My approach to couples support after pregnancy and infant loss is grief-sensitive, relational, and deeply attuned. Loss can profoundly disrupt not only your inner worlds, but the space between you, how you communicate, cope, connect, and make sense of one another. When both partners are grieving and operating with limited capacity, even deeply loving relationships can feel strained, distant, or stuck.

This work offers a compassionate space to honor the loss you carry together and individually, while tending to the ways grief shows up in your relationship. We slow things down and create room for what is often left unsaid, misunderstandings, different grieving styles, protective patterns, and the parts of each of you that emerge when you are on the brink.

Together, we move at a pace that respects your nervous systems and the realities of acute and ongoing grief. Using an attachment- and nervous system–informed, parts-based lens, we focus on understanding patterns rather than blaming people. We help each partner feel heard, seen, and understood, while gently identifying the relational dynamics that arise under stress, loss, and exhaustion.

This work supports couples in:

• Navigating pregnancy and infant loss together, including miscarriage, stillbirth, infant death, infertility-related loss, and terminations for medical reasons

• Understanding and honoring different grieving styles without disconnection or escalation

• Making space for all parts—protective, grieving, angry, numb, hopeful, without asking anyone to suppress or “fix” them

• Shifting relational patterns that emerge in crisis, including withdrawal, conflict, caretaking, or silence

• Rebuilding trust, safety, and connection after loss

• Parenting and pregnancy after loss while tending to fear, grief, and differing needs

• Integrating loss into your shared life in a way that supports both partners and the relationship

The goal is not to eliminate grief or force resolution, but to help you stay in relationship with yourselves and each other, creating more choice, understanding, and connection in the midst of something profoundly life-altering.
