Grief
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.

Grief
Dr. Pam Heilman
Psychologist, Psy.D., LCP
There is no one right way to grieve a loss. We often associate grief with losing a loved one but it can occur with other significant life changes such as the end of a relationship, loss of a pet, job loss, changes in your family dynamic, or other significant life changes. I have worked with many clients experiencing grief and they often share with me that they feel alone and misunderstood by others. As human beings, we often struggle to know how to respond to someone who is grieving. As a result, people who are grieving may feel isolated or try to put on a brave face so that they do not feel like a burden to others. In therapy, you can come exactly as you are and you don't have to put on a brave face. In our work together, you will have the space to process your thoughts and feelings associated with your grief. An important goal is to help you find ways to honor the loss while still allowing room for new experiences and meaningful connections in your life.

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.

Grief
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.

Grief
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people carrying life altering grief. Grief does not only follow death. It can arise after a medical crisis, a rupture in family relationships, a change in roles, the loss of health or a sense of safety, or a slow, quiet shift you cannot quite name. Many people I see are living with grief that others do not fully recognize. You may be functioning on the outside while feeling heavy, numb, angry, or alone on the inside. You might notice a sense of “before and after” in your life, feel confused that you are still affected this much, or wonder how it is possible to move forward.
Grief can be especially painful when the people around you do not really see it, or when there is no clear ritual or role for what you have lost. You might feel like there is no obvious place for your story to go, and no one you can talk to without having to minimize, explain, or protect them from the depth of what you feel.
In our work together, we make room for your grief at the pace your body and heart can handle. We explore what this loss has touched in your identity, relationships, and daily life, and we stay curious about the forms your grief wants to take: tears, anger, quiet, questions, or even moments of relief. Our work is not about getting over what happened, but about finding ways to live with it that feel more honest, supported, and bearable, especially when the depth of your experience is not obvious to the outside world.

Jason Hutchings
Psychologist, PsyD
Grief is a massive reality check in life. It delivers us a message that, often, we are not ready or willing to hear. We can unlock the power of what grief has to offer while processing the difficult journey we all experience when life takes turns we do not want or expect.
