same since.
You don’t have to be in crisis to deserve support. You just have to be tired of feeling this way.
That’s what therapy at Rising Sails is for.
What We Work On
Grief & Loss
Grief is not linear and it does not have a deadline. It shows up in waves — sometimes expected, sometimes completely out of nowhere. It can follow the death of someone you loved, but it can also follow the end of a relationship, a job, a version of your life you thought you’d have. It can be loud and consuming or quiet and chronic. Either way it deserves real space and real attention.
Therapy helps you move through grief at your own pace — not get over it, not rush past it, but actually process it so it stops ambushing you when you least expect it.
When Grief Looks Like Anxiety
Grief doesn’t always look like sadness. Sometimes it shows up as a brain that won’t stop, a body that’s always braced for something, an inability to rest without guilt or unease. Waking up at 3am. Dreading ordinary things. Overthinking every interaction. If this sounds familiar — and you’ve experienced a significant loss — what you’re carrying might be grief wearing anxiety’s face.
When Grief Looks Like Depression
Sometimes grief looks like going through the motions. Like being present in your life but not really feeling it. Like losing interest in things that used to matter, feeling disconnected from the people around you, or carrying a low-grade sadness that never quite goes away. If you’ve been wondering whether this is just how things are now — it’s not.
Feeling Lost
Sometimes the grief isn’t about a person. It’s about a version of yourself, a relationship, a life you thought you’d have. That quiet disorientation is real and it’s worth addressing. You don’t need a crisis to start therapy. You just need to want something different.
How It Works
Sessions are one-on-one and built entirely around you. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, mindfulness-based techniques, and strengths-based practice — using whatever combination actually fits where you are and where you want to go. Learn more about me HERE.
You don’t need to have it figured out before you show up. You just need to show up.
