Grief Counseling

Grief Counseling Therapists in the Greater Denver Area and Across Colorado – Accepting New Clients

Grief is a deeply personal response to loss, whether from the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a major life change, or even the loss of health or identity. It can take many forms, including sadness, anger, numbness, guilt, confusion, or isolation. Some people experience prolonged or complicated grief that interferes with daily life, while others may feel uncertain about how to process their emotions or support others through loss. Common related struggles include depression, anxiety, sleep issues, and difficulty concentrating or reconnecting with life.

Therapy for grief offers a safe and compassionate space to express your emotions, reflect on your loss, and begin healing. Westside therapists use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR, and narrative therapy to help clients navigate the grieving process. Some may also integrate mindfulness techniques or existential therapy to support meaning-making. Whether you’re grieving a recent loss or struggling with unresolved grief from the past, therapy can provide the emotional tools, perspective, and support to begin moving forward at your own pace.

 

Appointments are available in person across the Greater Denver Area, including Arvada, Aurora, Lakewood, Westminster, and Littleton, or through secure online therapy statewide. All of our therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many are also credentialed with other insurance plans. You can browse available therapists by specialty, insurance, location, and age to find the right fit for your needs. You can also call us at (303) 986-4197 or email info@westsidebehavioral.com for personal assistance scheduling your first session.
