Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
We experience grief—heartbreak—on the of a death of a loved one, whether it be our parent, a partner, a friend, or a pet. Grief is also very real when a relationship ends, our health declines, or a dream dies. We experience grief when we lose someone with whom we never resolved our differences. Sometimes the emptiness of grief lingers because we did not receive much-needed love and nurturing as a child. Today many of us feel a collective grief in relation to ecological or political conditions in our world. In our work together, we will tend with care and patience to the complex emotions that accompany the wounds of grief, honoring the ways in which pain from loss can change us, and holding space for acceptance and rediscovery of meaning and presence our lives.

Kayzim Suárez-Reyes
Psychologist, PhD
I offer a safe, confidential space where you can explore and process the profound emotional and psychological impact of your unique loss. My approach moves beyond traditional "stages" to recognize grief as a complex, non-linear journey, whether you're navigating the pain of bereavement, the disorienting change of divorce, the strain of chronic illness, or other significant life transitions. Utilizing evidence-based modalities, I will help you build adaptive coping strategies, find ways to meaningfully integrate the loss into your life story, and ultimately move toward healing and renewed purpose, without requiring you to "get over" what mattered. A loss stays with us forever but it doesn't have to hurt so much.

We'll work on finding meaning and committing to the values that guide you, even in the midst of pain and change. You will be supported in navigating this new terrain and finding restorative comfort through natural connection and self-compassion.

David Sudyka
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT, MA
Grief can show up in many ways, including sadness, anger, confusion, or even numbness. It can be difficult to process, especially when life continues moving forward around you. In therapy we will create space for you to talk openly about your loss and move through your grief at your own pace. The goal is not to rush the process, but to help you find ways to carry it while still staying connected to your life.
