- Relationships might be strained as others expect you to “move on”
- Your sense of identity and future plans have been disrupted by the loss

- You question whether your grief response is “normal” or if something is wrong
- The contrast between your internal experience and external expectations creates additional stress

How we can help you.
At Evergreen Counseling, we understand that grief is a natural, necessary response to significant loss—whether that loss involves a death, the end of a relationship, health changes, or other major life transitions. Our trauma-informed approach recognizes that grief is highly individual, influenced by your relationship with what's been lost, your personal history, cultural background, and available support systems.
What you’re longing for is possible.
By pursuing therapy for grief and loss at Evergreen Counseling, you can imagine:
Before Therapy
After Therapy
Grief feels overwhelming, unpredictable, and potentially endless.
You develop capacity to hold grief alongside other emotions and experiences.
You question whether your grief response is normal or appropriate.
You understand your unique grief pattern and honor your individual process.
Memories or reminders trigger overwhelming emotional reactions.
You can access memories and think about your loss with sadness but not overwhelming distress.
You feel pressure to "move on" or "get over" your loss.
You recognize grief as a continuing relationship with what's been lost, not a finite process.
The future seems empty or meaningless without what's been lost.
You begin to reconstruct meaning and purpose while honoring your loss.
