Grief
Christina Dee
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A. LMFT
Grief rearranges the landscape of our life often disorienting and painful. It’s important to know how to attend to your grief and give it the time and space it needs. I have extensive clinical experience supporting individuals grieving a death or coping with a life-limiting illness as well as providing individual and group support for those healing from PTSD and death related trauma issues.

Grief
Micaela Magazzu-Alaman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Grief can follow death, but it can also accompany the loss of relationships, communities, identities, health, imagined futures, places, opportunities, or a sense of safety and certainty about the world.
I approach grief as something to make space for rather than something that needs to follow a particular timeline. Therapy can offer room for sadness, anger, confusion, relief, meaning-making, memory, and the complicated emotions that often coexist with loss.
We can also make space for forms of grief that are sometimes difficult to name or find support around, including ecological and climate grief, political grief, collective loss, and grief connected to changes in community or the world around us.

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.

Grief
Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
In the moment, grief can feel impossible to overcome. After all, this is someone or something you love and care about deeply and that feeling of loss is completely unique. Together we will work on honoring the loss while also attending to your unique emotional needs.

Grief
Brooke Taylor
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
Grief isn't only about death. For a teen it can be the divorce, the move, the friend group that closed ranks, the parent who isn't the same anymore, the version of their life that ended without anyone calling it a loss. Teens often grieve without the language for it, and without permission, the people around them are grieving too, or the loss doesn't look like one from the outside.
It also rarely looks like sadness. It can show up as anger, numbness, a sudden drop in school, clinginess or distance, or a teen who seems fine for weeks and then isn't. Grief in adolescence tends to come in waves rather than stages, and it often resurfaces later, at each new developmental step.
I work with teens through losses of both kinds: the external ones: a death, a separation, a major transition and the internal ones, the mourning of who they were, where they belonged, or how safe the world used to feel.
Together we make space for what they're carrying without rushing it. My work draws on relational trauma therapy, mindfulness, and somatic awareness, which matters here because grief lives in the body as much as the mind. The goal isn't to move your teen past it. It's to help them carry it in a way that leaves room for the rest of their life.
