And when the work of grieving is done,
The wound of loss will heal
And you will have learned
To wean your eyes
From that gap in the air
And be able to enter the hearth
In your soul where your loved one
Has awaited your return
All the time.

Grief and Loss
Your soul remembers how to heal, even
when
your
heart
forgets.
Grief hurts in ways that words can’t always explain. Whether you’ve lost a loved one, a relationship, a dream, a job or a way of life, it can feel like a piece of you is missing. Hypnotherapy gives you a calm, quiet place to meet those feelings instead of stuffing them down or pretending you're okay when you’re not. Hypnotherapy opens a space beyond ordinary consciousness, allowing unexpressed sorrow to find voice and movement. These experiences can be profoundly soothing, especially when words or logic fall short.
​
Grief can manifest in many forms—emotional, physical, and psychological—and if unresolved, can contribute to depression, insomnia, or somatic symptoms. Hypnotherapy has been clinically shown to reduce the intensity of grief-related distress by helping clients process emotions stored in the subconscious. A study by Alladin (2012) found that hypnotherapy could significantly reduce symptoms of complicated grief and improve emotional resilience.
​
In hypnosis, clients are guided into a relaxed state where they can safely revisit memories, express emotions, and begin to reframe their relationship to the loss. In a session, you might get to say what you never had a chance to say, or reconnect with the part of you that still holds love, even through the pain. Visualization techniques can help clients connect with feelings of closure or ongoing intuitive connection. Rather than suppressing grief, hypnotherapy offers tools to process it gently, allowing space for healing and eventual renewal of life energy.
​
It’s not about forgetting or “getting over” anything—it’s about finding peace, a little at a time, and learning to carry the love forward. You don’t have to do this alone. And you don’t have to rush the healing. Grief often reveals itself in layers, sometimes ancestral or collective, sometimes spiritual. Sessions allow clients to meet their grief with reverence, and even to discover unexpected gifts hidden in the loss—new purpose, deeper compassion, or soul-level initiation. The goal is not to “move on,” but to integrate the experience in a way that honors both the love and the letting go.
In this space between worlds, before we become something new, before we are ready to emerge, we are tender and vulnerable. Perhaps it is not a final destination we seek, but the ability to give ourselves permission, again and again, to be both initiate and witness in this birth.
-Kristen Roderick

The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.
