Sarah Bellamy, MSW, LICSW

Sarah brings a compassionate, holistic approach to supporting adults navigating grief and loss. She understands that grief often shows up as deep exhaustion, overwhelm, anxiety, or feeling disconnected from oneself—and she meets clients in these tender moments with empathy, honesty, and steady encouragement. Drawing from her integrative, solutions-focused style, Sarah helps individuals explore how their loss has shaped their thoughts, emotions, and daily rhythms, while also guiding them toward healthier habits, grounding routines, and a renewed sense of purpose. She excels at walking alongside clients who are reflective, open to change, and ready to “do the work” of healing—creating a space where they can process the past, honor their experience, and gently move toward a life that feels meaningful again. With her whole-person perspective and strengths-based approach, Sarah supports clients in finding clarity, resilience, and a deeper connection to themselves as they navigate the complexities of grief.

Corinne McIntyre, MSW, LSWAIC

Corinne brings a deeply compassionate, strengths-based approach to her work with clients navigating grief and loss. She understands how grief can intensify feelings of shame, guilt, disconnection, or questioning one’s place in the world, and she meets clients in these vulnerable moments with unwavering warmth and respect. Corinne creates a safe, nonjudgmental space where teens and adults can explore the complex emotions that come with grieving—whether it’s the loss of a loved one, a relationship, a sense of identity, or a major life transition. Drawing on her clinical experience supporting clients through depression, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm, she helps individuals move through their grief at their own pace, develop insight, and reconnect with a sense of meaning and self-compassion. Her goal is to support clients in finding steadier ground, deeper understanding, and the possibility of healing after loss.

Kat Daczko, MS, LMHCA

Kat brings a compassionate, collaborative approach to supporting clients of all ages through grief and loss. With a foundation in DBT and trauma-informed care, she helps individuals navigate the intense emotions, identity shifts, and relational changes that often accompany grief. Kat draws on her experience in community mental health, school-based counseling, and play therapy to create a developmentally attuned, emotionally safe space—whether working with children, adolescents, or adults. She supports clients in making sense of their experiences, building practical coping skills, and reconnecting with meaning during times of profound transition.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is grief counseling?

Grief counseling is a supportive, therapeutic process that helps you navigate the emotional, physical, and relational changes that come with loss. A trained therapist offers tools, space, and guidance to help you understand your grief, express your emotions, and move toward healing at your own pace.

Do I need grief counseling?

You might benefit from grief counseling if your loss feels overwhelming, if daily life has become difficult, or if you feel stuck, isolated, or unsure how to cope. Grief support can help whether your loss is recent or something you’ve been carrying for years. There is no “right” reason to seek help—if you’re hurting, you deserve support.

How does grief counseling work?

Your therapist will work with you to understand your unique experience and goals. Sessions may include talking through emotions, learning coping tools, exploring the meaning of your loss, or finding ways to stay connected to your loved one. Therapy is always individualized—there is no one-size-fits-all approach.

hat happens during a session?

During a session, you’ll have a safe and compassionate space to share what you’re going through. Your therapist may guide you in reflection, offer grounding techniques, help you process painful emotions, or explore thoughts and memories connected to your loss. You set the pace, and your therapist walks beside you.

How long does grief therapy usually last?

Grief therapy looks different for everyone. Some people find relief in a few months, while others prefer longer-term support as they move through different stages of healing. Your therapist will help you determine the frequency and duration that best supports your needs.

Is grief counseling different from general therapy?

Yes. While general therapy addresses a wide range of emotional or relational concerns, grief counseling focuses specifically on the unique experience of loss—whether from death, divorce, illness, life transitions, or other significant changes. It is centered on honoring your connection, understanding your grief, and integrating the loss into your life.

Do you offer virtual appointments?

Yes. We offer both in-person and virtual sessions for individuals, couples, families, teens, and children across Washington. Virtual appointments make it easy to get care from the comfort of your home.

What types of loss do you support?

We support clients experiencing all forms of loss, including:

  • Death of a loved one
  • Miscarriage, stillbirth, or fertility struggles
  • Divorce or separation
  • Loss of health or mobility
  • Job loss or major life transitions
  • Trauma-related loss
  • Loss due to addiction or overdose

No loss is “too small” or “not enough.” If it matters to you, it matters to us.

How soon after a loss should someone start grief counseling?

There’s no perfect timing. Some people seek help immediately, while others come months or years later. If your emotions feel overwhelming, if you feel stuck, or if you simply want compassionate support as you process, it’s an appropriate time.
