Loss or Grief
Richard Scott, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Losing someone you love and care about can impact every facet of your life. Grief and loss can sometimes be complex and confusing. One day you may feel good and the next day you may be unable to manage your emotions. Every person experiences grief differently based on their lived experiences and a number of factors. If you're struggling with a loss, therapy can be a very helpful place to talk about your emotions and find ways to cope effectively with complicated emotions. Please give therapy a chance to help you recover from a loss and heal in a way that will be best for your mental health and well-being.

Loss or Grief
Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
Grief is so different for everyone. There is no "right" way to grieve. I'll hold space for you to process your loss and validate what YOU are feeling and going through. When the time comes to think about moving forward, I can help you explore what makes sense to you. I won't judge your thoughts, or work to make you feel better by pushing you to speed grief along. No, I'll respect your journey and provide you the support you need.

Loss or Grief
Philip Cooke
Psychologist, PhD
The death of a loved one is hardly ever simple - it stirs strong, complicated, and upsetting feelings within us. This is particularly true when we lose someone close to us - a partner, parent, child - or someone with whom we had a complicated relationship. I believe the key to successful grieving is allowing ourselves to feel, identify, and make sense of all our feelings around the loss, especially feelings we’re reluctant to accept.
Having worked previously as a palliative care psychologist within a hospital setting, I have accompanied many families and caregivers before, during, and after their loved one’s death. I am familiar with helping others navigate the often uncomfortable psychic terrain of grief. I work well with those looking to explore their grief and find relief through expressing their feelings and making meaning of their loved one’s death.
