The Tristesse Grief Center

Group and Individual Counseling - Professional grief counseling and crisis support is provided to children, families, and adults who have experienced significant loss by mental health counselors with advanced training in grief and traumatic loss. Counseling sessions can include music therapy as well as art therapy when indicated. All counseling sessions are provided on a sliding fee scale. Our group counseling sessions include loss-specific groups (child loss, suicide loss, spouse loss, family group)that offer unique benefits related to processing grief with others who have had similar losses and decreasing isolation during the grieving process. All groups are free of charge.

Community engagement and education program - We recognized early on that areatherapists and mental health professionals often lacked grief specific training. In response, The Grief Center provides grief sensitivity training to businesses and community stakeholders and continuing education for licensed professionals who encounter grief and loss in the population they serve.

Grief and Outreach Intervention Program - Recognizing the environmental challenges and barriers to accessing grief counseling for many in our community, The Grief Center provides grief counseling and support inside school walls and community agencies through partnerships with community stakeholders. Our Healing Hearts programming in Tulsa Public Schools and other school districts across the Tulsa Metropolitan area is provided at no cost to students, families or school districts.
