GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I guide clients through loss and grief with a trauma-informed, compassionate approach that honors the unseen currents of human experience. Drawing on my training and experience as a thanatologist, and the wisdom of ancient earth-based grieving traditions often lost in Western culture, I integrate ritual, ceremony, and embodied practices to help grief move through the body and psyche. Together, we explore the layers of emotion, memory, and meaning, as well as science based information on what happens to the body as we grieve in order to create a better understanding of our grieving process, as well creating a sacred space for healing, transformation, and a renewed connection to life beyond loss.

Timothy Weymann
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.)
Grief is not something to “get over.” It’s something to move through—at your own pace, in your own way. As a therapist specializing in grief and loss, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can bring the full weight of your experience—whether you’re mourning the death of a loved one, a relationship, a health change, a pregnancy loss, or another deeply personal loss. Together, we’ll honor your story and the meaning of what (or who) has been lost. I help clients navigate the waves of sadness, anger, guilt, numbness, and confusion that often accompany grief, while gently supporting the rebuilding of life around that loss. My approach is warm, steady, and attuned—balancing space for emotional expression with practical tools to cope with overwhelming moments. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting; it means learning how to carry your loss in a way that allows for connection, purpose, and even moments of light again. You don’t have to walk this path alone.
