About The Founder
Behind Every Photo is a Story You Cannot See...
Allison Lindsey (1984)
Allison Lindsey (1984)
Two photos. Four decades apart. A lifetime in between.
This photo was taken just after High School on a trip to Cancun.
While my mom was in a hospital in New Orleans, dying from cancer.
We all knew, but no one talked about it. She encouraged me to go on the trip, knowing how little time she had left.
Four weeks later, she was gone.
It wasn't until 25 years later - sitting in a therapist's office - that I realized I had never truly grieved her death. The therapist made space for my pain, witnessed my growth, and guided me towards healing.
That support was life-changing.
​
My therapy inspired me to change careers and open The New Orleans Grief Center - a place where those in pain can heal through individual and group counseling.
The photo on the right is me today - appearing happy and healthy.
There is a lot you cannot see.
The journey from 1984 to 2025 has included a lot of life experiences in which I felt grief - cancer, sobriety, and divorce, to name a few.
​
Grief is part of life.
You cannot outrun it. Grief will catch you.
But you CAN get through it.
And you don't have to do it alone.
