Grief
Karen J. Osterle
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSSA, LICSW
A loss of someone you love can change everything and prompt us to delve into the most existential internal searches. First and foremost, we need a safe space to process what happened, why it happened, and what now gives life meaning---especially if our feelings seem to shift from one minute to the next. This therapy gives you a place to get organized by talking about the ineffable, thereby moving toward accommodation, acceptance, and even moments of peace. I am a Certified Grief Therapist (David Kessler, Grief.com) and Master (Robert Neimeyer, PhD).

Providing grief counseling or therapy can provide support and guidance for individuals navigating the grieving process. I will help you explore feelings, cope with loss, adjust to life changes, and find ways to honor and remember what or who has been lost.

Grief
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.

Rather than limit counseling to only one approach, I offer my clients what I think is best specifically for them from a wide array of expert approaches in my marriage and other counseling. In addition to leading seminars to train other professionals in marriage counseling, I have benefited by receiving extensive professional training from most of the leading marriage counseling experts in the country, including but not limited to John Gottman, Susan Johnson, John Gray, Harville Hendrix, Virginia Satyr, Ellyn Bader and Peter Pearson, Gary Brainard, Frank Pittman, Shirley Glass, Janice Abrahms Spring, and Neil Jacobson. In conducting counseling, I am fortunate to be able to choose from numerous resources including principles from Gottman's research, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Mars & Venus Counseling, Imago Therapy, Positive Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Systems Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Rogerian Therapy, Integrative Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Reality Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy, Gestalt Techniques, NLP, and EMDR.

Virginia Beach and the surrounding Hampton Roads metro area have one of the highest concentrations of active-duty military personnel and veterans in the country, anchored by Naval Station Norfolk — the world's largest naval base — creating sustained demand for therapists who specialize in military trauma, PTSD, and the dynamics of military family life. Therapists experienced with moral injury, deployment-related adjustment, and service-to-civilian transition are well represented, and many practices specifically orient their care toward service members and their families. Sentara Healthcare and Bon Secours provide institutional mental health resources for the region, complemented by a growing private practice community. Virginia Beach's coastal environment and strong community ties give the city a relatively stable baseline, though the psychological weight of military life remains a defining feature of the local therapy landscape.
