Grief Therapists in Campbell, CA

Grief can feel isolating, even though you may be surrounded with people who wish you well. When grieving a loss , it may be difficult to talk with friends or family members about your experience. I invite you to share your emotions and will provide a space for you to find your bearings as you begin your healing journey. To support you I bring an open heart and work with expressive arts, nature therapy, process therapy and mindfulness. Moving beyond words through breath, art and nature allows us to mourn our losses and begin to heal.

Are you experiencing a difficult time in your or your children's life? Are you ready to face a problem that has been nagging at you for a while? I am here to help. I understand it can be difficult to reach out for help. Taking the first step is never easy. Together we will formulate a plan to best handle whatever issue is troubling you. I have extensive experience working with children and teens. My specialties include child and teen trauma, depression, anxiety, anger, and grief . I also enjoy working with adults and families around issues such as parenting, transitions, grief , and depression issues.

Welcome! Being vulnerable and open to change is not easy, but you are in the right place. I am Bianca Jamerson (she/her/hers), Associate Clinical Social Worker. I have experience working with a diverse client base such as adults couples, families, and transitional aged youth (ages 16-21), Veterans, older adults, adults living with HIV, and hospice patients and their families. As a therapist I offer an empathetic presence and tools to cope with various life stressors including: self-esteem, depression, anxiety, family and relationship conflict, intimate partner violence, divorce/break-ups, trauma, grief and loss ,

Grief can result from many types of loss and life transitions: death of a loved one, loss of a relationship, miscarriage, abortion, job loss , aging, loss of our sexual selves. Walking beside those who are in the process of grief , I help them find compassion and wholeness in their life. I see clients dealing with grief as a normal and necessary process as well as those with complicated grief , anticipatory grief and trauma. Understanding the nature of grief , it is possible to get through this time of confusion, sadness, anger & loneliness to a place of hope and inner peace.

I arrive at the intersection of compassion & collaboration as I respectfully guide my clients to explore new levels of awareness, self-empowerment, flow, & understanding. Working towards cognitive flexibility, wholeness, and healing. Using empathy & unconditional positive regard as a foundation, I may occasionally challenge you to bring forward awareness with a more direct approach. I welcome the motivation or perhaps ambivalence that comes along with seeking treatment. There is no perfection in the layers that define us, just a journey of experiences & lessons that await discovery, growth and honor.

Your soul is ready to heal. Too many of us are suffering in isolation, with complex challenges and big feelings that we were never meant to carry on our own. Bring me your grief , your sadness, your anxiety and your overwhelm. Bring me your wounded parts, and let's hold them close, together. Once you have a place where you feel seen, heard and held without judgment, you naturally begin to heal. Allow me to be that place for you. I love supporting people with grief and loss , life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, and issues around self-worth and self-esteem. I am so glad you found me.

I specialize in supporting new and expecting families experiencing prenatal/postpartum depression and anxiety, relationship and attachment issues, birth trauma, and loss . The journey into motherhood invites us to experience intense love and joy, but it also touches our most raw and vulnerable parts. We may experience worries of not being good enough or fears of losing our identity. I understand how difficult it can be to take time for yourself when you feel overwhelmed and sleep deprived. But I also know that taking the time now to increase self-awareness can move you beyond survival and transform your experience of motherhood.

The transition to parenthood can be a beautiful and challenging time. I assist new parents in navigating the road ahead. Many `parents are surprised by anxiety, depression, or discord in a relationship during the perinatal time. Other people have been left with difficult, even traumatic feelings after a birth did not go as planned. Other families struggle with grief related to loss and infertility. We are told this is a time of joy, however many of us don't feel joyful and guilt or shame manifests. I have a passion for building a relationship with individuals or couples adjusting to this new phase of life.

I will work with you from a systemic perspective, integrating various therapeutic approaches to accommodate your individual and/or family's needs. I strive to provide a safe and supportive environment and I will collaborate with you to uncover what is at the root of your thoughts and feelings and will help you learn ways to cope and heal.

In many ways good psychotherapy is like a successful remodel, frequently resulting in a stronger and more spacious sense of one's self, lovely new rooms, remarkable views and better access to the world outside (and in). The journey of self-discovery takes courage, but increasing one's awareness of old limitations and obstacles, and developing the ability to gently and carefully dismantle and rebuild where necessary is incredibly rewarding -- often beyond what we can imagine. I believe that it's a collaborative journey on which we embark, moving together towards creating a more fulfilling and rewarding life for you.

These can be stressful and isolating times. I am here to listen and help you to experience more joy, less anxiety and depression. I specialize in grief counseling. Grief is inherent in many life transitions; such as divorce, retirement, empty nest, job loss and the loss of a loved one (human or pet). If you are experiencing conflict in your relationship, I can help you as well. Please reach out.

I bring a compassionate and mindfulness-based approach to support clients in creating a new experience of themselves whether they are navigating life transitions or struggling with anxiety, depression, stress or loss . I view healing from a holistic perspective and draw on a variety of practices and orientations to meet my clients where they are. This includes evidence-based interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as Dialectal Behavior Therapy. I also enjoy bringing in playful and experiential practices to help shift clients out of their head and into more present ways of connecting with their authentic selves.

I view the therapeutic process as a journey I travel with each of my clients. I aim to provide an open and nonjudgmental environment, which helps facilitate the development of insight into oneself and experiences with others. By providing a sense of acceptance and understanding, I aid each client in realizing their inner strength to enact the change desired in their lives.

Seeking help can be scary and exciting, and it takes a lot of bravery and courage to take the initial step. You may be feeling like you are depressed and anxious due to your trauma. I aim to meet you where you are mentally and emotionally and help you grow, learn skills, and adapt to new changes. We can work together to identify your goals and needs and address the emotional and behavioral challenges you experience.

Welcome to my psychotherapy practice! Each individual has within them the power to begin to heal from mental health challenges and at times needs support in navigating the process. In being that support for you, I try to help you heal and uncover a life that you desire to live. In my practice, I provide a safe and compassionate environment free from judgment. I work with you to help you recognize your own strengths and innate insight about yourself. In looking at the self through therapy, we can discover parts of us that have yet to emerge or have been forgotten, as well as heal emotionally from pain and mental health challenges.
