Grief Therapy in Austin, Texas
Warm, grounded support for grief, loss, and everything that comes after.
You don’t have to move on.
You don’t have to be “doing better.”
And you don’t have to carry this alone.
At Wild Oak Therapy, we offer grief therapy for adults, children, and families who are living with loss and finding that it touches everything.
Whether your grief is new or decades old, clear or complicated, quiet or overwhelming, this is a place where it’s allowed to exist just as it is.
Schedule a free 15-minute consultation.
A gentle first step to finding the right support.
You may be here because:
Someone you love died, and the world expects you to be okay by now
Your grief doesn’t look like what others understand or validate
You’re struggling to put words or meaning to how you’re feeling
You’re functioning on the outside, but feel changed on the inside
Loss has stirred up anxiety, numbness, anger, or old wounds
You’re trying to support a grieving child and don’t know how
If any of this resonates, you’re not broken and you’re not doing grief wrong. Grief asks for care, not correction. We’re here to bear witness to your grief, to hold space with you, to gently walk with you.
Wild Oak Approach:
At Wild Oak Therapy, we don’t treat grief as something to resolve or get past.
We see grief as a natural, human response to love and loss—one that deserves time, space, and steady support.
Our approach to grief therapy is:
Warm and relational: you are met as a whole person, not a problem
Grounded in the nervous system: we move at a pace that feels safe
Deeply respectful: there is no timeline and no “right way” to grieve
We know that grief work is gentle, but it is not shallow.
What This Looks Like:
Talking, when words are available
Creating images or art when words aren’t available
Making space for emotions that feel too big or too quiet
Noticing how grief lives in your body
Helping children express grief through play and creativity
Integrating trauma-informed approaches when loss feels overwhelming (like EMDR)
You will never be pushed to share more than you’re ready for. You will never be told how you should feel.
Who You’ll Work With:
Our grief therapists are experienced in working with:
Adults navigating death, divorce, and life transitions
Children and teens processing loss
Grief layered with trauma, anxiety, or past experiences
Each clinician brings their own style, while sharing a common commitment to care that is attuned, thoughtful, and steady.
We’ll help you find the clinician who’s the right fit for you.

“Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable, can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone.” --Fred Rogers
