Grief
Francis A. Bax
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, LMHC, LPC, CASAC-Master
There are times that we lose family, friends or pets due to death or separation. There are also times that we can't reach our goals in our lives and careers that are as much of a loss as death or dying. We explore those triggers to grief and come up with the means to accept losses.

Grief
Creative Now Therapy, Cris Maria Fort Garcés
Registered Psychotherapist, LCAT, ATR-BC, Gestalt Psychotherapy Certified, Developmental Somatic Psychotherapy Certified, Hakomi Somatic Practitioner
Loss or grief can feel like being lost in a landscape you no longer recognize, where old routines and comforts no longer fit. I support clients moving through loss or grief by offering a compassionate, body-centered approach that honors both the ache and the love beneath it. Together, we create space for all that surfaces—tears, numbness, anger, memories—and help you find your own rhythms of healing. Through somatic therapy, ritual, and deep listening, I guide you in honoring your losses and gently rebuilding trust in life after heartbreak.

Grief
Yuanfei Zhang
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Grief work is some of the most meaningful work I do. I don't believe in rushing anyone through their pain. Instead, I hold space for whatever grief looks like for each person, and help them find ways to carry their loss while still moving forward in life.

Grief
Dr Jody Eiser
Therapist, Doctorate in Psychology
Grief is not something to be “fixed,” but something to be understood and carried in a way that feels more manageable over time. Through a trauma-informed lens and a focus on trauma endurance, I support individuals in navigating the emotional, relational, and identity shifts that often follow loss, allowing for integration rather than avoidance.
