Grief
Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Grief and loss look different on everyone. Grief can happen when someone dies but it can also happen after a breakup, separation, friendship loss, job change/loss, injury, illness, a move, etc. The intensity and presentation of grief symptoms are different for everyone. Our culture and traditions can also inform our grief. Let's talk about it together.

Mun & Mind Therapy PLLC

Grief is a natural response to loss, but it is not limited to the death of a loved one. Individuals may grieve relationships, identities, opportunities, health, or life stages. Cultural and family expectations often shape how grief is expressed and understood. We provide a compassionate space to honor your loss, make meaning of your experience, and move through grief at your own pace.

Grief
Gracie Orellano
Marriage and Family Therapist, ALMFT
Throughout life there will be numerous experiences with grief. Whether it is familial loss, pet loss, financial loss, etc. it can feel impossible to get through. With therapy, you can process what it means to you. It can be difficult to face these emotions on your own and can feel overwhelming to begin processing them. Through therapy we can utilize different tools to enhance your emotional awareness, understand what narratives arise from your grief, and engage in creative ways to hold the grief while you continue to live your life.

Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCPC

My approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with gentle, strengths‑based guidance to help you understand your grief, manage overwhelming thoughts, and find healthy ways to cope.

Grief
Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I specialize in supporting individuals experiencing loss and grief across the lifespan. With professional experience in hospice and a dissertation focused on grief and loss, I bring both clinical expertise and deep compassion to this work. I take a companioning approach to grief, recognizing that healing often involves retelling your story many times as you move through it. Loss changes us permanently, and grief is the process of discovering who we are becoming. Together, we create space to honor your experience, process complex emotions, and find meaning and resilience moving forward.
