Grief
Louis Hoffman
Psychologist, PhD
Grief and loss are deeply personal experiences that can profoundly affect our sense of identity, connection, meaning, and understanding of the world. Whether grieving the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or other significant losses, there is no single right way to grieve or predetermined timeline for healing. I provide a compassionate, supportive space where clients can explore their grief, honor their experiences, and navigate the complex emotions that accompany loss. With grief and loss, I often incorporate forms of expressive writing when this fits with the client. Rather than viewing grief as something to simply overcome, I recognize it as a meaningful response to love, attachment, and the realities of human existence. Together, we explore ways to integrate loss into one's life, maintain meaningful connections, and gradually rediscover possibilities for hope, purpose, and engagement with life while honoring what has been lost.

Grief
Jennifer Francke Psychotherapy, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LIMHP, LPC, LADC, LMHC
Losing someone you love or experiencing a significant life change can be one of the most difficult and painful experiences in life. Whether it’s the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or any other form of loss, the grief that follows can leave you feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about how to move forward. Therapy can provide the support and guidance you need to navigate the complex emotions of sorrow, anger, guilt, and even relief. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space where we can explore your grief and work together on healthy coping strategies. With approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to challenge negative thought patterns, Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) to cultivate self-compassion, and Narrative Therapy to reframe your relationship with your loss, I help you process your emotions and find meaning in your healing journey. Together, we can work toward creating a path to healing, rebuilding hope, and finding peace as you move through the grief process.

Debra Younger
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, LPC, LMHC, CCPT
CHANGE = LOSS = GRIEF. Change is a part of life, but what isn't readily known, is that all change, whether it be good or bad, creates loss and all loss has to be grieved. No matter what the loss is, the grieving process is the same. In our work together you will become familiar with the grieving process and discover ways to help in your healing process.
