Dr. Cara Bussell, PhD, LLC
Psychologist
Grief can follow many kinds of losses, including the death of a loved one, changes in health, the end of a relationship, or other major life transitions. I offer therapy to help adults process their grief at their own pace, without judgment or pressure to move on. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and tailored to each person’s unique experience. Together, we can create space for your emotions, explore meaning, and support healing. If you are feeling overwhelmed by loss or struggling to adjust, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation.

Dr. Jennifer Baumgardner
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Sometimes the grief of a loss is overwhelming. Grief is seen as a normal response to loss. Coaching and teaching are used to help the grieving person learn how to cope with the loss. Therapy also helps the grieving person to come to grips with changes in life that are part of the loss. There may always be sadness at the loss but there can be resolution.

Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Leaving a narcissistic relationship involves a grief that most people around you won't understand — because you're grieving someone who is still alive, a relationship that may have never been what you thought it was, and a future you planned that no longer exists. This is disenfranchised grief: loss that society doesn't fully recognize or validate, which means you rarely get the support, acknowledgment, or space to mourn that you would receive after a more conventional loss. No one sends flowers. No one tells you to take time off work. Many people in your life may even question why you're grieving at all, especially if they witnessed how he treated you.
But the grief is real. There is grief for the years you invested. Grief for who you were before the relationship changed you. Grief for the family structure your children will no longer have. Grief for the partner you thought you had — who may never have truly existed. And often, grief layered with confusion because you're mourning someone who hurt you, which makes it feel illegitimate even to yourself.
I work with mothers navigating the complex, non-linear grief of leaving or healing from narcissistic and emotionally abusive relationships, using a framework that specifically honors disenfranchised grief as a real and significant loss. This includes the grief of a high-conflict divorce, the ambiguous loss of a relationship with someone who was never fully emotionally present, and the slow process of rebuilding identity after that loss. Grief in this context requires a therapist who understands the psychology of narcissistic relationships — not just general bereavement support.

Dr. Steven J. Hanley
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Grief creates its own schedule. There is no one "right" way to go through the process. I may never know the true pain that that loss has brought you, but I am committed to helping your tell your grief story. Putting words to your pain can be very liberating.
