Loss or Grief therapists in Alabaster, Alabama AL
Cindy Yu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Are you experiencing the loss of someone or a relationship near you? Are you experiencing anger, sadness, or pain? Maybe you are asking yourself how or why this happened. Or you may even be experiencing guilt or regret. The five stages of loss & grief often repeats in cycles for a long time after the loss occurred, but rarely people actively do something about it, and more often due to believing that there is nothing they could do but give it time. Without proper processing and healing of the grief, time can only do so much. I have extensive experiences helping clients processing their grief & loss, which has often decreased their recovering process time tremendously.

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.

Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Grief feels insurmountable. Even the smallest task may require more emotional energy than the person has to complete the task. Grief affects every other area of a person's life. Grief treatment is primarily person centered. My job as a therapist is to allow my clients to cry or scream or say horrible things about the person they have lost because I won't judge you for anything you say or do. For most people no one else in their lives understands why they are still grieving. Grief and I are old friends. I don't expect you to grieve the same way I do or the same way anyone else does. I just offer you a space to be yourself and say the quiet thoughts out loud.

Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
I offer a compassionate sanctuary for those navigating the profound and often turbulent waters of loss and grief. I understand that grief is not a linear journey but a complex tapestry of emotions that can engulf one's life. With a gentle and empathetic approach, I walk beside you through this journey, honoring your unique experience of loss. Together, we explore the depths of sorrow, seeking to understand and embrace the myriad feelings that come with bereavement. It's a path towards healing, not about moving on, but about finding a way to carry your loss with grace, integrating this profound experience into your life, and rediscovering a sense of wholeness and peace amidst the echoes of what was lost.

Julie Novak
Psychologist, PsyD
Without love, there would be no grief. Grief brings so many different emotions, causing feelings of being overwhelmed, despair, loneliness and hopelessness. Together we will find meaning in your loss and how you can cope with the pain without carrying the suffering.
