Golden, Colorado therapist: Lauren Jensen, licensed clinical social worker
Grief

Lauren Jensen

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
One of my favorite Marvel quotes from WandaVision captures my perspective on grief and loss: “But what is grief if not love persevering?” Exactly. Grief and loss happen all the time, and not just when we lose someone we love. Grief also happens when we lose a job, our health, our marriage falls apart, we experience a miscarriage or natural disaster or we are single and desiring to be in a partnership. Grief and loss are about adapting to change - and change is everywhere. Let me walk with you and help guide you through this journey so that you can slowly and steadily learn to incorporate the grief and loss into your life in healthy ways.

Grief

The pain of loss can be devastating and it can feel overwhelming not knowing when it will resolve. The subsequent mood swings can be disorienting and frustrating- feeling devastated one moment then laughing at an unexpected joke then feeling guilty about it! As having undergone many personal losses myself, I can help you navigate these complicated waters in a safe and compassionate space to honor the loss. I'm trained in EMDR, Brainspotting and Splankna to address difficult losses you might find yourself stuck in.

Seattle, Washington therapist: Christy A McCornack, counselor/therapist
Grief

Christy A McCornack

Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Loss is a daily part of our lives. How much we grieve a loss depends on how much we value what or who we have lost. Grief does not just come when we lose a loved one, but can also come when we experience a significant shift in how we view the world or when we experience a significant life transition. The benefit of allowing yourself to move through a grief process is that it can give you great insight into what you value and why you value it. Grief can be a wonderful teacher.

Denver, Colorado therapist: Denver Wellness Counseling, licensed professional counselor
Grief

Denver Wellness Counseling

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Grief and loss is a normal part of the human experience, yet the suffering is intense and often lengthy. Grief work can be for the loss of a loved one, pet, job, identity, social group, dream/goal, ability, or construct. In therapy, we discuss the difference between "normal grief" (though grief looks different for different people) and "complicated grief" where any number of factors can act as a hinderance to the grieving process. Complicated grief can look like any of the following: having a complicated relationship with the deceased (unsaid words, unsettled grievances), death that is unexpected or violent, underlying attachment wounds, lack of support/understanding from your others, or any traumatic aspect of the experience surrounding the loss. At Denver Wellness Counseling, we approach grief work with the goal of healthy grief, which is a two pronged (somewhat conflicting) goal of moving on in life while also remaining connected to the deceased in a way that feels right. We often use EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) to address the complicating or traumatic factors that are hindering the grief process. Grief work always includes a component of future work, guiding the client to successfully imagine a future where they can maintain some connection to the loss, while also living what they consider a good life.

Bee Still Grief & Loss Counseling, LLC.

Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselor
Whether you've lost someone you loved or are navigating the ending of a relationship, job, or role in your life (I'm talking to you empty nesters), dealing with the changes brought on by loss can be daunting and overwhelming. I enjoy "sitting in grief" with you. I know nothing can ever replace what has been lost, but I hope to walk with you in navigating the emotions, life changes, and areas of grief that many don't talk about such as anger, guilt, and shame, as well as unresolved issues that keep you stuck in a negative pattern.

We will work together to rebalance your life and I will facilitate your healing process. We will work on what the relationship meant/means to you and support you in honoring your loved one in whatever way is most meaningful to you.

Denver, Colorado therapist: Dr. Elizabeth Coldren, psychologist
Grief

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren

Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people carrying life altering grief. Grief does not only follow death. It can arise after a medical crisis, a rupture in family relationships, a change in roles, the loss of health or a sense of safety, or a slow, quiet shift you cannot quite name. Many people I see are living with grief that others do not fully recognize. You may be functioning on the outside while feeling heavy, numb, angry, or alone on the inside. You might notice a sense of “before and after” in your life, feel confused that you are still affected this much, or wonder how it is possible to move forward. Grief can be especially painful when the people around you do not really see it, or when there is no clear ritual or role for what you have lost. You might feel like there is no obvious place for your story to go, and no one you can talk to without having to minimize, explain, or protect them from the depth of what you feel. In our work together, we make room for your grief at the pace your body and heart can handle. We explore what this loss has touched in your identity, relationships, and daily life, and we stay curious about the forms your grief wants to take: tears, anger, quiet, questions, or even moments of relief. Our work is not about getting over what happened, but about finding ways to live with it that feel more honest, supported, and bearable, especially when the depth of your experience is not obvious to the outside world.

Denver's outdoor culture and apparent wellness orientation coexist with high rates of depression, anxiety, and substance use — a tension many locals recognize. The city's rapid growth and housing pressures have intensified stress for longtime residents and newcomers alike, and therapists frequently address adjustment, relationship strain, and burnout tied to the city's boom-era pace. Denver has a significant veteran population given proximity to several military installations, and therapists specializing in military trauma and PTSD are well represented. UCHealth and Intermountain Health (formerly SCL Health) provide major institutional anchors alongside Denver's large and well-established independent therapy community.
