Paulina Mendez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSWA, LCASA
Grief can feel disorienting and deeply personal, especially when there isn’t enough space for it in everyday life. Therapy offers a container where grief doesn’t need to be rushed, fixed, or made meaningful before you’re ready. I support clients in tending to loss with care, allowing grief to be held alongside memories, love, and the slow reshaping that follows.

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.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Grief is often handled in ways that feel rushed, minimized, or quietly avoided. People expect you to “be strong,” “move forward,” or make your loss more comfortable for them. But grief doesn’t work like that. It can be disorienting, consuming, unpredictable. It can show up as anger, numbness, guilt, relief, or moments where it hits without warning. And it’s not just about losing a person—grief can come from losing a relationship, a future you were counting on, a version of yourself, or a sense of stability you thought you had. When the world keeps moving like nothing happened, it can make you feel even more disconnected.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t try to soften grief into something more palatable. We take it seriously. We sit with you in it while also helping you understand how it’s impacting your body, your thoughts, and your day-to-day functioning. We support you in finding ways to stay connected—to yourself, to others, and to some sense of grounding—even when everything feels off. We also center the question of belonging, because grief often disrupts it—who feels safe, where you fit, and how you relate to the world now. And we name the cultural messages around grief that may be pressuring you to process it in a way that isn’t actually yours. This work is not about “closure” or “moving on.” It’s about learning how to carry what’s been lost without losing yourself in the process.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in supporting individuals through loss and grief, whether you’re navigating the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or another significant life change. Grief doesn’t follow a timeline and can show up in many ways—sadness, numbness, anger, or even feeling disconnected from yourself or others. Together, we create space to process your experience at your own pace while helping you stay grounded and supported along the way. My approach is compassionate and steady, integrating practical tools and mind-body awareness to help you carry your grief in a way that feels more manageable over time.

Mathews Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMFT, LPC
When anyone experiences loss or grief, it can be perplexing to navigate. It feels overwhelming as if it will never end. Every loss is unique. Everyone deals with loss differently. So therapy should be different and unique for each person as well. We work to make sure you are not alone in your grief, to walk with you through it, and address the specific needs you have. Grief and Loss Therapy enables you to connect with yourself, honor the loss you’ve experienced, and move through the loss or grief in a deep meaningful way.

Durham is home to Duke University and Duke University Medical Center, one of the leading psychiatric research and treatment centers in the country — an institution that deeply shapes the quality and sophistication of the local therapy community. The Research Triangle's concentration of academics, researchers, and healthcare professionals creates demand for therapists with intellectual depth and experience with high-achievement anxiety, identity work, and the stresses of competitive knowledge-economy careers. Durham also has a vibrant Black community with deep historical roots, and therapists offering culturally affirming care, racial identity work, and intergenerational trauma support are well represented. The city's progressive culture sustains strong demand for LGBTQ+-affirming therapists, and many practitioners integrate social-justice-informed approaches across their work.
