Grief Therapy

Rachel Hopkins MS APC CRC

Rachel is a grief and loss specialist who works with clients who have gone through the death of a loved one, difficult life transitions, and chronic illnesses.

The last few years have been a source of immense loss. If you had a vision of what your life would look like and who would be in your life today that is no longer here, you’re not alone.

How do I know if grief work is right for me?

If you’re used to telling yourself “I should be over this by now” or “no one wants to hear about how I’m still in so much pain,” chances are you’ve been fighting your own worst enemy for a long time: yourself.

Trying to find meaning and purpose in your life can be a long and dark road, but it doesn’t have to be. In your therapy sessions, Rachel guides you through the depths of grief in a way that gives you the strength and tools to start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Losing what’s important to us doesn’t mean the end of our life, but it is the end of what we currently know.

At first, it can be really difficult to visualize a life ahead that actually makes you happy and is worth working towards. With the right support, you’d be surprised how quickly things start to feel hopeful. You can start dreaming again and making big decisions, like moving across the country, taking that new job, or starting a new relationship.

Common causes for grief:

  • Loss of a job

  • Loss of identity (due to chronic illness, loss of a parent, partner, or child, etc.)

  • Loss of a beloved pet

  • Loss of a home (due to natural disaster, a forced move, etc.)

  • Loss of relationships (divorce, death, or major differences)

  • Loss of religious faith (due to recent challenge of beliefs, deconstructionism, etc.)

  • Loss of political trust (due to recent legislation, upcoming elections, etc.)

Your life is yours, and Rachel’s here to help you see that and make it happen. She works with folks who know there has to be more to life than what’s currently in front of you, but you just feel too paralyzed to make it happen. Together, you can find out what’s been holding you back and navigate the obstacles that are blocking you from living the life you know you’re meant for.
