Online Grief Counseling for Adults

Serving Texas, Florida, and 41 Other States via PSYPACT

Support for adults who are so damn tired of carrying their loss quietly but feeling it everywhere.

Let’s be honest

Your grief deserves more space than the world has given it.

I provide online grief counseling for adults navigating loss that is ongoing, complicated, or quietly overwhelming.

Whether you’re grieving a:

• Person you loved
• Pet who was family
• Relationship that ended
• Role or identity you outgrew
• Dream or future you imagined
• Version of yourself you’ll never return to

Grief doesn’t fade just because time passes.
It reshapes how you think, move, connect, and see yourself.

You’ve been surviving in a world that expects you to “bounce back” faster than your heart can handle.
So you show up. You function. You say you’re “okay enough.”

But inside?
You’re drowning in a grief no one else seems to notice anymore.

When you are ready to stop carrying this alone, schedule your free consultation now

Why I Truly Understand Grief

I share this not to compare losses, but to let you know I don’t approach grief from the outside.

I understand grief both professionally and personally.

Losing my father at 22, my mother at 29, and my last living grandparent during COVID shaped me in ways I’m still discovering.

I know the ache of:

  • Hitting milestones without them

  • Navigating holidays that feel emptier

  • Answering questions that land like punch

  • Carrying the weight of what will never happen

Because I’ve lived it, I approach grief counseling with deep compassion and zero pressure. This is not a space where grief needs to be tidy, linear, or explained.

In therapy with me, you get a space where your:

• Emotions make sense
• Overwhelm has room
• Numbness isn’t judged
• Anger is allowed
• Stories, memories, and contradictions are welcome

Together, we honor what and who you’ve lost while helping you live inside this version of life you never asked for, but are navigating anyway.

What Grief Counseling With Me Feels Like

Colorful puzzle pieces forming a heart shape with a hand placing the final piece, symbolizing healing and making sense of grief and loss.

Clients often tell me:
“You remember my people’s names.”
“I finally feel seen.”
“You don’t make me feel like I need to be over it.”


This is a space where your grief can breathe.

I’m not here to rush you or treat your grief like it’s a problem to fix.
I sit beside you in the places others avoid.

Together, we will work to: 

  • Reduce guilt, self-judgment, and internal pressure

  • Learn to laugh, experience joy, and actually have “good days” again without guilt

  • Support you through anniversaries, holidays, and milestones

  • Identify patterns that keep grief stuck

  • Stop apologizing for still hurting

  • Make sense of emotional waves and ambushes

  • Navigate + honor anniversaries, milestones and holidays

  • Carry grief differently without feeling swallowed by it

Grief is  like a stone you carry in your pocket.

You always notice it. You feel it. You know it’s there. But as time goes on, it just gets lighter to carry. You didn’t move on. You didn’t have to “get over it.” You didn’t forget about it. The stone didn’t get smaller, it didn’t disappear. It stayed the same. You just grew stronger and as you became more resilient the stone felt lighter and didn’t weigh on you in the same way.

Frequently Asked Questions About Online Grief Therapy

  • If your loss still feels loud inside you, even if the world has moved on that’s enough.

    If you’re functioning but feel heavy.
    If milestones sting more than you expected.
    If you feel guilty for having good days.
    If you’re exhausted from pretending you’re okay.

    I work best with adults who are emotionally stable but quietly overwhelmed; people who want space to process, integrate, and carry their grief differently. You do not need to be falling apart to deserve support.

  • Grief isn’t limited to death.

    I work with adults grieving:

    • The death of a parent, partner, sibling, friend, or child

    • The loss of a pet who was family

    • Divorce or relationship endings

    • Estrangement

    • Miscarriage or fertility loss

    • A role, identity, or career shift

    • A version of yourself you won’t return to

    • A future you imagined but didn’t get

    You don’t need a “big enough” loss to qualify. If something mattered deeply to you and it’s gone, your grief is valid here.

  • No.

    Some clients reach out weeks after a loss.
    Some reach out years later when the quiet ache hasn’t softened the way they hoped.

    Grief doesn’t operate on a socially acceptable timeline. If it still feels unresolved, stuck, or heavy, that’s reason enough.

  • This practice does not provide:

    • Crisis or emergency services

    • Care for active suicidal intent

    • Court-ordered treatment

    • Intensive or higher-level care

    • Treatment for unmanaged substance dependence

    • Stabilization for acute psychiatric conditions requiring immediate intervention

    If you are in an immediate crisis, please seek emergency support. If you’re unsure whether your needs fall within this scope, we can discuss that during a consultation and determine the most ethical next step together.

  • Sessions are 50 minutes via secure video. I provide online therapy to adults physically located in Texas, Florida, and PSYPACT-participating states where I’m authorized to practice.

    Our work may include:

    • Processing memories and unfinished conversations

    • Reducing guilt and self-blame

    • Preparing for anniversaries, holidays, and milestones

    • Understanding emotional “ambushes”

    • Identifying patterns that keep grief stuck

    • Rebuilding identity after loss

    This is not about “moving on.”
    It’s about learning how to carry your grief without it carrying you.

  • Grief is not something we eliminate.

    It is something we learn to hold differently.

    The goal of therapy is not to erase your love, your memories, or your attachment. It is to reduce the intensity of the internal overwhelm, soften self-judgment, and help you experience moments of joy without guilt.

    The loss stays meaningful. The weight becomes more manageable.

  • I am a private-pay practice.

    Payment is due at the time of service. If you have out-of-network benefits, I can provide a superbill for possible reimbursement.

    Many clients choose private pay for increased privacy, flexibility, and the ability to work without insurance-driven diagnostic limitations. We can discuss whether this feels like a sustainable investment during your consultation.

  • There is no fixed timeline.

    Some clients benefit from short-term support during acute waves of grief. Others choose longer-term work as they rebuild identity, relationships, and meaning after loss.

    We move at a pace that feels steady and respectful of your nervous system. There is no pressure to “be done” by a certain date.

You, courageous human, are in the right place!

Let’s make today the day your grief becomes something you carry, rather than something that carries you.

Before you reach out, here’s a quick note about scope and safety: Online counseling is not appropriate for all concerns. This practice does not provide crisis or emergency services, care for active suicidality, court-ordered treatment, or higher-level/intensive services.

If you are in crisis or experiencing suicidal thoughts, please seek immediate help by calling 911, going to your nearest emergency room, calling the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255, or texting HOME to 74741 to connect with a Crisis Counselor.
