mia perry bowick
licensed psychotherapist and drama therapist
Mia Perry Bowick is a licensed psychotherapist, writer, speaker, and grief companion who spent more than a decade working with people through grief, trauma, and the nonlinear work of becoming. Today, she has chosen to step away from clinical practice to approach grief differently, not as an illness to be treated, but as a profound human experience to be accompanied.
After the death of her brother, Matthew Perry, in 2023, loss restructured Mia’s world. From inside that experience, and informed by two master’s degrees, years of clinical work, neuroscience, attachment theory, somatic awareness, and ritual, she developed Grief Alchemy, a framework for moving through loss in a way that allows it to transform us.
Mia’s work is rooted in the belief that grief does not ask us to return to who we were before. The loss does not disappear; we become large enough to hold it. Through her writing, speaking, workshops, and one-to-one Grief Alchemy Sessions, she offers company in the descent and practical frameworks for meeting what has been lost, witnessing what remains, and discovering what is becoming.
Her voice is warm, curious, and unsparing. She is willing to say the thing no one else wants to say and sit in the hard place without rushing toward resolution. She teaches from inside her own grief rather than from the far side of it.
