Grief Therapy In Denver, CO
Understanding grief Therapy at Somatic Therapy Partners
Are you struggling with the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or a significant life change? Does the pain of your grief feel overwhelming and never-ending? Perhaps you’re finding it hard to cope with day-to-day life, or maybe you’re feeling disconnected from the world around you.

From Our Clients
“”I sought out therapy at Somatic Therapy Partners because I knew that the depression and anxiety I was dealing with was too much for me to face on my own. “I sought out therapy at Somatic Therapy Partners because I knew that the depression and anxiety I was dealing with was too much for me to face on my own. I was so overwhelmed in my life that I felt quite helpless; I had frequent panic attacks, larger scale depressive episodes, and I was stuck in past traumas. I found myself really struggling with substances, negative self-talk, and self-harm.”
My experience with Coregulating Touch work began just a year ago. It has given me a way to live in my body that I didn’t know was possible.”
Frequently Asked Questions
It’s normal to feel nervous about discussing your grief in therapy, especially if you’ve been trying to suppress your emotions. You may be worried that if you allow yourself to be vulnerable, your grief will become so all-encompassing that you’ll struggle just to function. We will never pressure you to open up about every aspect of your grief all at once. Instead, we’ll work on developing your emotional regulation skills so that you can gradually share your feelings when you’re ready.
When you see headlines about tragic events occurring around the world, it’s easy to diminish your own struggles in comparison. However, your grief is completely valid, and trying to suppress or dismiss these feelings will not help you heal. Your grief deserves your time and attention, and we will provide you with a space where you can express yourself freely. In the end, acknowledging your grief can actually deepen your compassion for others.
