Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Grief isn't a problem to solve or a stage to get through – it's a deeply human response to loss that asks for witness, not fixing. Whether you're mourning a death, a relationship ending, a dream that didn't come true, or the slower losses that come with aging and illness, grief has a way of catching you off-guard when you least expect it. I work with Francis Weller's framework of the 6 Gates of Grief: the loss of someone or something we love, the places in ourselves that have not known love (the wounds and abandonment from our past), the sorrows of the world (climate change, injustice, collective suffering), what we expected and did not receive (unfulfilled dreams and unmet longings), ancestral grief (inherited traumas passed through generations), and the harm we have caused (the regret and moral struggle of our own shortcomings). We'll explore how these different dimensions of grief show up in your life, how to allow rather than resist the waves when they come, and how to find your way back to aliveness even while carrying loss. This isn't about "moving on" or "getting closure" – it's about learning to hold grief without it consuming you, and discovering that you can grieve and still experience vitality.

Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
My work with grieving clients focuses on creating space for the full complexity of loss in all its forms—death of loved ones, relationship endings, loss of health or identity, and the life you thought you'd be living. Through compassionate, personalized approaches, we address key areas including the non-linear nature of grief, guilt and regret, anger and resentment, and navigating a world that expects you to "move on." I help clients honor their grief while finding ways to continue living, process complicated emotions including relief or ambivalence alongside sadness, develop language for what they're experiencing when words feel inadequate, and create meaningful rituals or practices that acknowledge loss while making space for what remains. My approach recognizes that grief isn't something to fix or get over—it's something to move through and integrate as part of your ongoing story.

Andrea Miller
Counselor/Therapist, NCC
In my therapeutic practice, I often utilize Narrative Therapy techniques to help clients navigate their experience of loss or grief by facilitating the exploration and reconstruction of their personal narratives surrounding the loss. Additionally, I integrate elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to assist clients in acknowledging their emotions, accepting their loss, and committing to actions that align with their values, fostering resilience and meaning-making in the grieving process. Drawing from Person-Centered Therapy principles, I provide a supportive and empathetic space for clients to express their emotions and process their grief at their own pace, honoring their unique journey towards healing and adjustment.

Taylor Allie
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC
In sessions, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques may be utilized to help individuals identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts related to their loss, such as guilt or self-blame. Alternatively, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) strategies could be incorporated to assist my clients in managing intense emotions associated with grief and developing effective coping skills. I am compassionate about my approach to provide a supportive environment where individuals can navigate their grief process while learning valuable tools to cope with their emotions and adapt to life changes.
