Support for Miscarriage and Stillbirth
Holding space for a love that lasts forever.
Pregnancy Loss Support for Healing
Pregnancy loss—whether through miscarriage, stillbirth, TFMR, or a loss that unfolded in complicated circumstances often creates a kind of silent grief, even as life around you keeps moving. Silver Compass Therapy offers specialized, grief‑informed support for women and couples navigating the emotional, relational, and identity‑level impact of losing a pregnancy. Our work honors the depth of what you’ve been through while holding space for the possibility of growth, connection, and healing.
Therapy provides a compassionate, non‑pressured place to explore the layers of pregnancy loss: the shock, sadness, anger, guilt, numbness, and the moments of confusion that can surface long after the event. We offer a space where your experience is fully seen, your emotions are validated, and your healing can unfold at a pace that feels right for you.
Our approach blends evidence‑based treatment for pregnancy loss, miscarriage, and stillbirth with grief‑literate care. This includes cognitive‑behavioral strategies for intrusive thoughts, trauma‑responsive approaches for medical or birth‑related trauma, and identity‑focused work for the ways loss reshapes your sense of self. We understand how grief touches the spirit, body, and the future you imagined.

Healing After Pregnancy Loss
Space to understand what the loss means to you
Pregnancy loss affects each person differently. Counseling offers a safe, compassionate place to explore the emotions that surface — sadness, anger, numbness, confusion, or anything in between. We’ll provide support for miscarriage grief and help you make sense of your experience without pressure to “move on” before you’re ready.
A grounded path forward, shaped at your pace
Healing after pregnancy loss is not linear. Therapy offers tools for coping with triggers, navigating medical follow‑up, and managing the emotional impact of future pregnancies or decisions. Sessions provide steadiness as you move forward in a way that honors both your grief and your growth.
Learning to live with grief while still making room for joy
Grief doesn’t disappear, but it can soften. Therapy helps you understand how to carry your loss while still noticing moments of joy, connection, and hope. You can rebuild trust in life by allowing sorrow and joy to coexist without guilt or confusion.
Support for the layers of grief that often go unseen
Loss can touch identity, relationships, hopes for the future, and your sense of safety in your own body. We will help you navigate these deeper layers with care, giving voice to the parts of grief that are often carried quietly or misunderstood by others.
Navigating Loss in Future Pregnancies and Postpartum
Grief after miscarriage or reproductive loss often echoes into other seasons of life, including pregnancy and postpartum. If you’re navigating emotions that connect across these experiences, you can explore support for pregnancy wellbeing or postpartum adjustment to help you feel more grounded as you move forward.
FAQ

-
Your first session is a space to talk through what you’ve been experiencing and to get a feel for whether working with Silver Compass feels like the right match. You can expect to answer personal questions and open up about things you may not have shared before.

-
Silver Compass Therapy does not accept insurance, and this choice is intentional.
Working outside of insurance allows for greater privacy and control over your care. When insurance is involved, companies—and sometimes employers through benefits plans—can access diagnostic information, treatment dates, and other details about your mental health. By remaining out‑of‑network, your records stay between you and your therapist, not filtered through a third party.
-
All services are online through a HIPPA compliant telehealth platform. At this time we are only servicing individuals living in Massachusetts.
