Top grief and loss counseling therapists in Macon, GA
Grieving a loved one requires specialized support. In Macon, Headway's network of grief counselors uses evidence-based approaches like Complicated Grief Treatment and CBT to help you process loss, find closure, and rebuild. Sessions are flexible, covered by insurance, and some patients pay as low as $0.
Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what do have power over instead of craving control over what you don't. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Georgia with 20+ years of experience working with individuals and families in a variety of settings addressing issues relating to parenting, parent/child relationships, divorce, grief/loss, marital conflicts, behavior, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, communication, trauma, adjustment/life changes, etc.
I would describe my approach to therapy as eclectic, utilizing a variety of modalities to best serve the needs of my client. The modalities that are proven to be most useful are: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, Gestalt therapy, Solution-focused therapy, Rational emotive therapy, Dialectical Behavior therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing. It is my goal to help you to live your most fulfilling life by enabling you to be your true self. You will spend time exploring ways to grow and increase self-acceptance along with discussing the issues that you are dealing with. I will offer acceptance, empathy, and guidance as you work on personal growth and positive change.
As a dual holistic practitioner, I acknowledge that prioritizing and actualizing mental health wellness are essential keys to balance and stability in life. I applaud you for leaping and getting support for your healing or rediscovery journey. You have achieved the first major milestone!
You don’t have to navigate anxiety, depression, or difficult seasons of life on your own. Our work will create space to better understand what you’re experiencing while also considering how relationships, family dynamics, loss, identity, past experiences, and other life stressors may be connected to what you’re going through. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by persistent worry or sadness, working through relationship or family challenges, processing grief, or trying to make sense of experiences that have affected how you see yourself, we’ll work together to build greater understanding, emotional balance, and a stronger sense of direction.
Jami Rieffel, LMFT
Founder & Therapist, CoAuthored Therapy
I believe therapy is most powerful when it feels like a story we write together. I bring a collaborative, narrative-based approach to working with individuals, couples, and families. My goal is to create a space where clients feel both supported and empowered to re-author the stories that shape their lives.
I earned my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from National University, where I focused on systems theory and narrative practice. Over the years, I’ve worked with diverse populations supporting clients through challenges such as relationship transitions, trauma recovery, and identity exploration.
My names is Vashawn Mosley. I am a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP). I also have a Doctorate in Nursing Practice. I have greater than 16 years working in mental health, with greater than 5 years working as a PMHNP.
Hi, I'm Julie Mendizabal, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida. I'm bilingual and offer therapy in both English and Spanish (ofrezco terapia en español).
I specialize in helping individuals and couples feel heard, understood, and empowered. Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship struggles, or a life transition that's left you unsteady, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore what's happening and find lasting change. Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you're already carrying so much — so if you're feeling uncertain, stuck, or simply know that something needs to change, you're not alone, and you don't have to face it on your own.
I’ve spent years sitting with people at their lowest—through addiction, crisis, and the kind of pain that can make life feel unmanageable. That work taught me something I bring into every session now: nobody is “too much,” and no story is too messy. These days, I’m more focused on slower, steadier work. Whether you’re worn down by depression, gripping through stress, or finally ready to be honest about drinking or using, I’ll meet you where you are with steadiness, honesty, and compassion. You don’t need the right words yet; we’ll figure it out together.
