Grief is a universal, normal, and natural response to loss of any kind, and all people experience it at some point over the course of a lifetime—often many times.

There are more than 40 different life events that can lead to grief—not only death, but any loss or change that disrupts your sense of stability, connection, or identity.

Grief myths are common but false ideas about how people are expected to grieve—such as believing there is a “right” way, a set timeline, or a point at which grief should end. In reality, grief looks different for everyone.

Grief never truly goes away, and when it’s unaddressed or pushed aside, it doesn’t fade—it lingers, accumulates, and often intensifies, reminding us that healing requires attention, not time alone.

You may have heard of the “stages of grief,” often described as denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. While this framework can sometimes help name common grief responses, grief itself is fluid and nonlinear, and it looks different for everyone. People may move in and out of these experiences, revisit them over time, or never experience some of them at all.

Working with us, you can expect structure when you want it, freedom when you need it, support when you’re overwhelmed, and clarity when nothing makes sense.
