Getting Started

  • Evolving Through Grief offers grief-focused support groups, caregiver support groups, life transition support, and educational resources through the Life After Loss brand.

    The focus of this work is no longer individual or couples therapy. Instead, Lindsay’s work centers on helping people find support, language, connection, and steadiness through group-based care and grief education.

  • You do not need to have everything figured out before reaching out.

    Some people know exactly which group they are interested in. Others simply know they are grieving, overwhelmed, caring for someone, adjusting to a major life change, or trying to make sense of a season they did not expect.

    When you complete the consultation form, you will be asked to select the group or area of support you are most interested in. If you are unsure, you can choose “Not sure yet,” and Lindsay will help you determine the best next step.

  • Yes. A brief consultation helps make sure the group is a good fit for your needs, timing, and goals.

    The consultation is also a chance for you to ask questions about the group format, what to expect, and whether the space feels right for you.

  • The consultation is a short conversation focused on fit.

    You may talk about what brought you here, what kind of support you are looking for, and which group you are interested in joining. Lindsay may also ask a few questions to better understand your current needs and whether the group would be supportive for you at this time.

    The consultation is not a therapy session. It is a starting point for deciding whether a group or educational resource is the right next step.

Support Groups

  • Current and upcoming groups may include:

    • Grief and Loss Support Group

    • Caregivers Support Group

    • Motherhood Support Group

    • Life Transitions and Grief Education

    • Additional Life After Loss workshops or professional education offerings

    Availability may change throughout the year.

  • Some groups may be structured as therapeutic support groups, while others may be educational or support-focused.

    Each group page will explain the purpose, format, and expectations for that specific offering. If you are unsure whether a group is therapeutic, educational, or supportive in nature, you can ask during your consultation.

  • Groups are designed to provide a grounded, compassionate space for reflection, education, and connection.

    Depending on the group, you may have opportunities to:

    • Learn about grief, caregiving, or life transitions

    • Reflect on your own experience

    • Hear from others who are navigating something similar

    • Practice tools for coping, communication, and self-understanding

    • Explore how past experiences, relationships, and patterns may connect to the present

    You are not expected to share more than feels right for you.

  • You will never be forced to share something before you are ready.

    Participation matters, but participation can look different for different people. Some people process out loud. Others need time to listen, reflect, and slowly find their voice.

    Lindsay works to create a space where people can participate with care, choice, and respect.

  • Confidentiality is an important part of group work.

    Group members are expected to respect the privacy of others and not share identifying details outside of the group. Lindsay will review confidentiality expectations at the beginning of the group.

    Because groups involve multiple people, confidentiality cannot be guaranteed in the same way as individual care. However, clear expectations are set to support safety, respect, and trust.

  • Yes.

    Grief can come from many kinds of loss, including death, caregiving changes, illness, relationship changes, identity shifts, parenting transitions, relocation, aging, estrangement, or a life that no longer looks the way you thought it would.

    You do not need to justify your grief in order to seek support.

  • If it feels like loss, it matters.

    Many people minimize their grief because they think someone else has it worse, their situation is too complicated, or their loss does not fit a traditional definition. You are allowed to need support even if your grief is hard to explain.

Registration and Payment

  • Start by completing the consultation form. You will be asked to select the group you are interested in joining.

    After your consultation, Lindsay will let you know whether the group is a good fit and provide next steps for registration, payment, and any required forms.

  • Group pricing may vary depending on the type of group, length, format, and number of sessions.

    Please visit the Payment and Registration page for current pricing, or reach out through the consultation form if you have questions about a specific group.

  • For some services, a superbill may be available upon request. A superbill is a document you can submit to your insurance provider for possible out-of-network reimbursement.

    Reimbursement is not guaranteed. Please contact your insurance provider directly to ask whether group services are covered under your plan.

  • Because group spaces are limited, cancellation policies may vary by offering.

    Before you register, you will receive the payment, cancellation, and attendance expectations for the specific group. Please review these carefully before completing registration.

Fit and Safety

  • Groups can be supportive, but they are not crisis services.

    If you are in immediate danger, thinking about harming yourself or someone else, or need urgent mental health support, please call 911, go to your nearest emergency room, or contact a crisis line in your area.

    If you are in the United States, you can call or text 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline.

  • Yes. Many people attend a support group while also working with an individual therapist.

    Groups can offer connection, education, and shared understanding, while individual therapy can provide more personalized support. If you already have a therapist, you may want to talk with them about whether a group would be a helpful addition.

  • That is okay.

    You may start by reading the resources, exploring the Life After Loss materials, or scheduling a consultation to ask questions. Support does not have to begin all at once.
