Grief and Loss Consultation and Supervision
The Transcending Model of Grief and Loss is designed to help counselors recognize the spaces that grief can bring people to, as well as how to navigate those spaces. It is a way to conceptualize the process that loss entails for integration. Grief is not a problem to solve, but a human experience that we need to join each other in. This model is not a map in that it spells out a step by step guide on how to resolve the pain from grief, but rather a framework to help the clients recognize and figure out how to navigate their personal grief journey. Drs. Katie Atkins and Sonya Lorelle are available for group and individual supervision or consultation for counselors who would like to discuss clinical aspects of applying the TMGL model with clients. Contact us to learn more.

Play Therapy Supervision
Dr. Sonya Lorelle is a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor and provides supervision for those seeking the RPT credential. Her play theoretical orientation is Adlerian Play Therapy. This is a holistic approach that allows me to build the relationship, explore the client’s lifestyle, help the child gain insight, and then reeducate and reorient using new behaviors based on these insights. She believes that behavior has a purpose, and it is important to understand what the child is trying to accomplish, often through the mistaken goals from being discouraged. I’ve also been trained in modalities of sandtray, treating children experiencing trauma, and Level 1 Theraplay. Contact Sonya at dr.sonya.bloominglife @ gmail.com.
