Grief
Jaylan Abd Elrahman
Psychologist, PhD
What an honor it is to be a supportive companion on your path to deeper wellness! I see therapy as a process wherein people can grow a more honest connection with themselves, learn and practice hope-generating perspectives and skills in their lives and stretch their imaginations for how to lovingly create a future that feels meaningful and liberating!
Dr. Jay works with adolescents and adults who:
* Struggle to manage the stresses of daily life and experience emotional distress, depression, grief and/or anxiety
* Are survivors of complex trauma, interpersonal, generational and/or collective trauma
* Yearn to clarify purpose in life, often exploring existential, spiritual, and identity-based questions
* Seek a space to dream beyond the moment they are in to create new futures for themselves and those they love
* Values justice-oriented, compassionate, and creative relational care

Grief
Dr. Cara Bussell, PhD, LLC
Psychologist
Grief can follow many kinds of losses, including the death of a loved one, changes in health, the end of a relationship, or other major life transitions. I offer therapy to help adults process their grief at their own pace, without judgment or pressure to move on. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and tailored to each person’s unique experience. Together, we can create space for your emotions, explore meaning, and support healing. If you are feeling overwhelmed by loss or struggling to adjust, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation.

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.

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.
