Grief
Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Grief does not follow a timeline — and it rarely looks the way people expect it to. Loss can arrive in many forms: the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a career change, a medical diagnosis, or the quiet grief of a life that did not unfold the way you imagined. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I provide evidence-based grief therapy for adults navigating bereavement, complicated grief, anticipatory grief, disenfranchised grief, and loss-related depression and anxiety. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and trauma-informed care, I help clients move through grief with compassion, clarity, and genuine support. Telehealth grief therapy available across 40+ states.

Grief
Stella Zweben Samuel, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have worked for many years with those individuals who have experienced loss. Some of my clinical work is educating clients on the grieving process and allowing for further understanding of how the client is impacted by grief and loss. My clients who experience loss feel supported and encouraged to understand the feelings and thoughts they are having. I provide a non-judgmental space for individuals who have a history of loss and grief to feel supported.
