Loss or Grief
Charles R. Davenport, Psy.D., LLC.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
No one teaches us how to grieve or process loss. Yet it is a requirement of life. We have struggled with loss for a long time as humans and we will likely continue to feel the pain of loss. Learning how to best help you thought it is frequently the goal of therapy for loss or grief.

Loss or Grief
Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Loss is inevitable. We all die and we all lose people, relationships, and states of being that we once loved. If we open ourselves to live an authentic, honest, interdependent life, we are sure to experience loss and grief. Many of us fear it so much that we develop a multitude of ways to avoid it, strike a connection balance that we believe will help us protect ourselves later (yet that often robs our joy in the meantime), and use substances or other numbing techniques to help us avoid the complicated process of grief. I believe we can all benefit from learning to appreciate that loss is inevitable, and to learn to grieve in a way that enables us to move forward with compassion and fulfillment.

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.

Loss or Grief
Ben Dickstein
Psychologist, PhD
I offer grief counseling for those who have endured a recent loss, as well as those struggling to come to terms with a loss from the more distant past. I specialize in issues related to complicated grief (aka prolonged grief), as well as losing someone to suicide. Often the clients I see tell me that they can't see their lives as possessing any purpose or meaning in the wake of their loss. Nor do they feel right about looking toward the future or trying to move forward, as they feel that this dishonors the memory of the deceased. Sometimes feelings of guilt or regret linger after loss, too. I help those grieving work through these types of issues and increase their level of connection with loved ones and friends.
