Tatiana Turo-Handy, PsyD., PMH-C
Psychologist, PsyD. PMH-C
Grief can feel isolating, disorienting, and overwhelming, whether it stems from the loss of a loved one, a pregnancy, a relationship, a life role, or a hoped‑for future. As a bilingual (Spanish/English) psychologist, I offer compassionate, evidence‑based therapy to help individuals navigate the emotional weight of loss, make sense of their experience, and find a path toward healing at their own pace. Therapy provides a steady, supportive space to explore sadness, anger, confusion, and moments of meaning as you rebuild a sense of connection and stability.

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.

Dr. Weston Donaldson
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
Grief isn't always about someone dying. You might be mourning a relationship, a family you hoped to have, a community you are no longer part of, changes in your health, or a future that you counted on but is no longer possible. Maybe someone died, but your relationship with them was complicated. You might feel angry, relived, or numb, or wondering why you just can't get past it and move on like everyone else seemed to. LGBTQ+ adults carry layers of loss that other people don't always recognize or understand. As a gay psychologist, I offer a space where you can tell the whole story without making your feelings more acceptable for someone else's comfort. In our work together, we can make room for what hurts while figuring out how to keep living a life that matters to you.

Mary Ramatici
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW
Grief and loss can show up in many forms, whether it's losing a loved one, the end of a relationship, or any other significant change that leaves you feeling like something is missing. I provide a compassionate space to process your grief at your own pace, without judgment or a timeline, so you can find your way through it while honoring what it meant to you. I've experienced the loss of a loved one myself, so I bring not only my professional training but also a personal understanding of grief, which allows us to connect on a human level through this process.
