Grief and Loss Counseling
Receive compassionate support for healing after loss.
At Sierra Oak Counseling, we provide grief and loss counseling in Pleasanton, CA, for adults, children, and caregivers navigating the emotional pain of loss.
Whether you are grieving the death of a loved one, a relationship, or a significant life transition, you don’t have to go through it alone.
Our licensed grief therapist provides a supportive and nonjudgmental space to help you process your grief, find meaning, and move forward with resilience.
Grief impacts the mind, body, and spirit.
Our grief therapy services support individuals experiencing:
- Death of a parent, partner, spouse, or loved one, and divorce, separation, or relationship loss.
- Caregiver stress and anticipatory grief, and childhood grief, including loss due to death or pet loss
- Life transitions, identity loss, or retirement
We specialize in grief counseling for adults, child grief therapy, and caregiver grief support throughout the Tri-Valley area, including Pleasanton, Dublin, Walnut Creek, San Ramon, and Livermore.
How can grief therapy help?
Grief therapy is not about “moving on,” but learning how to live alongside loss. Through individual grief counseling, clients often experience reduced anxiety and emotional overwhelm and improved coping skills for grief triggers.
Clients receive support throughout anniversaries and holidays, experiencing healing from unresolved or complicated grief.
Through therapy, you can reconnect with your purpose, values, and meaning, allowing you to move forward.
Our approach honors your unique grieving process while providing practical tools for emotional regulation and healing.
Child grief counseling is available.
Children often express grief through behavior rather than words. We offer play-based grief therapy for children experiencing:
- Loss of a parent, grandparent, or caregiver
- Pet loss and early childhood grief
- Car accident and changes in school
Our child grief counseling supports emotional expression, attachment, and healing in a safe and nurturing environment.
