Grief
Hayden Dover
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT, CST
Grief touches more than feelings. It can affect the body, memory, identity, relationships, meaning, and the future a person imagined. My approach is grounded, relational, and respectful of the individuality of loss. Rather than forcing grief into stages or solutions, the work is about understanding what has changed, what still matters, and how to continue living with care, connection, and meaning.

GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I guide clients through loss and grief with a trauma-informed, compassionate approach that honors the unseen currents of human experience. Drawing on my training and experience as a thanatologist, and the wisdom of ancient earth-based grieving traditions often lost in Western culture, I integrate ritual, ceremony, and embodied practices to help grief move through the body and psyche. Together, we explore the layers of emotion, memory, and meaning, as well as science based information on what happens to the body as we grieve in order to create a better understanding of our grieving process, as well creating a sacred space for healing, transformation, and a renewed connection to life beyond loss.

Nora Katz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Founder and Clinical Director, Inner Compass Psychotherapy
Some losses never got the room they needed. I make space for grief that is old, complicated, or hard to explain, and we let it move at its own pace.

Grief
Jennifer Warkentin
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Grief is a normal human response to a great loss. We have different reactions to the process of losing someone or something that was important to us. I can walk beside you through that process and offer some strategies for reducing stress and pain. Please reach out if you are expecting a loss or recently suffered one.

Grief
Douglairian psychology apc
Marriage and Family Therapist, Lmft
I specialize in grief counseling. Losing a loved one is always difficult, and processing that grief is a non-linear journey that involves adapting to a "new reality" while honoring what was lost. Whether you are grieving a death, a relationship, or another major life change, my focus is on helping you move from surviving to growing.

Grief
Marge Michaelson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, ACSW, DSW
Loss and Grief are experienced with death and also many other incidents. There is a non-linear path to healing and techniques to help in the process. History shows the human condition as experiencing tragedy and finding a way to survive. Therapy is part of that way.
