Therapy for Breakups
Heartbreak is absolutely excruciating. Often, it hurts so much because it's not just about this particular relationship or person; it uncovers grief that has lived in you much longer, picking at a wound that was already there long before this person came along.
If you're finding it hard to function, to eat, to sleep, to get through a normal day, you're not alone, and you don't have to figure this out by yourself.
Maybe you've been going down the rabbit hole of attachment style videos, trying to make sense of it all. And while there's something helpful there, it probably isn't quite doing it. You get temporary relief but that’s not good enough. That's because understanding something in your head and actually healing it in your body and heart are two very different things. Attachment is more than a buzzword; it's at the root of how we connect, grieve, and recover, and we'll explore what it means for you, gently and without the jargon.
Together, we'll work through the grief, shame, anger, and helplessness you're carrying. We may even uncover grief that was passed down long before you, patterns and pain that were never yours to carry alone (see the Intergenerational Trauma section).
I know that heavy, hollow feeling in your gut. Therapy won't erase it overnight, but it can help you carry it differently, and help you feel a little less alone in it.
