Alyssa Smyth
Psychologist, PhD
Experiencing loss or grief can quietly affect many parts of life, from mood and sleep to concentration and emotional resilience. While others may expect a quick recovery, grief often unfolds in complex and deeply personal ways. I provide a supportive space to process loss, understand its impact, and gradually find ways to move forward while honoring what has been lost.

Be BOLD Psychology and Consulting
Psychologist, Ph.D
Grief is one of the most painful, isolating experiences — and it’s also something we all go through. We support clients in navigating the messy, nonlinear process of grief after death, breakups, estrangement, or life transitions. We don’t rush your healing or try to “fix” it. We simply sit with you in it — with care, honesty, and deep compassion.

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.
