Grieving is a process of self-discovery and transformation, which ultimately puts us in touch with our own mortality.

Pre-Licensed Professional, LMSW
Grief doesn’t follow a timeline or look the same for everyone. Loss can affect your emotions, relationships, identity, routines, and sense of what life looks like moving forward. I offer space to process grief without pressure to “move on” or experience it in a particular way. Together, we can honor what you’ve lost, make room for the emotions that come with it, and explore how to carry your experience while continuing to live meaningfully.

Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
I provide compassionate support for individuals experiencing grief and loss, offering a space where you can process emotions without judgment or pressure. Together, we gently explore the impact of your loss and what it has meant for your life, while finding ways to cope that feel manageable and supportive. My approach is client-centered and paced according to your needs, honoring that grief is a deeply personal and non-linear experience. The focus is on emotional support, adjustment, and healing in a way that respects your unique process and relationship to what has been lost. If you’re looking for support during a time of grief, I invite you to reach out or explore my profile to learn more.

Psychologist, PhD
Grief can feel disorienting and deeply lonely, especially when life continues moving around you. Whether you are mourning the loss of a loved one, relationship, pregnancy, role, sense of self, or imagined future, grief can affect every part of life—relationships, sleep, identity, work, and emotional wellbeing. There is no “right” way to grieve, and painful emotions often arrive in unexpected ways. Therapy can offer a compassionate space to process loss, make meaning of difficult experiences, and feel less alone in what you are carrying.

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Death. The most universal of life experiences. So why are we afraid to talk about it? We use euphemistic language in an effort to . . . what exactly? Does imagining her in “a better place” take the pain away? What do we say when children ask if they can visit this place, or when the deceased will return home? And then the casseroles and phone calls taper off. Always too soon. Then people stop asking, as though their questions will bring her to mind and cause you to suffer. Don’t they know you think of her every day?
Grief doesn’t ever really go away; it changes over time. Just when you think you are coping better with the loss, the holidays arrive, or the one-year anniversary hits, and there you are, overwhelmed by difficult emotions once again. I would be honored to sit alongside you on this difficult, and often lonely, journey.
