Loss or Grief
Hannah Muetzelfeld
Psychologist, PhD
I believe that grief and loss manifests from many experiences. It might be the loss of a loved one, an important relationship ending, a new life transition, or mourning the loss of an imagined future. I've found that allowing ourselves to sit with the grief can help us process it. Allowing your grief to be witnessed can be powerful and healing. Grief often shows up in unexpected ways, and there is no “right” way to move through it. I work to honor each person's unique grieving process, holding space with compassion, patience, and care.

Loss or Grief
Christy A McCornack
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Loss is a daily part of our lives. How much we grieve a loss depends on how much we value what or who we have lost. Grief does not just come when we lose a loved one, but can also come when we experience a significant shift in how we view the world or when we experience a significant life transition. The benefit of allowing yourself to move through a grief process is that it can give you great insight into what you value and why you value it. Grief can be a wonderful teacher.

Loss or 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.

When specializing in loss and grief treatment, I focus on supporting individuals as they navigate the emotional pain and adjustment that follow the death of a loved one or other significant losses. 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. The goal of therapy is not to “move on,” but to learn how to move forward while fostering support, resilience, and hope.

Loss or 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.

Loss or Grief
Dawnn R. Meiers
Psychologist, Psy.D.
"There's bounty, yes; but there's loss and sorrow too: like a garden, like a life." This quote from a published collection of letters between two nature-loving poets echoes a life perspective I revisit regularly. In our work together, I'll hold space so you can acknowledge, honor, and process experiences of grief and loss. Because when we open up to the inevitable pain of our human lives, we're also saying yes to the possibility of joy and connection.

Loss or Grief
Weston Pew
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LCPC
Grief, though painful, is a transformative process that requires time and care to heal. It can feel like an amputation, leaving you to question your identity and how to move forward in the wake of loss. Healing from grief involves accepting its presence, and in doing so, we can then truly appreciate life. I offer an integrative approach to grief healing, utilizing Narrative Therapy to reframe your grief story, Internal Family Systems (IFS) to foster self-compassion, Somatic Therapy to release stored tension, and Existential/Spiritual Inquiry to explore grief's deeper meanings and possibilities. Grief, when tended with care, can lead to profound personal growth and a deeper connection to life. This journey is not one you need to walk alone; support and understanding are crucial for healing. Reach out for a free consultation and take the first step toward transforming your grief into a source of strength and resilience.

Seattle's tech economy — driven by Amazon, Microsoft, and a dense startup ecosystem — has made burnout, imposter syndrome, and the social costs of rapid wealth inequality prominent themes in local therapy. The "Seattle Freeze" — a widely noted phenomenon of difficulty forming close friendships — means therapists here frequently address loneliness, social anxiety, and the challenge of building genuine community in an outwardly welcoming but emotionally reserved city. Seattle's progressive culture sustains strong demand for LGBTQ+-affirming therapists, neurodiversity specialists, and practitioners working with race, identity, and social justice themes. UW Medicine and Swedish Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources alongside one of the most therapist-dense cities in the Pacific Northwest.
