We Help Grieving People Who’ve Lost Someone They Love.
You’re aching inside each morning when you wake up and feel the emptiness again as you remember your person is gone.
We all grieve in our own ways and in our own time. But, you’re wondering if it’s ever going to stop hurting this badly.
Maybe you thought you were prepared to lose this person. Or, maybe the loss was sudden.
All you know is that the pain is overwhelming. And the thought of them no longer being there to turn to sometimes makes you feel like you can’t go on.
You may have feelings of regret, anger, guilt, depression, fear, or hopelessness.
You might feel like you need to be brave and strong for those around you.
It may feel like there’s no one to turn to for support.
The loss of a person we love can be one of the most painful experiences we go through as human beings.
You might feel overwhelmed and stuck as everything reminds you of this person. And, all the things you wish you could say.
You are not alone.
It’s possible to move through this pain to a place of peace. For now, it’s okay to let yourself grieve.
At Love Heal Grow, your grief counselor is there every step of the way. In grief counseling, they will walk with you through your memories, feelings, and thoughts together as you move towards peace and closure for your loss.
Though the feeling of loss may always be there. But, it will become more bearable. And, you will learn to move through your grief in grief counseling.
We grieve because we love.

If you are considering grief counseling, you may be …
-Unsure where to start or what to expect.
-Worried you may just cry the entire time and that it will hurt too bad. Or, that grief counseling won’t be helpful. Others have encouraged you to start grief counseling, but you just aren’t sure.
–Feeling disconnected from others. You cannot imagine not having your loss be the central, all-consuming part of your life.
–Replaying memories or moments in your minds. It helps you feel connected to your loved one. And, also can bring on overwhelming sadness, guilt, longing, or even anger.
-Feeling like little moments are hard. (“This is when we would have been saying goodnight”, “this is when he would have given me a hug”). And the big ones are hard, too (“this is when they would have walked me down the aisle”, “they would have been so happy this day”).
Our grief counselors can help you process your grief by:
-Learning about your loved one and everything that made them special.
-Helping you find peace around the way things happened, whatever that looks like for you.
-Supporting you in finding ways to honor the memory of your loved one so that you can feel connected to them always.
-Helping you learn to find kindness and compassion for yourself in this process.
-Sometimes we’ll ask you questions. Sometimes you will just share whatever is on your mind. What we know is that speaking the thoughts and feelings that are building inside helps us stay connected to our loved ones. And, allows us to care for ourselves.
Through the process of grief counseling, you may:
-Feel more connected to your joyful memories of your loved one and less overwhelmed by suffering that may have filled the last hours, days, or years of their life.
-Find a way to get through your day with more moments of peace and joy.
-Feel secure in your knowledge that you will always be connected to your person. And while guilt is normal, it is okay to hold them in your heart as you reconnect with your life and others.
-Find yourself able to share freely about your person to others without becoming frozen in a tearful place.
