Santa Monica, California therapist: Timothy Walker, marriage and family therapist
Grief

Timothy Walker

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Grief is a season without end. It consumes, suffocates, diffuses. It is days of silence. It is unfeeling as a stone. It is raw as a volcano, erupting, tears for hours on end. Grief and loss are also incredibly human experiences. They confirm that we are living, feeling, complex creatures capable of more. Our capacity for grief is commiserate with our capacity for love.

Newport Beach, California therapist: Romina Schnelle, marriage and family therapist
Grief

Romina Schnelle

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Grief is a deeply personal experience that can follow the loss of a loved one, a beloved pet, a relationship, a significant life role, or the future you envisioned. There is no "right" way to grieve, and healing does not mean forgetting. I provide a compassionate, supportive space to help you process your loss, navigate the complex emotions that often accompany grief, and adapt to life after loss. When appropriate, I also incorporate EMDR to help address traumatic aspects of the loss or experiences that may be complicating the grieving process.

Santa Clara is at the heart of Silicon Valley, home to the global headquarters of major technology companies and a dense ecosystem of tech employers whose high-performance culture creates the well-documented mental health challenges of the sector—burnout, imposter syndrome, and the chronic stress of working at the frontier of global competition. The city is exceptionally diverse, with large South Asian and East Asian communities representing a significant proportion of the workforce, and the cultural dimensions of mental health stigma and help-seeking within these communities shape how therapy is accessed. Santa Clara University's Jesuit tradition contributes a values-oriented approach to student well-being, and the university's counseling center serves its student population. Common therapy concerns include tech industry burnout, anxiety, bicultural identity and acculturation stress, relationship difficulties, and the financial pressure of one of the most expensive housing markets in the country.
