Grief hurts—and it can feel like no one truly understands. Whether you’re mourning a loved one, the end of a relationship, or a life that’s changed beyond recognition, grief can leave you feeling lost, overwhelmed, and alone. Dana Hayes offers compassionate, trauma-informed grief therapy to help you make sense of your pain, honor your loss, and gently reconnect with meaning. You don’t have to navigate this alone. Grief therapy creates space for your sorrow—and your healing to be faced with someone who cares and acknowledges your suffering.

When illness enters a relationship, everything changes. Couples often struggle under the weight of caregiving, exhaustion, and shifting roles. Intimacy may fade, communication becomes strained, and both partners can feel isolated—together, yet alone. At Beneath the Mango Tree LLC, Dana Hayes provides compassionate support for couples facing terminal illness. With a deep understanding of anticipatory grief, caregiver burnout, and emotional overwhelm, Dana helps partners reconnect, process complex feelings, and find steadiness in the midst of uncertainty. You don’t have to carry it all alone—healing can happen, even in heartbreak.

You do not need to face this alone-- whatever "this" is, group therapy offers a powerful reminder that your pain is valid—and that others truly understand. In a supportive, confidential space, group members share stories, hold space for one another, and begin to heal together. At Beneath the Mango Tree LLC, Dana Hayes gently guides each group with compassion and care, creating a sense of connection, safety, and belonging. Whether you’re feeling isolated, overwhelmed, or simply in need of community, group therapy can be a meaningful step toward healing.

Every relationship needs care. Whether you're hoping to strengthen your connection, repair old wounds, or prepare for the next chapter—like marriage, having children, or other big life transitions—couples therapy offers a safe space to grow together. At Beneath the Mango Tree LLC, Dana Hayes helps partners deepen communication, rebuild trust, and understand each other more fully. You don’t have to wait for a crisis to seek support. With patience and clarity, Dana guides couples toward greater emotional intimacy, resilience, and connection—so your relationship feels like a place of safety, strength, and mutual care.

Stress affects the whole family—even if everyone shows it differently. Teenagers may withdraw, act out, or struggle to express what they’re feeling, while parents often feel helpless or overwhelmed. Sometimes adults are more prepared to discuss the past with their family members than they were when they were younger. At Beneath the Mango Tree LLC, Dana Hayes offers family therapy that creates a compassionate space for everyone to be seen and heard. Whether your family is coping with the death of a loved one, navigating ongoing illness, or other overwhelming change, therapy can help you reconnect, improve communication, and support one another with greater understanding. Healing is possible—together.
