Support for Men Navigating Grief Through Death or Divorce

Because men grieve too — even if the world forgets to ask

You’ve been told to “stay strong.”

You’ve heard:
“How’s your wife holding up?”
“Think about the children.”
“You’ll bounce back.”


But no one asks how you are really doing.

As a man, you may be used to pushing down pain, solving problems, and carrying the weight of others. But grief doesn’t follow rules — and it doesn’t care about gender.

Whether you’re grieving the death of someone you love or mourning the loss of your marriage, the emotional toll can be heavy, isolating, and hard to express. This space is just for you.

Grieving a Bereavement

The death of a loved one can turn your world upside down. Whether it's a partner, parent, child, sibling, or close friend, the ache can be deep — even if you’re not showing it on the surface. You may be dealing with:

  • Feeling pressure to hold everything together for others

  • Not knowing who to talk to or how to open up

  • Guilt, regret, or unspoken words

  • A deep sense of loneliness, even when surrounded by people

Grieving a Divorce

Divorce is its own kind of death — the loss of your marriage, your role as a husband, and the life you thought you were building. For many men, this comes with:

  • Disconnection from children or changes in fatherhood

  • Financial pressure and uncertainty

  • Shame, anger, confusion, or numbness

  • Feeling overlooked, blamed, or unsupported

Even if you initiated the divorce, it doesn’t mean you aren’t grieving. Ending a relationship — especially one where you gave so much of yourself — leaves a mark.

You Don’t Have to Go Through This Alone

Grief isn’t something to "get over" — it’s something to be understood, moved through, and integrated. I work with men to:

  • Make sense of the complex emotions of grief and loss

  • Talk openly (or not — this is your space)

  • Find strength without shutting down

  • Navigate practical matters (divorce paperwork, family changes, etc.)

  • Rebuild a sense of identity and purpose

This isn’t therapy — it’s real, human support from someone who gets it.

Your Grief Is Valid

Whether you’re holding it all in, breaking down quietly, or unsure what to feel — you are not alone. Grief looks different for everyone, but you deserve support that meets you where you are.

Let’s talk — no pressure, no expectations. Just a safe place to breathe, speak, and be heard.
