About

One belief I would happily retire is that grief heals on its own, that if you simply wait long enough the ache dissolves by itself. Time does matter, but time alone is not treatment. What actually helps is having somewhere honest to bring the loss while the time passes. So we do not sit around waiting for you to feel better. We work. We tell the story of the person who died as many times as it needs telling. We examine the guilt, the what-ifs, the strange resentments that ambush you at three in the morning. We notice which coping habits are helping and which are quietly making things worse. It is active, thoughtful work, and it moves. My earliest work was in crisis settings, where composure under real pressure becomes second nature, and I have carried that calm into every hour since. Very little you could say would unsettle me. If you have been quietly hoping someone could hold the full weight of this with you, that someone is here. Write when you are ready.
