Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Grief doesn't make sense, it can be difficult to manage and throw us into places we didn't know existed. It's not often fair that others get to live their lives while yours might be falling apart. There are various kinds and stages of grief and some folks may be seeking help because they don't know how to feel while others feel too much. There's no right way to grieve; sometimes it can impact our lives unexpectedly. Consider booking a free 30-minute consult to explore more.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed grief and loss counseling for individuals experiencing the emotional impact of bereavement, complicated grief, life transitions, or the loss of a loved one, relationship, role, or meaningful life circumstance. Grief can affect emotional well-being, physical health, relationships, sleep, concentration, and overall functioning, often bringing waves of sadness, numbness, anxiety, anger, guilt, or emotional overwhelm.
Brad takes a holistic and compassionate approach to grief counseling, helping clients process loss in a safe and supportive environment at their own pace. Therapy provides space to explore the emotional pain of grief, honor the significance of what has been lost, and work through the complex emotions that often accompany mourning and adjustment.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support healing from both grief and any underlying trauma that may be activated by loss. Therapy focuses on restoring emotional balance, reducing distress, and helping clients gradually rebuild meaning, stability, and connection in their lives.
Grief is a deeply personal experience, and there is no single “right way” to heal. Brad’s approach is individualized, supportive, and non-judgmental, allowing clients to process loss in a way that respects their unique emotional needs, beliefs, and circumstances. Together, you will work toward understanding the impact of loss, integrating it into your life story, and finding ways to move forward without disconnecting from what mattered.
The goal of therapy is not to “get over” grief, but to help clients adapt, heal, and carry their loss in a way that allows for continued meaning, connection, and emotional well-being.
Healing is possible. With the right support, clients can move through grief while rebuilding hope, resilience, and a renewed sense of purpose and emotional balance.

John Burkin
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LMHC, LPCC, LCPC, CPL, Registered Member MBACP
To work with those who have lost is an honor. There is no greater pain than the pain of grief. It is a hole which cannot be filled but must still be closed. I work with clients using the Five Stages of Grief which in my belief are far more than the single words on a page. Elizabeth Kubler Ross left behind a body of research which gives us great insight into how we grieve not only the loss of a loved one, rather any loss. These stages apply to loss of a job/career, loss of a home, friendship or a pet. I will gladly work with you and share my experience to help you on your path.

Andrea Miller
Counselor/Therapist, NCC
In my therapeutic practice, I often utilize Narrative Therapy techniques to help clients navigate their experience of loss or grief by facilitating the exploration and reconstruction of their personal narratives surrounding the loss. Additionally, I integrate elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to assist clients in acknowledging their emotions, accepting their loss, and committing to actions that align with their values, fostering resilience and meaning-making in the grieving process. Drawing from Person-Centered Therapy principles, I provide a supportive and empathetic space for clients to express their emotions and process their grief at their own pace, honoring their unique journey towards healing and adjustment.
