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.

Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
Over the years I have seen many individuals, couples, and families suffering from loss and grief. I also have assisted organizations whose staff are grieving the loss of a colleague or fellow employee through death or suicide. Needless to say, COVID19 has added to our losses and grief. Painful losses in life, if not dealt with and finally accepted, can contribute to problems in relationships later on, as addressed in my books on relationships (see "The Dance of Love" and other titles on Amazon). Mindfulness techniques and Guided Imagery with music as experienced in my free Zoom seminars, are helpful to grieving persons, and help them in the process of letting go and building resilience. Please feel free to call for further information and/or a consultation: 301-229-8000.

Monica Grey
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Grief doesn't follow a script, and it doesn't always look the way people expect it to. Whether you've lost a loved one, a relationship, your health, or a version of your life you thought you'd have, the emotional weight can feel disorienting. I provide a supportive, structured space to process what you're going through — without pressure to "move on" before you're ready. We'll work together to honor your experience while building the skills to carry it forward in a way that feels sustainable.

We recognize that grief is not a linear process to be "fixed," but a deeply personal experience that is often intertwined with cultural traditions, faith, and family roles.

We help you navigate the waves of mourning without becoming lost in them. We honor your need to remember and your right to heal, providing you with the tools to carry your loss while eventually finding a path toward renewed meaning and peace.

Shelby Willoughby
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
In my practice, I integrate a range of therapeutic modalities to support individuals experiencing loss or grief. Through art therapy and narrative therapy, I offer creative avenues for clients to express their emotions and process their experiences of loss. Additionally, I draw upon person-centered therapy and compassion focus therapy to provide a compassionate and empathetic space where clients can explore their grief journey at their own pace, while utilizing techniques from CBT and DBT to help them navigate through the challenging emotions and develop effective coping strategies.

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.

Sandra Lashley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Issues of loss and grief can be deeply painful and people are often surprised at how deeply they are affected by grief. It is a process to move through, not one to rush, and I have treated many patients who have experienced loss. It is ubiquitous.

Kimberly Turner-Frazier
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, LPC
Grief is a deeply personal journey, and there is no 'right' way to navigate the void left by a loss. Whether you are grieving a loved one, a relationship, or a significant life transition, I offer a compassionate space to honor your process. We will work through the complexities of your emotions, helping you find a way to carry your grief while eventually rediscovering meaning and hope.

Aysha DeSilva
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I support individuals navigating grief and loss, which can manifest as numbness, disconnection, intense sadness, anger, confusion, and feelings of isolation. I help clients uncover and address the underlying emotions associated with their grief through psychodynamic therapy, interpersonal therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and EMDR. These approaches facilitate processing loss and developing effective coping strategies.
Together, we can create a safe space to explore how grief impacts your life and how to carry it in a way that feels more manageable.
