Welcome to Healing After a Loss
Losing a pregnancy can be one of the most painful experiences anyone can endure. Whether it's a miscarriage, stillbirth, or the loss of an early pregnancy, the grief and emotional challenges can feel overwhelming. At time, it may seem like no one truly understands the depth of your sorrow. But you don't have to go through this alone.
I offer specialized counseling services for individuals and couples navigating the emotional aftermath of pregnancy loss. With a person-centered approach, my goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and empathetic space for you to express your grief, find healing, and rediscover hope.
What is Person-Centered Therapy?
Person-centered therapy, developed by Carl Rogers, emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and active listening. It is a non-directive, supportive approach that focuses on your unique experiences and feelings. In this environment, you will not be judged, and you will be able to explore your emotions freely, without the pressure to conform to expectations.
By working collaboratively, we will create a therapeutic relationship that respects your autonomy and supports your emotional journey. My role as your counselor is to walk alongside you as you process your grief, identify your feelings, and help you find meaning and healing in a way that feels authentic to you.
How We Can Work Togehter
1. Processing Grief: Pregnancy loss often brings a complex mix of emotions -- grief, anger guilt, confusion, and fear. Together, we will create a space where you can explore and express these feelings in a way that is meaningful to you, at your own pace.
2. Navigating Relationships: The loss of a pregnancy affects not only you but also your partner, family, and friends. We can explore how the loss has impacted your relationships and work on communication, strengthening connection, and creating mutual understanding during this difficult time.
3. Addressing Trauma: Some individuals experience pregnancy loss as a traumatic event. If this applies to you, we can work together to gently process any trauma, using therapeutic techniques to help you move toward healing without rushing the process.
4. Finding Hope and Moving Forward: Healing after pregnancy loss is not about "getting over it" -- it's about honoring your grief, taking steps toward recovery, and finding new ways to live with the memory of your loss. We an explore the possibilities for growth, self-compassion, and resilience in your journey.
5. Supporting Reproductive Health Choices: If you are contemplating further pregnancies or other reproductive health decisions, I can offer a safe space to explore your thoughts, concerns, and feelings about those choices without judgment.
