Grief
Dr. Daniele Levy, Bay Area Cognitive Therapy
Psychologist, PhD, MBA
In my approach to treating grief, I combine Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with a compassionate, structured framework that helps you navigate the complex emotions that come with loss. I understand that grief is deeply personal and can manifest in many ways, which is why I tailor my approach to fit your unique experience. Together, we’ll work on processing and reframing your thoughts and feelings surrounding grief, aiming to ease the emotional weight and help you move forward. With healthy coping strategies, you can build emotional resilience and honor your grief while fostering long-term healing.

Grief
Michelle Bourgerie
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, APCC
When grief sits in your throat, and feels like fear, it can stop you in your tracks. Sometimes a song, smell, or a photo will bring a flood of grief. When you are still going to work or have to continue keeping home and kids on schedule, grief gets stuffed down deep. You might be wondering when you'll start to feel like yourself again, when you will stop feeling distracted and forgetful. You may wonder how long you can keep stuffing the grief in order to get through the day. If you're drinking at night to cope, or not sleeping at all or too much, you need extra support. Grief is a journey that no one should travel alone. You'll be okay, I've walked with so many through their grief and loss. You don't have to know the phases of grief and how to process it, because I do, and I can help you. It's a privilege to help you navigate profound grief and to help you honor your loved one as we work together to help help the color come back into your life, and even joy.

Lisa McNelley Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #156096
I was grateful when someone told me that there's no one way to grieve. We all move through in our own way and timeline. Sometimes, that process gets stuck or it's too much. Maybe it's an unexpected diagnosis or unanticipated death. Maybe it's realizing that the window for an opportunity has passed and you're grieving the loss of what was. When grief is getting in the way of your day-to-day life and relationships, I can help you process your loss as well as find meaning and hope as you move through it.

Nancee Belshaw
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Losing someone you love, or experiencing another profound loss, can change the way you see yourself and the world around you. Grief is deeply personal, and there is no single correct way or timetable for healing. I offer a compassionate space where you can express your sadness, anger, confusion, or loneliness without feeling pressured to move on. Together, we can honor the significance of your loss while helping you gradually rediscover meaning, connection, and the possibility of joy in your life.
