Grief Counseling Atlanta – Kind Help for Life After Losing Someone
Grief can be a very private experience. Whether it’s the passing of someone you love, the loss of a relationship, your career or something of yourself, the loss has the potential to change your life
My name is Elaine Latimer-Tandy, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in grief therapy in Atlanta and also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP-II).
At Living Transformations, I provide grief counseling to assist you in learning ways to cope with the pain, confusion, and overwhelming emotions experienced after a loss.
There is no "right way" to grieve a loss. We all grieve differently—but no one should grieve alone. That's why I've established a supportive and non-judgmental environment for healing through one-to-one sessions and grief support groups in Atlanta, GA.
What Is Grief Counseling?
Grief counseling is not just sitting around and talking about sadness, but it's about honoring your loss, understanding why you feel that way, and finding new ways to go on without forgetting what's important to your well-being. As a grief counselor in Georgia, I can guide you through looking at the many facets of your pain while creating a safe space for healing.
My goal is not to rush your process, but to be with you as you begin to accept your emotions, recover your stability, and find meaning in life following the death of a loved one.
Who Can Benefit from Grief Counseling?
If you are lost, numb, overwhelmed, or stuck in your grief, grief counseling can assist. Some individuals seek help immediately after a loss, while others may not seek help for months or even years after. There is no deadline for healing, and it is never too early to begin
You may gain healing from our services if:
- You have lost a loved one and feel like you cannot manage.
- You are experiencing a significant life change, for example, divorce, loss of employment, or separation.
- You feel disconnected, angry, sad, or scared in ways that don't make sense.
- You struggle to explain your sorrow to friends or relatives.
- You need assistance coping with traumatic or acute loss.
As a trauma-informed therapist, I provide specialized grief therapy in Georiga for individuals who have experienced sudden, traumatic, or complicated loss—such as suicide, overdose, or sudden death.

Grief Support Groups Atlanta GA – Finding Connection in Community
Sometimes, the best healing happens in a circle. That’s why I provide grief support groups in a community where people can gather, speak, and know they are not alone. Group sessions are held via video with a combination of open sharing and guided activities. Each session is structured to help you build connections, share healing, and become comfortable with your feelings. You will learn to listen to others who share your pain and understand more about your loss as well.
Our grief support groups Atlanta GA meet weekly, and we keep groups small so all can talk and connect more readily. If you need to discuss your emotions or simply listen, we welcome and thank you for visiting.
