Brooke Taylor
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
Grief is not just about death, it’s the ache of change, the quiet absence of what once felt steady, the loss of who we were before everything shifted. I specialize in grief counseling for those navigating both external losses such as the death of a loved one, separation, or life transitions and internal grief, the mourning of lost identity, belonging, or safety.
Grief can feel isolating, confusing, or endless, but you are not alone. Together, we’ll create space to honor your pain without rushing your process, helping you rebuild connection, meaning, and trust in yourself. My approach draws from relational trauma therapy, mindfulness, and somatic awareness to support emotional healing and reconnection with your authentic self.

Grief is not something you "get over." Whether you are grieving the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or a life that did not turn out the way you had hoped, therapy can help you make sense of your emotions and find a way to carry your loss while continuing to move forward.

John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT MACP LPCC
Loss is inevitable and timeless - grief is not. A large portion of his journey was working with Zen Hospice, and helping individuals and families deal with loss and transform their grief into something else. It is a journey best not walked alone, and the practice is walking through the middle, and learning that it will pass.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Grief is not limited to death. It can emerge through changes in health, disability, chronic illness, neurodivergent discovery, relationships, estrangement, identity shifts, community loss, life transitions, unmet hopes, or futures that no longer look the way they once did. Grief can also arise alongside relief, freedom, anger, gratitude, clarity, and other emotions that do not always fit neatly into conventional understandings of loss.
My approach honors grief as a natural response to loving, caring, hoping, becoming, and being deeply connected to what matters. Together, we create space for mourning, remembrance, meaning-making, and the often nonlinear realities of loss. Rather than rushing toward acceptance or closure, therapy supports making room for the full complexity of grief while tending to the nervous system, honoring what has changed, carrying forward what remains meaningful, and discovering what it means to continue living alongside loss.

When Loss Changes Everything
Grief isn’t just about death — it’s about all the moments when life changes in ways we didn’t choose. The end of a relationship, a shift in health, the loss of a loved one, or even a transition that brings both relief and sadness can leave us feeling disoriented and alone. Grief is not a problem to fix. It’s a natural, healthy process — but it can feel unbearable when you’re living through it. You may notice waves of emotion that come without warning, moments of guilt or anger, or times when you wonder if you’ll ever feel “normal” again.
I’ve worked in the field of grief and bereavement for over a decade, supporting people as they navigate the complex mix of emotions that come with loss. Using a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT, I’ll help you make space for your feelings while also building tools to:
Process guilt, regret, and “what ifs” that can keep you stuck
Understand and normalize the changing rhythms of grief
Reconnect with moments of peace, purpose, and meaning
Honor your loss while rediscovering your capacity for joy and connection
Grief is deeply personal, and healing doesn’t mean forgetting — it means learning to live fully while carrying your memories with love. Together, we’ll move gently between sorrow and strength, always at your pace.
I BELIEVE:
Grief is love that has nowhere to go — and it deserves compassion, not correction.
There’s no right timeline for healing. You’re allowed to take your time.
Sadness and hope can coexist; they often do.
Meaning can be rebuilt, even after profound loss.
Healing grows in spaces of safety, warmth, and shared humanity.

IEMT Trauma Therapy
Hypnotherapist, C.Ht., NLP, I.E.M.T., B.T.P, Adv-EFT., CBT Specialist
While IEMT doesn’t remove the love, it can soften the sharp edges of grief. It helps you gently separate pain from memory, so healing can begin without forgetting.
Guilt
When guilt lingers, it often loops in the background, coloring your daily decisions. IEMT helps dissolve the emotional charge so you can acknowledge the past without being weighed down by it.
Shame
Shame is one of the deepest emotional imprints and often tied to identity. IEMT allows you to revisit those memories without pain, helping you release shame and restore a sense of worth.
Remorse
IEMT gently clears the sting of regret without erasing the lesson. It allows the emotional burden to lift so that self-forgiveness and forward movement become possible.

Gabriel Lowe
Psychologist, PhD
Everyone experiences loss, and grief is the normal responses we have to those losses. There is no one right way to grieve, but going through the grieving process can be disorienting and lonely. To further complicate things, grief can be concrete (a person, place, or thing) and it can be abstract (hopes, dreams, expectations). Depending on the season of grief we are in, we may need someone to talk to, someone to help us move forward, or someone simply to be there with us.

Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Grief, if ignored, can disrupt your mood, sleep, concentration, and slow your life down to a halt. Whether your grief is from the loss of a loved one, tragic loss from a fire or crime, the end of a relationship, changes in your health or something else, therapy can help you skillfully navigate it at your own pace. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that help you avoid emotional spirals related to heartbreak and loss. You can learn to hold it all in a way that allows you to find some peace and move forward.
