Lacey Wilkins, MA, MS, LPC, NCC

Licensed Professional Counselor

Available for Online Therapy

Loss is a hard reality of life. Grief isn’t something to “get over", it’s something your body and mind learn to live alongside. My approach helps you stay connected to what was lost while reclaiming vitality in the present. I work gently with the nervous system to metabolize pain rather than suppress it, allowing grief to transform from something that crushes you into something that deepens you. I've lost loved ones close to me and know firsthand how isolating and painful it is. Maybe you have felt like no one understands or wants to listen. I offer a compassionate, safe space for you to process loss and grief on your own terms.

The death of a loved one is possibly the single most difficult experience that anyone can face. Seeking out counseling is a good way to handle the grief and loss that come after experiencing loss. Your counselor can help you explore the intense feelings of sadness and loss. Many people are expected to continue their normal daily activities after a loss, such as going to work and taking care of family. Therefore, they are unable to fully experience and explore their grief. Yet research has shown that the more deeply you can feel and understand your pain the better prepared you will be to move beyond your grief and re-enter normal life. Call today: (970) 227-2770.

Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate

Available for Online Therapy

Grief is not linear. After loss, the sadness comes unexpectedly. It waxes and wanes on its own. The only way to be with it is to let it move through you. If you try to bottle it up, it will come out later. It can also build in your system lead to other emotional difficulties. Grief is a natural process and it's important to let it happen. I'm here to support you in being with the grief in a compassionate, kind way.
