Grief

Virtual therapy anywhere in California.

“The loss doesn't get easier. You just get better at dealing with it."

– Zoë Ogulnick, Ph.D., LMFT

Grief is messy AF.

One day you’re fine, the next you’re sobbing in the Target aisle because they just put the holiday decor out and holidays remind you of them.

Friends stop asking about your person, and you wonder if everyone secretly thinks you should be “over it” by now.

Some days you want to talk about them nonstop, other days you can barely breathe.

Imagine this instead …

You remember them with love and stories, not just pain.

You stop trying to “move on” and instead learn how to move forward. 

You realize laughing or enjoying life again isn’t betrayal — it’s actually a way of honoring them.

Grief doesn’t vanish, but it becomes something you can carry without it crushing you.

Why work with me?

I get it — I lost my mom, and it broke me open.

Before, I could theorize grief as a therapist. After, I live it. I know the guilt, the fear of forgetting, the waves that knock you flat out of nowhere.

I won’t rush you or push some bullsh*t timeline.

Therapy with me is about creating space to grieve honestly, keep your person alive in memory, and keep yourself alive in the process too.

Who this type of therapy is for:

→ The person holding it together in public but falling apart in the car.

→ The one keeping their loved one’s number in their phone, just in case.

→ The one faking “I’m fine” so no one asks questions.

→ The parent crying in the shower so their kids don’t see.

→ The partner keeping grief shoved down because “other people have it worse.”

→ Anyone sick of grief being treated like something you should “get over already.”
