Seattle, Washington therapist: Matthew Wolfe, licensed mental health counselor
Grief

Matthew Wolfe

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, MHP
Grief and loss is an inevitable part of the human experience and I believe reflects the love and investment we had in the person, pet, relationship, or plan that is no longer available to us. They can be really tough experiences to navigate and can look really different from person to person. There's no one right way through it, there are many.

Grief

Dr. Danielle Watkins at Sound Wellness Counseling PLLC

This work provides a compassionate space to process feelings such as sadness, anger, guilt, confusion, or numbness at your own pace. Counseling helps clients understand the grieving process, develop healthy coping strategies, and find meaningful ways to honor their loss while gradually adapting to life changes.

Phoenix, Arizona therapist: Dr. Janelle Louis, psychiatric nurse practitioner
Grief

Dr. Janelle Louis

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, ND, PMHNP-BC
Grief changes you. In my approach to addressing loss or grief, I help you work through your experiences with compassion. Through our sessions, you’ll learn how to process your pain, honor your loved one's memory, and navigate your own life as it shifts. Sometimes we have to grieve something that never was, but it's important to keep in mind that healing doesn’t necessarily mean forgetting. Instead, it means cherishing what once was and finding a way to pivot and adapt to a different phase of life, and I'd be honored to walk with you through it.
