With a background in grief, trauma, and emotional wellness, she creates a calm, supportive space where you can process loss without pressure or judgment. Tasherra believes healing happens in community — one honest conversation at a time — and brings both clinical skill and genuine empathy to every group she leads.

Got Questions?​

​

Is this therapy?
It’s a clinician-facilitated, skills-focused support group. It’s not a substitute for individual therapy, but many participants do both.

​

What if I miss a week?
You’ll receive the week’s handouts and a brief recap. No make-ups; please attend at least 4 of 6.

​

Can I use insurance?
This group is cash-pay only. You may use HSA/FSA. We’ll provide an itemized receipt.

​

I’m not sure I’m “grieving the right way.”
There’s no one right way. You’re welcome here whether your loss was recent or years ago.

​

Is this faith-based?
We’re clinically grounded and inclusive. You’re free to bring your beliefs; we won’t prescribe them.

*​We welcome all genders, cultures, and family structures. Please tell us what helps you participate—seating, sensory, language, or tech needs.
