Grief
Timothy Long
Registered Psychotherapist
Losing a loved one, a dear pet, a divorce, even a hard romantic break-up is often a very painful, confusing time. Our culture does not welcome or understand grief very well. Sometimes you think it is gone, and it returns. It can easily return on anniversaries. You don't have to live with it or push through it. It is not healthy to push it down and ignore it. This can cause disease later on. I lost my mother to cancer when I was only 24. I also was her nurse. Additionally I have worked in nursing hospitals. We can work to release your grief and allow you to enjoy life again. If you are suffering with loss or grief, please schedule an appointment. You will be very glad and relieved you did.

Grief
Kelli Tahaney
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Ph.D.
Grief and loss is a universal human experience, one that often plays a role in depression, anxiety, and complex trauma reactions. I help clients process loss and learn to understand grief and loss as emotions that are natural, at times overwhelming, and often as a sign that we experienced love and meaning.

Grief
Susana Levy, Makaua Art Therapy
Art Therapist, LPCC, ATRP
My specialty is supporting people through loss and grief using mindfulness-based, person-centered practices that honor both pain and transformation. Drawing on rituals and rites of passage, as well as my work as a cacao facilitator and yoga teacher, I create gentle, grounding spaces for remembrance, expression, and healing. I value compassionate presence, creativity, and embodied awareness as ways to meet grief in the here and now.

Katherine Coder
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC
Loss or grief is a natural part of human life. Sometimes our society or culture does not hold these kinds of life experiences very well, and they can become overwhelming or a person can simply feel at a loss to move through them. I offer specific support around being with the grief and loss that helps metabolize it in an organic way. Each person will process differently so we will find the right tools to support what you need. Somatic therapy, deep brain reorienting, sacred space holding are all ways that have been helpful to others in this space.

Grief
David Redbord
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MPH, LPCC
Grief is the feeling of sadness that happens after the experience of loss.
It could be the loss of a person like a parent or a child, a pet, or even a situation like your home or workplace.
Grief is a nonlinear process. It arises in unexpected moments.
Over time, though, as we allow ourselves to feel the grief as long as we’re not pushing it down when it comes up, it will come up less and less as more time passes.
I’d be honored to support you in working with grief effectively.

Grief
Jessica Evers Killebrew, Psy.D.
Registered Psychotherapist, Psy.D.
I have helped a wide variety of people who are experiencing grief. In fact, I would assert that we are in grief stages or grieving something, even if it a part of yourself in parenthood for example that has shifted beyond recognition. Greif whether acute or chronic is a condtion of being human. Walking a path that acknowledges grief and loss means that we can live more fully; I would argue it is key.

Grief
Logan Druckman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LPC, NCC
There isn't necessarily a "right" way to work with grief and all losses are different. That being said, it can be invaluable to have a safe, objective place to process your pain without worrying about burdening others. Sometimes, truly being "seen" when you are grieving is immensely healing. It is an honor for me to be able to support people through grief and loss.

Grief
Averill Hovey
Art Therapist, MA, MA, LPC-S, ATR-BC, EMDR
Grief can follow the death of someone we love, but it can also emerge through changes in relationships, family, health, identity, work, or the loss of a life we expected to have. There is no single way to grieve and no timetable for when we are supposed to feel “better.”
I approach grief as an experience to be witnessed, expressed, and integrated rather than something to overcome. Drawing from art therapy, transpersonal psychology, somatic and mindfulness-based practices, Gestalt, and experiential work, I offer different ways to explore loss when words alone may not be enough.
Together, we can make space for the many emotions grief carries, honor what has been lost, and explore how to remain connected to what matters while gradually finding your way into a life that has been changed by the experience.

Boulder is home to the University of Colorado Boulder and has one of the highest educational attainment rates and most progressive cultures of any American city, with exceptional access to therapy—CU's graduate programs produce many trained clinicians—alongside the specific pressures of a city with extreme housing costs, intense social comparison around physical fitness and achievement, and a large university student population. The 2021 King Soopers mass shooting created community-level trauma that remains present in Boulder's collective consciousness, and local therapists have significant experience with trauma-informed care. The city's outdoor recreation culture and emphasis on wellness are genuine assets but can also create pressure around physical appearance and lifestyle perfection that feeds anxiety and disordered eating. Common therapy concerns include academic perfectionism, housing insecurity anxiety, trauma, the psychological pressure of an exceptionally high-achieving and health-conscious culture, and student mental health.
