Grief & Trauma Therapy for Adults
Grief and trauma can be like heavy chains weighing us down, making it feel impossible to live forward. The pain cuts deep, leaving scars that seem like they’ll never heal. You might feel like you’re stuck in a never-ending cycle of despair, like you’re permanently broken and there’s no way out.
Life can be incredibly challenging. Sometimes, it throws us curve balls that leave us feeling lost, overwhelmed, and unsure of how to live forward. If you’re here, chances are you’re grappling with the weight of grief and trauma, and you’re searching for a beacon of hope in the darkness.

We’ve seen firsthand how it can impede your ability to function in your day-to-day life, leaving you feeling like there’s no light at the end of the tunnel.

Who We Are
At Grief Relief, LLC, we offer therapy designed to provide you with the support and guidance no matter where you are in your journey. Our therapists specialize in helping adults navigate the complex emotions of grief, loss and trauma.
Grief and Loss Therapy
Grief and loss therapy is a vital component of the healing process, which is a journey that everyone experiences differently. It’s important to recognize that there’s no time limit on how long your grief should last. It’s okay to feel sad, angry, or even numb. This period of grief may cause you to experience raw, emotional pain that it feels like too much.
Whether the death of a loved one happened a few days or years ago, these thoughts may sound familiar:
- “Am I grieving the ‘right’ way?”
- “I can’t believe they’re really gone.”
- “Am I grieving too long?”
- “I miss their voice.”
- “Will I ever be happy again?”
- “I feel guilty when I’m happy and having fun.”
Many people can get through the grieving process on their own with the support of loved ones, but that’s not always enough. And that’s okay! Sometimes grief is more complicated due to the circumstances of the loss such as death by suicide, overdose death, a tragic accident, a sudden unexpected death all can challenge our coping skills. The level of distress you experience related to any loss is worthy of grief and worthy of professional help if you are struggling to live forward with your life.
Grief Doesn’t Always involve Death
The idea that grief may not always have to do with the death of someone you know may be a new concept to you. Although it may sound foreign, you could experience similar deep and negative feelings with any of the following:
- Losing a job
- Moving to a different or unfamiliar area
- Going through a divorce
- Ending a friendship or romantic relationship
- Transitioning to new phases in life
When you’re going through the most challenging and dark times of your life, it’s important that you have the support you need to navigate this journey. Grief therapy provides a safe space for you to explore your feelings and learn healthy coping skills.
Whether you’re struggling with complicated grief, feeling overwhelmed by your emotions, or simply in need of a listening ear, our therapists are here to support you. You don’t have to navigate this difficult time alone. With the support of grief and loss therapy, you can find hope for the future.
Trauma Therapy
Trauma can leave deep scars on the soul, making it difficult to trust others, feel safe, or even function in your day-to-day life. Simply put, trauma is an experience that causes stress and fear for an individual. Regardless of the specifics, all traumatic events present a threat to the safety, health, and well-being of an individual.
Here are some examples of traumatic events:
- Being in a car accident
- Experiencing live-altering health issues
- Witnessing or being the victim of a crime
- Being in an abusive relationship whether it’s with a partner, friend, or family member
- Having a particularly difficult childbirth or experiencing a miscarriage
- Experience racial, sexual, or religious discrimination
- Going through a natural disaster (hurricane, tornado, mudslide, or wildfire)
Overcoming these traumatic events is possible. These experiences won’t shackle you forever. Our trauma therapy services help you reclaim your life and find peace in the midst of chaos. With the help of our therapists, you can find hope, healing, and a renewed sense of resilience.
At Grief Relief, LLC, we specialize in trauma therapy for adults throughout Pennsylvania. Our therapists use techniques like Eye movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a highly effective therapy approach for processing traumatic memories and finding healing. EMDR significantly reduces symptoms of trauma in just a few sessions, offering hope to those who have experienced the darkest moments of their lives.
Supporting Our First Responders: The FRAP Program
We provide trauma therapy for first responders in Cumberland County, PA, and the surrounding areas. As a former first responder herself, Lisa S. Zoll, the founder of Grief Relief, LLC, understands the unique challenges that come with jobs on the front line. We’re proud to partner with On the Job and Off in the First Responder Assistance Program (FRAP).
FRAP is one of the first programs of its kind, focusing on creating relationships with nearby counties to provide funding for therapy sessions for first responders. Through this program, first responders can get free EMDR therapy sessions through the state. First responders in Cumberland County and beyond can access therapy sessions with Lisa S. Zoll and her team of therapists. These sessions are specifically tailored to the unique needs of first responders, providing a confidential, safe, and supportive environment for healing and growth.
