Grief and Loss Support in Brookline & the Boston Area
Support for Navigating Loss, Change, and Emotional Healing
Grief is sometimes, but not always about death. Feelings of grief can follow the end of a relationship, a major life change, a lost sense of identity. These experiences can leave you feeling empty, stuck, or off-balance. We help you make sense of your emotions and find your way forward – all at your own pace.
Who Can Benefit From Grief and Loss Support?
Grief shows up differently for everyone. Over time, your grief may shift or change in intensity. Healing from grief is not always linear.
You may be struggling with grief if:
You are feeling emotional after a loss that continues to impact your daily life
You feel ungrounded or uncertain after a relationship ending, identity shift, or life transition.
You need a supportive space to process grief and understand how to move forward in a meaningful way
You feel overwhelmed by sadness, anger, guilt, or emotional numbness after a major life change.
How Can Integrative Psych Help?
Therapy at Integrative Psychological Services offers a space to explore grief at your own pace. We help you make sense of the emotions, memories, and changes that often accompany loss.
Making Space for Grief
Grief can be hard to talk about. We offer a space where your experience can be expressed openly, without pressure or judgment.
Understanding the Many Layers of Loss
Grief isn't always a singular emotion. It can show up as sadness, anger, relief, or even joy. We help you make sense any confusion you may be experiencing.
Processing Unfinished Emotions
Sometimes grief leaves you feeling unresolved. We help you to find closure and peace with what you’ve lost.
Navigating Life Changes
Big transitions, like the end of a relationship, a career shift, or a move bring their own kind of grief. We help you adjust and find stability in the middle of change.
Finding Meaning After Loss
We help you reconnect with what matters, rediscover yourself, and start building a meaningful life on the other side.
Reconnecting with Yourself
Loss can pull you away from your own values, needs, and sense of self. We help you find your way back.

Frequently Asked Questions
You've Got Questions, We've Got Answers.
What types of grief can therapy at Integrative Psych help with?
Grief can emerge from different kinds of loss and change. While death is a common source of grief, people also experience grief after the end of a relationship, changes in health, major life transitions, or shifts in identity and life direction.
Therapy at Integrative Psych provides a space to explore how loss – big or small. Therapists at our practice work to support you to process and make sense of change.
How long does therapy for grief take?
Grief is deeply personal, and there is no fixed timeline for processing it. Some people seek support during particularly intense periods of grief, while others benefit from an ongoing therapeutic relationship to explore how grief has shaped their lives.
Therapy at Integrative Psychological Services moves at a pace that respects where you are in your grief process.
What if I’m not sure how to talk about what I’m feeling?
Many people struggle to find the right words to describe their experience with grief. Sometimes grief shows up as physical heaviness, emotional numbness, unexpected waves of sadness, or memories that feel difficult to revisit.
You don’t need to have a clear or concise explanation for what you are feeling. Therapy at Integrative Psych creates space to gently explore those emotions and experiences together, even if they feel confusing or difficult to describe.
How do I know if therapy is the right fit for me?
Therapists here help you better understand when grief begins to feel isolating or overwhelming, or when the impact of loss continues to surface in unexpected ways. Therapy can help you better understand your emotional responses, navigate changes in your life, and find ways to carry grief while still moving forward.
A consultation can help you explore whether this type of support feels like the right next step for you.
