In-Depth Bio
Jennifer R. Levin, PhD, LMFT, FT, is a nationally recognized expert in traumatic grief, specializing in sudden or unexpected death. With over 30 years of clinical, organizational, and consulting experience, she helps organizations and individuals navigate the human and financial toll of traumatic loss and disruptive change — transforming tragedy into resilience and fostering long-term post-traumatic growth.
Dr. Levin is founder of Traumatic Grief Solutions, a consulting firm helping organizations prepare for and respond to sudden loss in the workplace. She provides crisis response consulting, grief leadership training, and trauma-informed coaching to reduce the long-term emotional and financial costs of sudden workplace loss.
Dr. Levin trains HR departments, corporate leaders, school administrators, and nonprofit executives to respond with clarity and compassion during times of loss. She developed a proprietary five-step model to reduce the organizational impact of traumatic loss — mitigating long-term disruption, protecting employee well-being, and building resilience across teams. Her work empowers organizations to move beyond crisis management, reduce turnover and absenteeism, and foster cultures where employees can adapt, heal, and grow through even the most destabilizing events.
Dr. Levin is the author of ““The Traumatic Loss Workbook: Powerful Skills for Navigating the Grief Caused by a Sudden or Unexpected Death” (New Harbinger Publications, July 2025). This groundbreaking guide offers a structured, compassionate path forward for people blindsided by traumatic loss. Combining emotional regulation, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and meaning-making, the workbook provides a powerful step-by-step process that meets people wherever they are in their grief.
Unlike general grief resources, Dr. Levin’s workbook specifically addresses the intense, destabilizing nature of traumatic loss — equipping users with tools to manage “grief attacks,” navigate sudden triggers, and rebuild a sense of safety and purpose. It is also widely used by therapists, clergy, and leaders across industries seeking to offer evidence-based support for those in crisis.
Dr. Levin is among fewer than 300 mental health professionals worldwide recognized as a Fellow in Thanatology — the highest certification in the study of death, dying, and bereavement. Her online course, “Traumatic Loss Companion Course: A Guided Path to Healing,” provides practical tools to help readers cope with grief, process trauma, and find meaning again. She hosts the podcast “Untethered: Healing the Pain From a Sudden Death,” which features real-life stories and strategies for navigating traumatic grief.
At the heart of Dr. Levin’s work is the belief that grief doesn’t end — but with the right support, people can grow through even the most destabilizing losses. Her mission is to help organizations and individuals reclaim stability, connection, and meaning after loss. Learn more at TraumaticGriefSolutions.com.
