Find a support group
I do not offer a suicide bereavement support group. The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention’s directory lists in-person and online groups. Contact a group’s facilitator for meeting details and availability.

Room for your grief.
Room for you.
When someone you love dies by suicide, it can be hard to know where to turn, what to say, or how to make sense of what has happened. You deserve a place where your loss can be spoken about openly and met with care.

For survivors of suicide loss
Your relationship.
Your loss.
Your own pace.
“Suicide loss survivor” means someone grieving a person who died by suicide. You may have lost a partner, child, parent, sibling, friend, or another important person in your life.
Whether your loss is recent or happened years ago, we can begin with what you are carrying now.
How I work
A place to speak
about all of it.
Suicide bereavement is a particular focus of my practice. My psychotherapy is informed by psychoanalytic thinking, with careful attention to your relationship with the person who died, your emotional experience, and the meaning of the loss in your life.
In our work, you can bring the questions you return to, feelings that are difficult to share, and the parts of your experience that others may not understand. We can talk about guilt, anger, longing, love, or whatever feels important to you.
My intention is to help you feel less alone with your experience and understand what you need as you live with this loss. We will make room to remember the person as a whole person, beyond the circumstances of their death.

Different and the Same
Suicide loss can bring particular questions and painful feelings, alongside experiences shared with other kinds of grief. In this article, I reflect on both and on finding ways to live with loss.
Taking the next step
You don’t have to
figure it out first.
An initial conversation can help us consider what kind of support fits your needs.
Do I need to wait before seeking therapy?
You are welcome to contact me after a recent loss or about a loss from years ago. We can discuss what you are experiencing and whether my practice is a good fit.
Can we meet in person or online?
I offer in-person sessions at my Tampa office and telehealth for clients located in Florida.
What happens when I contact you?
We can talk about what brings you here, your questions about therapy and fees, and whether we might work together.
