ONLINE GRIEF & LOSS THERAPY
Virtual grief therapy in Colorado, Massachusetts, New York, Vermont, and Florida
Grief can change the way you move through everything: your work, relationships, body, routines, identity, faith, and sense of safety in the world.
Sometimes grief comes after a death. Sometimes it follows a breakup, divorce, job loss, health change, family estrangement, infertility, caregiving stress, a major move, or the loss of a life you thought you would have. It can also show up before a loss fully happens, known as anticipatory grief & loss.
At Wellcore Healing, I provide online grief and loss therapy for adults navigating painful losses, major transitions, and the emotional aftermath of life-changing events. Sessions are available virtually for clients in Massachusetts, New York, Colorado, Vermont, and Florida, including Denver, Boston, NYC, Burlington, Miami, and beyond.
Grief Is Not Something You Have to “Get Over”
Grief is not a problem to solve. It is a human response to losing someone or something meaningful.
You may feel sad, angry, numb, anxious, guilty, relieved, disconnected, or completely unlike yourself. You may be functioning on the outside while privately feeling overwhelmed. You may be back at work, answering emails, caring for others, and doing what needs to be done, while still feeling like part of your life has split into before and after.
There is no correct timeline for grief and there is definitely no perfect way to process loss. Therapy gives you space to slow down, name what has changed, and begin making sense of your experience without pressure to perform healing for anyone else.
Types of Grief and Loss I Support
Grief is not limited to the death of a loved one. Loss can take many forms, and each one deserves care.
I support clients navigating:
Death of a loved one, friend, partner, family member, or pet
Anticipatory grief before an expected loss
Breakups, divorce, or relationship loss
Family estrangement or complicated family dynamics
Job loss, career change, retirement, or professional identity shifts
Health changes, chronic illness, injury, infertility, or medical trauma
Caregiving stress and role changes
Loss connected to aging, motherhood, identity, home, community, or major life transitions
Disenfranchised grief, meaning grief that others minimize, misunderstand, or fail to recognize
Your loss does not need to look dramatic to be real. If it changed you, it matters.
Common Grief and Loss Symptoms
Grief can affect far more than your mood. It can show up in the body, nervous system, relationships, work, and daily functioning.
You may be experiencing:
Shock, denial, numbness, or confusion
Sadness, despair, anger, guilt, shame, or regret
Anxiety, panic, irritability, or emotional overwhelm
Feeling lost, detached, abandoned, responsible, or stuck
Difficulty sleeping, nightmares, fatigue, or low motivation
Body tension, headaches, stomach upset, appetite changes, or physical heaviness
Poor concentration, work disruption, decision fatigue, or difficulty staying organized
Social withdrawal, isolation, relationship stress, or feeling misunderstood
Changes in faith, spirituality, meaning, or sense of purpose
These responses are not signs that you are grieving wrong. They are signs that your mind and body are trying to process something significant.
How Grief Therapy Can Help
Online grief counseling can help you understand your grief, care for your nervous system, and begin rebuilding a life that still has room for meaning.
Together, we may focus on helping you:
Understand your grief response without judging it
Create steadier routines during an unstable time
Identify the support you need and the people who can actually offer it
Process painful emotions, memories, thoughts, and unfinished conversations
Work through guilt, anger, anxiety, regret, or self-blame
Care for the physical impact of grief, including sleep, tension, fatigue, and overwhelm
Navigate work, family, parenting, caregiving, or relationship responsibilities while grieving
Create rituals, boundaries, or practices that help you honor what was lost
Reconnect with parts of yourself that feel distant, shut down, or changed
Move forward without feeling like you are leaving someone or something behind
The goal will never be to erase the loss or just push ahead. The goal is to help you carry it with more support, clarity, and self-compassion.

Burnout Therapy
Grief can be exhausting, especially when you are trying to keep working, caregiving, parenting, or functioning while privately feeling depleted. If loss has left you emotionally drained, disconnected, or running on empty, you may also benefit from online burnout therapy.
Depression Therapy
Grief and depression are not the same, but they can overlap. If you are feeling persistently hopeless, numb, withdrawn, unmotivated, or unlike yourself, online depression therapy may also be a helpful place to start.
Anxiety Therapy
Loss can also bring fear, uncertainty, panic, or a constant sense that something else could go wrong. If grief has heightened your worry or made it harder to feel safe in your body, you may want to explore online anxiety therapy.

Grief Education & Community Work
In addition to my clinical work with grief and loss, I have contributed to grief education and community-based programming on shock, denial, and collective grief. I partnered with moveTHRU and Reimagine: Life, Loss, & Love for a live grief discussion focused on understanding shock and denial as part of the grieving process.

My Approach to Grief and Loss Therapy
My approach to helping someone during their grief journey is steady, compassionate, and practical. I will not rush you into acceptance or ask you to turn your pain into a lesson before you are ready.
Depending on your needs, our work may draw from CBT, ACT, mindfulness, IFS-informed therapy, and trauma-informed care. That means we may look at the thoughts keeping you stuck, the emotions asking for attention, the parts of you trying to protect you, and the values that can help guide you through a changed life.
For high-achieving clients, grief can be especially disorienting. You may be used to being capable, productive, and composed. However, grief does not follow a typical pattern and doesn’t necessarily respond to effort, structure, and routine.
Sometimes the work is learning how to stop managing everything and let yourself be human.
Move Through Grief at Your Own Pace
You do not have to rush your grief, explain it perfectly, or move through it on someone else’s timeline. Therapy can give you a steady place to process what changed, make sense of what you are carrying, and begin rebuilding life around the loss without pretending it no longer matters. If you are grieving a death, relationship, identity, career, health change, or major life transition, I can help you find language for what hurts and support you as you begin to feel more grounded again.
