Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
Both EMDR and insight-oriented approaches can be truly beneficial when processing loss or grief. Sometimes a client mostly needs a supportive presence and a space to talk about the loss and fully feel all the feelings involved. Other times, trauma processing via EMDR can be incredibly effective in releasing any pent up or leftover painful feelings of regret, loss, guilt, or sadness. We will work together to determine what course—and what pace—is best for you.

Grief and major transitions can feel profoundly disorienting. I offer a compassionate space to honor the full range of your emotions—the sadness, anger, confusion, and loss—allowing every 'part' of you to be seen and held. We'll work on finding meaning and committing to the values that guide you, even in the midst of pain and change. You will be supported in navigating this new terrain and finding restorative comfort through natural connection and self-compassion.

Stella Zweben Samuel, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have worked for many years with those individuals who have experienced loss. Some of my clinical work is educating clients on the grieving process and allowing for further understanding of how the client is impacted by grief and loss. My clients who experience loss feel supported and encouraged to understand the feelings and thoughts they are having. I provide a non-judgmental space for individuals who have a history of loss and grief to feel supported.

Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, LCSW
In navigating the intricate landscape of grief, my practice acknowledges the myriad forms it can take—spanning from the acute pain of recent loss to the complex sorrow stemming from childhood trauma, ancestral burdens, and unmetabolized emotions carried through generations. Grief is not a monolith; it can emerge from the loss of a loved one, the ending of significant relationships, shifts in personal identity or life stages, and even the mourning of missed opportunities or unfulfilled dreams. My approach is dedicated to guiding individuals through these diverse expressions of grief, recognizing each journey as deeply personal and inherently transformative.
Providing a safe, nurturing environment, I encourage clients to explore the full spectrum of their grief. This exploration is not limited to the losses traditionally recognized by society but extends to the more subtle, often overlooked forms of grief that can deeply influence our lives. Through a tailored blend of therapeutic techniques, I focus on actively engaging with and processing grief in all its forms, facilitating a meaningful exploration of its origins and impact.
This comprehensive process involves addressing the emotional pain, understanding its roots—whether in recent events, childhood experiences, inherited family traumas, or burdens that aren't ours to bear—and beginning the healing process. By doing so, clients are empowered to reconcile with their past, understand the breadth of their experiences, and move toward a future marked by renewal and self-discovery.
My goal is to assist each individual in navigating their unique path through grief with empathy, insight, and respect for the myriad ways it can manifest. In embracing the full complexity of grief, we honor its potential for pain and transformation, viewing it not just as an obstacle, but as a profound opportunity for growth, deeper self-awareness, and a renewed connection to the essence of our being.

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.S., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Grief doesn’t follow a timeline—and it often hides beneath the surface, especially for those who are used to staying strong for others. Whether you’ve experienced the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or a version of your life you once knew, therapy offers a space to move through the pain with support, presence, and care. You don’t have to grieve alone—or silently.

While I work with all grief and loss issues, my primary specialty is working with parents who have lost a child. When a child dies, a parent's world is shattered. While nothing can take away the pain of losing a child, I assist bereaved parents in finding ways to help make their pain more bearable.

LaTianna Williams, Therapy, Sexology, and Holistic Tantra
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CTRS, ABS
Loss & Grief: Experiencing loss can feel disorienting, painful, and deeply isolating. Whether you are grieving the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a miscarriage, a major life transition, or a version of life you thought you would have, grief can show up as sadness, numbness, anger, confusion, exhaustion, or waves of emotion that feel unpredictable and overwhelming.
As a therapist, I provide a compassionate and grounded space to help you move through grief at your own pace. Together, we make space for your emotions without rushing the process, while gently helping you understand how loss is impacting your mind, body, relationships, and sense of identity. You don’t have to carry it alone or “get over it” to move forward.
This work is about honoring what you have lost while slowly rebuilding a sense of meaning, connection, and stability. Over time, grief becomes something you learn to carry with more integration, allowing you to stay connected to what mattered while still re-engaging with life.

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.

Michelle Bourgerie
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, APCC
When grief sits in your throat, and feels like fear, it can stop you in your tracks. Sometimes a song, smell, or a photo will bring a flood of grief. When you are still going to work or have to continue keeping home and kids on schedule, grief gets stuffed down deep. You might be wondering when you'll start to feel like yourself again, when you will stop feeling distracted and forgetful. You may wonder how long you can keep stuffing the grief in order to get through the day. If you're drinking at night to cope, or not sleeping at all or too much, you need extra support. Grief is a journey that no one should travel alone. You'll be okay, I've walked with so many through their grief and loss. You don't have to know the phases of grief and how to process it, because I do, and I can help you. It's a privilege to help you navigate profound grief and to help you honor your loved one as we work together to help help the color come back into your life, and even joy.

Marge Michaelson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, ACSW, DSW
Loss and Grief are experienced with death and also many other incidents. There is a non-linear path to healing and techniques to help in the process. History shows the human condition as experiencing tragedy and finding a way to survive. Therapy is part of that way.
