Description
This virtual support group is open to any adult navigating the painful journey of bereavement, whether you are coping with a sudden, recent loss or processing long-standing grief. There are no strict prerequisites or prior therapy requirements to join; all that is required is a willingness to share your experience and a commitment to maintaining a safe, confidential space for fellow members. Several insurance plans are accepted alongside private pay options to ensure the group remains accessible to those seeking community support.
Inside the group, sessions focus on connection, understanding, and remembrance. Participants gather weekly via a secure virtual platform to share their stories, explore the emotional and physical impacts of grief, and learn practical, therapeutic coping strategies to manage intense emotions. It is a structured yet gentle environment where your unique loss is honored, allowing you to process your pain alongside a community of peers who truly understand what you are experiencing.
Bryonna Sawyer is uniquely qualified to facilitate this group through her years of hospice experience and her practice at Bonafide Therapeutic Alliance, LLC. Her approach blends clinical expertise with deep empathy, providing a balanced space of professional guidance and authentic human connection. By utilizing evidence-based practices tailored specifically to bereavement, Bryonna helps members navigate the complexities of grief, ensuring every participant feels heard, validated, and equipped with the tools needed for lasting healing.
Group Therapist
At Bonafide Therapeutic Alliance, we believe therapy is most effective when it is collaborative, individualized, and grounded in genuine human connection. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, or feeling stuck, our clinicians work alongside you to develop practical skills, build resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change. We recognize that reaching out for support can be difficult, and our goal is to provide a welcoming, judgment-free environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered.
Our group practice is made up of compassionate clinicians with diverse backgrounds, specialties, and therapeutic approaches, allowing us to thoughtfully match clients with the provider who best fits their goals and preferences. We serve adolescents and adults through secure telehealth and currently welcome clients using Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare/Optum, as well as self-pay. Our clinicians utilize evidence-based treatments tailored to each individual's needs, including cognitive behavioral therapies, trauma-informed care, motivational interviewing, and other proven approaches that support lasting growth.
As a veteran-owned practice, we value authenticity, accountability, and the therapeutic relationship above all else. We understand that no two people—or two therapy journeys—are the same. Whether you're seeking relief from immediate challenges or pursuing long-term personal growth, Bonafide Therapeutic Alliance is committed to helping you find the right clinician and providing care that is compassionate, practical, and focused on helping you build a life that aligns with your values.
