Loss or Grief therapists in Firestone, Colorado CO
Lauren Jensen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
One of my favorite Marvel quotes from WandaVision captures my perspective on grief and loss: “But what is grief if not love persevering?” Exactly. Grief and loss happen all the time, and not just when we lose someone we love. Grief also happens when we lose a job, our health, our marriage falls apart, we experience a miscarriage or natural disaster or we are single and desiring to be in a partnership. Grief and loss are about adapting to change - and change is everywhere. Let me walk with you and help guide you through this journey so that you can slowly and steadily learn to incorporate the grief and loss into your life in healthy ways.

Hope Weiss
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Everyone experiences grief in their own unique way. I provide a safe environment where you can process and discuss your experiences with grief. I help normalize what you're going through so that there can be more self-acceptance and understanding. Grief is not just death, but a loss in many areas of our lives. Since the pandemic, we are all experiencing grief in one way or another. We need a place where we can be heard and a place where we can express all of our feelings.

David Redbord
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MPH, LPCC
Grief is the feeling of sadness that happens after the experience of loss.
It could be the loss of a person like a parent or a child, a pet, or even a situation like your home or workplace.
Grief is a nonlinear process. It arises in unexpected moments.
Over time, though, as we allow ourselves to feel the grief as long as we’re not pushing it down when it comes up, it will come up less and less as more time passes.
I’d be honored to support you in working with grief effectively.

Kelli Tahaney
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Ph.D.
Grief and loss is a universal human experience, one that often plays a role in depression, anxiety, and complex trauma reactions. I help clients process loss and learn to understand grief and loss as emotions that are natural, at times overwhelming, and often as a sign that we experienced love and meaning.

Denver Wellness Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Grief and loss is a normal part of the human experience, yet the suffering is intense and often lengthy. Grief work can be for the loss of a loved one, pet, job, identity, social group, dream/goal, ability, or construct. In therapy, we discuss the difference between "normal grief" (though grief looks different for different people) and "complicated grief" where any number of factors can act as a hinderance to the grieving process. Complicated grief can look like any of the following: having a complicated relationship with the deceased (unsaid words, unsettled grievances), death that is unexpected or violent, underlying attachment wounds, lack of support/understanding from your others, or any traumatic aspect of the experience surrounding the loss. At Denver Wellness Counseling, we approach grief work with the goal of healthy grief, which is a two pronged (somewhat conflicting) goal of moving on in life while also remaining connected to the deceased in a way that feels right. We often use EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) to address the complicating or traumatic factors that are hindering the grief process. Grief work always includes a component of future work, guiding the client to successfully imagine a future where they can maintain some connection to the loss, while also living what they consider a good life.
