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.

Su Boudreau, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Domestic Violence Counselor
Emotional experiences of sadness or anger and other behavioral changes can arise as the result of a loss. People can get a better understanding of what they are going through and help prevent and reduce prolonged undesirable effects in their lives through counseling when grief/bereavement has affected them. Even though it is normal to feel sad after a loss, when the sadness prolongs and starts affecting one's ability to return to the previous level of daily functioning, it is advisable to seek help from trained professionals to prevent worsening of symptoms, such as developing depression.

Sue De Santo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I walk alongside individuals facing the heartbreak of loss—whether it’s a death, the end of a relationship, a life transition, or a future you thought you’d have. In a gentle, steady space, we tend to the parts of you that feel shattered, numb, guilty, or overwhelmed, and we allow grief to move at its own pace, you can slowly integrate your loss, stay connected to what (or who) you love, and begin to feel moments of meaning and aliveness again. You can slowly integrate your loss, stay connected to what (or who) you love, and begin to feel moments of meaning and aliveness again.

Chris 'Bucky' Bateman

Grief doesn't follow a timeline or a rulebook. Whether you've lost a person, a relationship, a season of life, or a version of yourself, the pain is real and it deserves to be honored. We provide a calm, unhurried space where you can process your loss at your own pace, without pressure to move on before you're ready. Healing is possible and you don't have to walk it alone.

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.
