Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
My work with grieving clients focuses on creating space for the full complexity of loss in all its forms—death of loved ones, relationship endings, loss of health or identity, and the life you thought you'd be living. Through compassionate, personalized approaches, we address key areas including the non-linear nature of grief, guilt and regret, anger and resentment, and navigating a world that expects you to "move on." I help clients honor their grief while finding ways to continue living, process complicated emotions including relief or ambivalence alongside sadness, develop language for what they're experiencing when words feel inadequate, and create meaningful rituals or practices that acknowledge loss while making space for what remains. My approach recognizes that grief isn't something to fix or get over—it's something to move through and integrate as part of your ongoing story.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Loss is inevitable. We all die and we all lose people, relationships, and states of being that we once loved. If we open ourselves to live an authentic, honest, interdependent life, we are sure to experience loss and grief. Many of us fear it so much that we develop a multitude of ways to avoid it, strike a connection balance that we believe will help us protect ourselves later (yet that often robs our joy in the meantime), and use substances or other numbing techniques to help us avoid the complicated process of grief. I believe we can all benefit from learning to appreciate that loss is inevitable, and to learn to grieve in a way that enables us to move forward with compassion and fulfillment.

Andrea Miller
Counselor/Therapist, NCC
In my therapeutic practice, I often utilize Narrative Therapy techniques to help clients navigate their experience of loss or grief by facilitating the exploration and reconstruction of their personal narratives surrounding the loss. Additionally, I integrate elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to assist clients in acknowledging their emotions, accepting their loss, and committing to actions that align with their values, fostering resilience and meaning-making in the grieving process. Drawing from Person-Centered Therapy principles, I provide a supportive and empathetic space for clients to express their emotions and process their grief at their own pace, honoring their unique journey towards healing and adjustment.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Clients need to talk with someone that they feel comfortable with when they are addressing loss and grief. Each grief episode or loss is a little (or a lot) different from another. Whether or not this was a recent loss or one from long ago, let's talk about how you are feeling to help you process the impact on you.

Mikela Hallmark
Therapist, MS, LPC, LMHC
Grief isn’t a problem to solve — it’s a story to be honored. Whether you're mourning the death of a loved one, the loss of a relationship, a life path you didn’t get to live, or a version of yourself that no longer fits, grief has a way of touching every part of us.
I work with grief gently, without rushing it or trying to "move you on." This is a space where you don’t have to be strong, positive, or put together. Where silence is allowed. Where your pain is not pathologized.
Together, we explore what’s been lost — and what still lives in you. We make room for sorrow, anger, numbness, and even the moments of unexpected peace. Grief changes you. But it doesn't mean you're broken. It means you loved. And in that, there is something profoundly human and worthy of tending.

Jennifer L. Lechliter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, NCC
Grief comes in waves in many forms: death of a loved one/pet, ended relationship, lost job/financial status, changing life stages, unfulfilled dreams/expectations, & beyond. At times this can be overwhelming, even something that we try to avoid from the pain & dark places it forces us. Guilt for experiencing joy during grief can also be confusing at times. However, learning to actively process & manage ongoing grief is more than possible. Together, we will grow your world around the grief you carry with you to build hope, peace, & fulfillment back into your life.

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.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Grief has no rulebook. It doesn’t follow a straight line or a set timeline, and it can come in waves—some small, some that knock you off your feet. Whether you’ve lost a loved one, a relationship, a part of your identity, or a future you had envisioned, the weight of loss can feel overwhelming. Maybe you’re struggling with sadness, guilt, or even numbness. Perhaps you feel pressure to “move on” when, deep down, you’re still trying to make sense of what life looks like without what you’ve lost.
Grief is not about getting over it—it’s about learning how to carry it in a way that allows you to keep moving forward. Together, we will create space for your emotions without judgment, honor what you’ve lost, and help you find a way to integrate this experience into your life. You don’t have to go through this alone. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting—it means finding a way to hold both the pain of loss and the possibility of hope.

Cindy Haines, Psy.D
Psychologist, Psy.D
At our practice, we use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help individuals navigate the challenges of loss and grief. Grief can bring overwhelming emotions, including sadness, guilt, and anxiety, which can sometimes lead to unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. Through CBT, we work with clients to process their loss, reframe negative thinking, and develop healthy coping strategies.
Our approach is compassionate and structured, helping individuals move through grief at their own pace while building resilience. We focus on identifying and addressing distressing thoughts, fostering self-compassion, and finding ways to honor and adjust to life after loss. Whether grieving the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or a significant life change, we provide the support and tools needed to heal and move forward.

Stacey Hellman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
Sometimes a person is diagnosed with Depression but what is actually happening is a normal grieving response to a loss like the death of a loved one, divorce, illness, miscarriage or other significant event. If this is the case then we need to focus on learning about what "counts" as a loss, learning about the grieving process, and supporting the client through the ups and downs that come with it. People process losses in different ways and it's important for clients to be able to identify what their patterns are and what messages they have received from parents, religion and society about how to handle loss. Sometimes these messages really cause harm and make it nearly impossible for someone to go through all the necessary stages of grief in order to integrate the loss into their experience. When we go through a loss, it can be very difficult to think about anything else and it's common for people to engage in behaviors to try to numb emotions and avoid thinking about it. But when we avoid dealing with the loss, it doesn't just get better on its own; rather we just delay the grieving process and the repressed feelings can actually cause physical illness. Additionally, when we don't process and feel our emotions, it's impossible to actually enjoy life because we are spending a lot of energy avoiding feelings and trying to be numb. Part of my job in helping people move through grief is to give them concrete tools they can use to deal with their feelings in small chunks rather than all at once which is overwhelming.

Pattie Vargas
Counselor/Therapist, CBC®️Certified Provider, Kessler Certified Grief Educator
Experiencing the loss of a loved one can be the most isolating time in our lives. After the meal trains end, the services are over, and the thank-you's have all been sent, we are often left to suffer in silence, leading to guilt, depression, and recrimination. This is especially true when the death was sudden and/or centered around less than socially acceptable manners of death, and often those around us simply don't know what to say or how to be around us. When we work together, there is no judgment on what you are feeling or how you are "progressing." Instead, we just process the way things are today.
