Dr. Jennifer Baumgardner
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Sometimes the grief of a loss is overwhelming. Grief is seen as a normal response to loss. Coaching and teaching are used to help the grieving person learn how to cope with the loss. Therapy also helps the grieving person to come to grips with changes in life that are part of the loss. There may always be sadness at the loss but there can be resolution.

Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
There is a deeper understanding of the value of life, when humans have had the bitter of loss. As a counselor I have assisted with thousands of such situations. However as a child and teen, I saw it as my calling to help the adults in my life manage grief. Such pain and challenge were my first therapy interventions. I was deeply shocked to find that my four years of graduate counseling training had absolutely zero information about grief and loss. Now as a seasoned clinician, understanding there is a marked difference between grief and depression, I feel it is a special privilege to be able to help people through grief.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
Grief is so different for everyone. There is no "right" way to grieve. I'll hold space for you to process your loss and validate what YOU are feeling and going through. When the time comes to think about moving forward, I can help you explore what makes sense to you. I won't judge your thoughts, or work to make you feel better by pushing you to speed grief along. No, I'll respect your journey and provide you the support you need.

Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Grief is a profoundly heavy, non-linear journey that can reshape your entire world. Whether you are mourning the death of a loved one, navigating the invisible ache of pregnancy loss, or processing the ambiguous grief of a chronic illness diagnosis, Anne provides a warm, open, and deeply honoring space for you to carry your pain. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Certified Grief Informed Professional, she partners with individuals to safely explore their loss without pressure to "just get over it" or move on before they are ready.
Anne’s integrative approach is uniquely gentle and effective for bereavement care. Because intense grief often defies words, she blends traditional psychotherapy with creative art therapy techniques and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). These somatic and creative tools offer a safe outlet to externalize complex emotions—like anger, guilt, and profound sadness—while helping to calm a traumatized nervous system. Anne is dedicated to helping you honor your loss, build sustainable coping strategies for the triggers of daily life, and gently find a way forward at your own pace.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Grief doesn't follow a timeline, no matter what people expect from you. It comes in waves. Some days you're functioning and some days it hits you in the grocery store and you can't explain why. The world keeps moving and you're supposed to move with it, but part of you is still back there, with them, with what you lost. We don't try to rush grief or fix it. We sit with you in it. We help you find ways to carry the loss without being crushed by it, to honor what mattered while slowly rebuilding a life that has room for joy again. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Grief and loss look different on everyone. Grief can happen when someone dies but it can also happen after a breakup, separation, friendship loss, job change/loss, injury, illness, a move, etc. The intensity and presentation of grief symptoms are different for everyone. Our culture and traditions can also inform our grief. Let's talk about it together.

Paulina Birgiolaite
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW, CMNCS
Grief is deeply personal and doesn’t follow a set timeline. Whether you’ve lost a loved one, a pet, a relationship, or a version of your life, the pain can feel overwhelming and isolating. Therapy offers a supportive space to process your grief, honor your experience, and begin to carry it in a way that feels more manageable.

Dr. Hina Siddiqui; Insights Psychology
Psychologist, PsyD, ABPP, LP
Grief can take many forms and may arise from the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, health changes, infertility, or other significant life transitions. I work with individuals who are navigating loss and feeling overwhelmed, emotionally disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. Therapy provides a supportive space to process complex emotions at your own pace while honoring the meaning of what has been lost.
My approach to grief counseling is compassionate, individualized, and grounded in evidence-based care. Together, we focus on helping you understand your grief response, reduce feelings of isolation, and develop coping strategies that support healing and adjustment. The goal is not to “move on,” but to integrate loss in a way that allows you to reconnect with life, restore a sense of stability, and move forward with greater resilience and self-compassion.

Grief can envelop you in a shadow, making the world seem dim and distant as you navigate the aftermath of loss. The journey through sorrow is deeply personal, marked by moments of unbearable loneliness and memories that both comfort and wound. My dedicated support for grief and loss offers a guiding light through the darkness, providing a compassionate space to heal, remember, and gradually find your way forward.

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.

Aysha DeSilva
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I support individuals navigating grief and loss, which can manifest as numbness, disconnection, intense sadness, anger, confusion, and feelings of isolation. I help clients uncover and address the underlying emotions associated with their grief through psychodynamic therapy, interpersonal therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and EMDR. These approaches facilitate processing loss and developing effective coping strategies.
Together, we can create a safe space to explore how grief impacts your life and how to carry it in a way that feels more manageable.

Mariana Carabantes, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Any significant loss in life requires a process for grieving. Sometimes it's hard to accept those losses, and we find ourselves stuck in suffering. This results in complicated grief that interferes with our ability to function.

Ashley Miller Nolan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
“Each person's grief is as unique as their fingerprint. But what everyone has in common is that no matter how they grieve, they share a need for their grief to be witnessed. That doesn't mean needing someone to try to lessen it or reframe it for them. The need is for someone to be fully present to the magnitude of their loss without trying to point out the silver lining.” ― David Kessler, Finding Meaning: The Sixth Stage of Grief
I align with this quote. Grief and loss come in many forms and ultimately in death. My heart for grief work is being present and holding space to let you experience the full measure of your grief while staying anchored in the here and now. You will drown and then realize you are the ocean.
