Prolonged grief can feel like an overwhelming, heavy fog that keeps you stuck in the past and disconnected from the present. Whether you are navigating the death of a loved one, a painful breakup, or a significant life transition, grief rarely moves in a straight line. I provide a compassionate, patient space to help you honor your pain without pressure or judgment. Together, we will work on processing your loss at your own pace, helping you carry your grief while gradually rebuilding a meaningful life forward.

Susanne R Mealer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Grief and loss are often very misunderstood or not recognized as important enough to seek help for. This couldn't be further from the truth. We not only need to grieve what and whom we have lost, but also what we didn't have/get (especially in childhood).

Felicita Ortiz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Grief does not follow a timetable, and loss can affect far more than our emotions. Whether you are grieving a death, relationship, major life change, or another meaningful loss, therapy can provide a safe place to process what has happened and find a way forward without minimizing what you have experienced. I offer grief counseling in Spanish and English through online therapy across Florida.

Fort Lauderdale has one of the largest LGBTQ+ communities and most established affirming therapy ecosystems in the southeastern United States, with LGBTQ+-focused practices and therapists well represented across the city and Broward County. The city's affluent waterfront and yachting culture — and its reputation as a destination for wealthy retirees and seasonal residents — create a distinctive therapy clientele that includes high-net-worth individuals navigating relationship complexity, addiction, and the existential weight of leisure-focused affluence. Broward Health and Memorial Healthcare System provide institutional mental health resources for a county of nearly two million people. Fort Lauderdale's large Brazilian and Haitian communities generate demand for Portuguese- and Haitian Creole-speaking therapists, and the broader South Florida recovery community makes addiction treatment and aftercare among the most active practice areas in the region.
