Grief
Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Grief does not follow a timeline — and it rarely looks the way people expect it to. Loss can arrive in many forms: the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a career change, a medical diagnosis, or the quiet grief of a life that did not unfold the way you imagined. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I provide evidence-based grief therapy for adults navigating bereavement, complicated grief, anticipatory grief, disenfranchised grief, and loss-related depression and anxiety. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and trauma-informed care, I help clients move through grief with compassion, clarity, and genuine support. Telehealth grief therapy available across 40+ states.

Grief
Natalie Campbell
Psychologist, PsyD; LLC
I lost a partner in Covid and understand the underpinnings to intense grief. We have to learn to live with it and open ourselves up in ways that we never expected. We are alive! Grief is not a feeling that we can turn on and off....like a light switch. It's complicated and intense. I can help you navigate yours.

Grief
Haley Busch
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Grief does not move through stages, and it does not finish. My work with loss is less about resolution than about finding a way to carry it that does not require you to keep it quiet. I am particularly passionate about working with the losses that go unrecognized — a miscarriage, an estrangement, a loss no one around you counts as one — because grief with no sanctioned place to go tends to get heavier.

Grief
Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Grief is a profoundly heavy, non-linear journey that can reshape your entire world. Whether you are mourning the death of a loved one, navigating the invisible ache of pregnancy loss, or processing the ambiguous grief of a chronic illness diagnosis, Anne provides a warm, open, and deeply honoring space for you to carry your pain. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Certified Grief Informed Professional, she partners with individuals to safely explore their loss without pressure to "just get over it" or move on before they are ready.
Anne’s integrative approach is uniquely gentle and effective for bereavement care. Because intense grief often defies words, she blends traditional psychotherapy with creative art therapy techniques and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). These somatic and creative tools offer a safe outlet to externalize complex emotions—like anger, guilt, and profound sadness—while helping to calm a traumatized nervous system. Anne is dedicated to helping you honor your loss, build sustainable coping strategies for the triggers of daily life, and gently find a way forward at your own pace.

Grief
Donald Glenn
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC
Grief and loss are complicated, personal, and unavoidable. Societal and cultural expectations around grief and loss can add unexpected pressure and stress to an already impossibly painful time. Grief and loss go beyond death and show up in many forms throughout one's life (divorce/separation, job loss, illness and ability loss, loss of a pet, etc.) and can feel overwhelming and unmanageable. I did extra work and training with this challenging subject during my training, and continue to enjoy providing this needed service to clients.
