Loss or Grief
Alabaster Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Grief is one of the most profound and personal experiences a person can go through, and there is no right or wrong way to carry it. At Alabaster Counseling, we hold space for girls and women who are navigating loss in all of its forms, whether that is the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a miscarriage, the loss of a dream, or any other experience that has left your heart feeling broken and your world feeling different than it once was. We understand that grief does not follow a timeline, and we will never ask you to move faster than you are ready to. With warmth, patience, and evidence-based care, we walk gently alongside you as you process your pain, honor what you have lost, and slowly find your way toward healing and hope again.

Loss or Grief
Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Grief can follow the loss of a person, relationship, role, or hoped-for future, and it often shows up in ways that are unpredictable or hard to name. Many women find themselves trying to keep functioning while carrying waves of sadness, numbness, or disorientation. In our work together, we focus on creating space to process what has changed, integrating the loss into your ongoing life, and helping you reconnect with a sense of steadiness and meaning at your own pace.

Loss or Grief
Alton Wampler
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
From an Internal Family Systems perspective, grief is understood as a natural response carried by vulnerable parts that hold deep attachment, loss, and longing. Protective parts may try to manage this pain through numbing, distraction, or over-functioning to prevent overwhelm. Therapy helps clients access Self to gently witness and care for grieving parts, allowing the loss to be integrated with compassion rather than avoided.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hey Survivor, are you tired of feeling guilty and overwhelmed all the time? Everyone else seems so together and you're stuck battling your past? I get it. My name is Rebecca Castle-Waller and I help badass women with trauma become present in their lives and in their relationships, so you can actually enjoy this life you've built.
Many of my clients grew up in chaotic and unstable homes where from a young age they started taking care of others. Making meals, waking their parents up for work, getting their siblings off to school. From there, you went on to take care of your partner and your kiddos while also working hard to keep everything running smoothly. Now with work and relationships and family drama and life you feel constantly stressed out and like you should be doing more. Oh, and you're doing all of this while facing nightmares, flashbacks, numbness, random waves of anger, and the like. Who's taking care of you?
Let's give you a space where you can be your messy, imperfect self so you can finally take care of you. It's time to heal your trauma, you've built an amazing life and you deserve to actually live it.
