Therapy for Life’s Transitions
Including Grief, Loss, Terminal Diagnoses, & Chronic Illness
Grief, Loss and Life-Changing Diagnoses can Alter the Landscape of Your World
When someone you love dies, when illness reshapes your daily life, or when the future becomes uncertain, it’s common to feel unmoored. These experiences touch every part of life—your body, your relationships, your identity, your sense of what’s possible.
Therapy at Anchor and Arbor PLLC offers a steady place to land in the midst of all of this. It’s a space where your grief doesn’t need to be rushed, where your fear and tenderness can be spoken aloud, and where the complexity of your experience is honored.
Together, we explore:
The emotional and physical weight of grief and illness
The shifting roles, relationships, and identities that accompany major change
The stories your body carries—pain, fatigue, trauma, resilience
The tension between what has been lost and what still matters
Ways to live meaningfully alongside uncertainty
This work is not about “fixing” grief or forcing acceptance. It’s about creating room for what you’re carrying, finding moments of ease amid the heaviness, and reconnecting with the parts of yourself that illness or loss may have made harder to reach.
You don’t have to navigate this alone. Therapy can help you feel more anchored, supported, and resourced as you move through what’s unfolding.
Clients that will benefit most from working with me include those who have experienced one or more of the following:
- the death of a loved one
- a loss of another kind
- a life limiting diagnosis
- a chronic illness including cancer
- caregiving for a loved one
An ideal client is seeking to process their feelings and experiences related to the above needs. All of these big transitions come with some heavy, complicated emotions and can often leave you feeling overwhelmed and unsure of where to go from here. I named my therapy practice Anchor and Arbor Therapy PLLC because that's what I want to be for my clients: an Anchor amidst the waves of emotion and an Arbor of support for moving through the journey.
