Grief
Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Bereavement can be an especially lonely experience as people navigate loss in the context of a death-phobic culture. Community care and ritual are often missing for people as they cope with the ongoing nature of loss. Depending on the nature of the loss, trauma processing therapy might also be helpful in supporting the bereavement process over time.

Grief
Lauren Chavis
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
Grief can follow the death of someone you love, but it can also accompany infertility, pregnancy loss, relationship changes, health concerns, or other significant life transitions. I provide space to process loss without expectations about what grief “should” look like while helping you adjust to the changes it has brought to your life.

Grief
Cindy Haines, Psy.D
Psychologist, Psy.D
At our practice, we use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help individuals navigate the challenges of loss and grief. Grief can bring overwhelming emotions, including sadness, guilt, and anxiety, which can sometimes lead to unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. Through CBT, we work with clients to process their loss, reframe negative thinking, and develop healthy coping strategies.
Our approach is compassionate and structured, helping individuals move through grief at their own pace while building resilience. We focus on identifying and addressing distressing thoughts, fostering self-compassion, and finding ways to honor and adjust to life after loss. Whether grieving the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or a significant life change, we provide the support and tools needed to heal and move forward.

Topeka is Kansas's state capital and a city with an unusually significant mental health history—the Menninger Clinic, for decades one of the world's leading psychiatric institutions, was founded and based in Topeka before relocating to Houston in 2003, leaving a legacy of mental health awareness and professional expertise that still influences the community. The city is also historically significant as the location of the plaintiffs in Brown v. Board of Education, the landmark Supreme Court desegregation case, and the ongoing work of racial equity remains an important dimension of community life and mental health context. Stormont Vail Health provides behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves Topeka's mix of government, legal, and healthcare workers alongside the broader population. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, racial justice and identity, economic stress in a mid-size state capital, and the particular challenges of a community working to reimagine its future.
