The loss that changed the shape of everything.
Grief is not a problem to be solved. It is a love with nowhere to go. MTP™ helps find where it can go.
Grief is not an illness. It is the appropriate response to losing something or someone that mattered. What brings people to clinical work is not grief itself but grief that has become stuck — that has no route through, no container sufficient to hold it, or that is complicated by circumstances that made the loss other than simple.
The loss that has reorganised your entire sense of who you are
Grief that others think should be over by now
The physical symptoms — exhaustion, illness, pain — that arrived with the loss
Inability to imagine a future that makes sense without what was lost
Guilt, anger, or relief that complicates the grief
Anticipatory grief — the loss that has not happened yet
MTP™ for grief is not about resolution. It is about transformation — the process by which grief moves from acute wounding to integrated loss. Meditation provides the spaciousness to be with what cannot be fixed. Trance accesses the pre-verbal relational material — the attachment — that grief is the rupture of. Psychotherapy creates the container and the witness. Together, they support the movement from grief as wound to grief as carried love.
Peer-reviewed evidence supporting MTP-aligned interventions for Grief & Loss.
"Mindfulness-based interventions showed significant reductions in grief symptoms and improvements in adjustment to loss in bereaved individuals across controlled studies."
Thieleman & Cacciatore, Social Work in Mental Health"Hypnotherapy for grief and complicated bereavement showed significant improvements in grief symptom severity, depression, and quality of life in case series and controlled observations."

Good fit
Recent bereavement — loss of a person, relationship, identity, or future
Complicated grief — grief complicated by guilt, ambivalence, or difficult circumstances
Anticipatory grief — the loss that is coming
Grief that has become chronic or that others say should be finished
Disenfranchised grief — loss that others do not recognise as legitimate
Not the right fit
Acute suicidal grief requiring immediate psychiatric support
Is there a right timeline for grief? +
No. The social narratives about how long grief "should" take are not clinically supported. Grief has its own pace. What matters is whether there is movement — whether the grief is transforming or locked.
Do I have to talk about the person or thing I lost? +
Not if you do not want to. The work occurs at the level of the attachment and the internal response — the talking is in service of the processing, not required as its form.
Love does not end when the person does. Let's find where it goes next.
Every engagement begins with a conversation. No commitment. No pressure. Just an honest exchange to understand whether this is right for you.
