Grief Counseling Maryland
Finding Your Way Through Loss
You never expected life to feel this heavy. Each day feels like you’re moving through fog, watching the world carry on while yours has come to a halt. You catch yourself staring out the window, time slipping away, wondering how you’re supposed to live in a world without your loved one. People keep saying things like “they’re in a better place,” but that only makes you feel more alone.
A part of you knows you need to figure out how to live without them, but another part of you doesn’t want to. You feel guilty even thinking about moving forward. You’re tired of pretending to be okay for everyone else—your family, coworkers, community—while inside you’re breaking apart.
You used to be full of energy and curiosity, always looking for the next adventure. Now everything feels like it’s stopped. You just want to crawl into a quiet space and shut out the noise of the world. You long for relief, for something that helps you understand what’s happening inside you, and to finally feel like you can breathe again.
If this sounds familiar, grief counseling can offer the support you’ve been searching for.
Making Sense of the World Again After Loss
Danielle Hatchell, LCPC Grief Counselor in Maryland also specializing in relationship counseling, anxiety counseling, and spiritual counseling.
Grief can make you feel like the world no longer makes sense. As a therapist and minister, I support people who are learning how to live again after losing someone they deeply love. Together, we make sense of what has happened, explore the emotions that come with loss, and uncover what really matters to you as you begin to create a new normal.
You don’t have to do this alone. Our work together is a safe space to explore all aspects of your grief—from the physical exhaustion and mental fog to the emotional waves and spiritual questions that arise after loss. You’ll have room to talk about the things most people are afraid to say out loud, and to find meaning in your healing journey.
Holistic Support for Healing
Loss doesn’t just affect one part of your life—it touches everything. That’s why I approach grief counseling holistically, considering your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual wellbeing. Whether you are processing the death of a loved one, a major life change, or another kind of ending, we’ll work together to help you find steadiness again.
Using mindfulness, grief education, and insight-oriented therapy, I’ll support you in learning how to stay grounded when emotions feel overwhelming. You’ll begin to notice patterns that shape how you cope, gain useful tools for everyday life, and start to see that healing doesn’t mean forgetting. It means finding peace within the story of your loss.
Learning to Breathe Again
Clients often tell me that after working together, they “finally feel like they can breathe again, and life makes more sense after experiencing this loss.” You, too, can find your way back to a life that feels meaningful and grounded.
Through counseling, you’ll learn how to work through the emotional waves of grief, rebuild your sense of self, and move toward what brings peace and purpose. Together, we’ll support you in reconnecting with joy, rediscovering what gives your life meaning, and giving yourself permission to live again.
