Grief
Jesika Doty - Amphora Mental Health Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
As a young widow and mother, I know and understand profound loss and grief. Every nuance and every way that it can dig its way into your core and within every fiber of your being. I have walked this path and there is hope but sometimes we need support along the way. When working with me through your own loss and grief, our paths are unique and our loss and grief stories are unique and I always hold this idea first and foremost. I work with you on addressing the emotional issues that might arise for loss in a way that is unique to you and your own process, while also giving you tools and resources to move forward in loss and find the joy again in life.

Grief
Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
Grief doesn’t follow a timeline—and it doesn’t always look the way people expect. You might be holding it together on the outside while falling apart inside. You may be showing up to work, caring for others, or getting through your day just fine—until you're not. Whether your loss was recent or years ago, the weight of grief can feel disorienting, isolating, or even invisible.
I work with adults navigating many forms of grief: the death of a loved one, anticipatory loss, traumatic or complicated grief, and losses that society often overlooks—like the loss of a pet, estranged relationships, identity shifts, or ambiguous goodbyes that have no closure. In a culture that often minimizes grief or meets it with discomfort, my role is to offer a steady presence and a space where your pain is valid, welcome, and never rushed.
At The Momentum Practice, we’ll honor what’s been lost, make space for the full range of emotions, and work toward a sense of acceptance—not forgetting or moving on, but learning how to live with grief in a way that feels more sustainable and integrated. Whether your grief shows up as sorrow, numbness, guilt, anger, or all of the above, you are not broken—and you don’t have to carry it alone.
With over 15 years of experience, I help clients move through grief with compassion, clarity, and care. Together, we’ll begin to make meaning in the midst of heartache and gently reconnect with hope, strength, and even moments of peace. I’d be honored to journey alongside you.

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
MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Many of my clients have come to me to get over the loss of someone whether through breakup, divorce, or death. Even when loss isn't the primary reason for them seeking my help, it is often something impacting the issue at hand. In all cases I have been able to help my clients let go and move forward. In hypnosis, we can have people speak with someone who has passed on, whether it is to exchange some final goodbyes, get love and support, resolve some old dispute or trauma. I've had several clients who had trouble letting go after a breakup and we have managed to get them to move on. I had one female client who came to me for a variety of issues. She had been through a difficult divorce and Cancer diagnosis while raising 3 young children. Throughout her ordeal, she had received immense support from the priest at her church but he had passed away and she missed him immensely. In hypnosis, we visited his spirit and she was able to feel again his love and support and get his counsel. As another part of her treatment, we were able to converse with her late father who had abandoned the family when she was a child, and release the trauma that he had caused. Whether you believe in spirits or not, the experiences in hypnosis feel absolutely real and are able to bring peace and resolution.

Grief
Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
Grief is often more than sadness—it’s a signal of what mattered deeply, reflecting your connections, values, and past experiences. In our work, we create a supportive space to feel, reflect, and make sense of your loss. Approached with care and curiosity, grief can become a pathway to understanding, integration, and renewed connection with yourself and others.
