Christine Henry
Psychologist, Ph.D
Grief is the one emotion that even emotionally 'tough' people can't push down. Therapy can help you process your grief so you no longer have to carry it alone. We can explore the relationship you had with the person who died, including both the positive and negative aspects. We will attempt to make sense of the death so you can let go of all the 'what ifs.' We can find a way to help you move forward instead of feeling like time has stopped.

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.

Paul W Anderson, PhD
Psychologist, Licensed counseling psychologist, Licensed Addictions counselor
Because loss is a regular part of life, so is grieving. Grief is an understandable and natural response to change and transition. Some of the most severe losses include losing a dear partner, your job, family member or good friend. Perhaps the most difficult loss occurs when we lose our hopes and dreams.
<br>I can help you move through your transitions. I can show you how to grieve in a healthy way so that your loss supports and matures you rather than tearing you down.

Strides in Psychotherapy
Psychologist, PSY.D.
When someone you loved dies, it can feel devastating, shocking, tremendously sad, or for some, it might even be a relief. People often have a wide range of feelings related to losing someone they love, including anger, denial, guilt, sadness, depression, emptiness, loneliness, and acceptance. If the person suffered a long time before they passed, their loved ones might also feel gratitude that the person is no longer in pain. Grief can impact your ability to take care of yourself and others—it can affect your sleep, your appetite, your memory, your concentration, your energy level, your motivation, etc.

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.

Dr. Leigh Anne Randa
Psychologist, PhD
Distress from loss and grief are often mistaken for depression. While they share some common signs, treatment for grief and loss require distinctly different approaches from treatment for depression. Dr. Randa models therapy for grief and loss on a four task program: 1) accepting that the loss has occurred and the reality of the loss, 2) Processing the pain by allowing oneself to feel the loss, 3) Adjusting to life now, externally, internally, and spiritually, and 4) Creating a lasting connection with the lost in the midst of moving on with life. The tasks are not necessarily achieved in any order, but all are necessary for most effective recovery.

Grief can envelop you in a shadow, making the world seem dim and distant as you navigate the aftermath of loss.

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.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
There is really no way to fully prepare for death; less so when loss is sudden and unexpected. Many people feel a range of emotions - and those emotions may change over time or even moment by moment: shock, confusion, anger, denial, relief, emptiness, deep sadness, loneliness, isolation, fatigue, just to name a few. Sometimes loss is missing someone dear to us, and sometimes loss is more complicated. There is no correct way to grieve. But we can look at the ways in which our own minds can increase our suffering so that we can learn to be with grief and loss in a way that allows fully honoring our experiences, as well as taking steps forward in your life in a way that is in line with your chosen values. I offer a safe place where is OK to feel your feelings, however messy or confusing. I also will be on your journey to help you find rituals for honoring your loss that are special to you and your unique relationship with who you have lost.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in loss and grief, my treatment approach is grounded in empathy, validation, and support. Through compassionate listening and validation of emotions, I create a safe space for individuals to express their feelings of sadness, anger, guilt, and confusion associated with their loss. Utilizing techniques from grief therapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), I help clients navigate the grieving process, identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts, and develop coping strategies to manage their emotions. Additionally, I provide psychoeducation about the stages of grief and normalize the range of emotions experienced during mourning. Collaboration with clients may also involve exploring rituals or activities that honor the memory of the deceased and facilitate healing. My goal is to accompany individuals on their journey through grief, fostering resilience, meaning-making, and eventual adaptation to life without their loved one.

Unfortunately, we live in an age of excess uncertainty due to violence, natural disaster, disease, war and various health issues.

The Joy of You
Hypnotherapist, CCHt, NWP, EP, B.Msc
While the grieving process is unique to each individual, there are some common emotions and experiences that people often go through. It's normal to feel a wide range of emotions such as sadness, anger, guilt, confusion, and even numbness. Remember that these feelings are all part of the healing process, and it's important to allow yourself to fully experience and process them.
It's also important to take care of yourself during this time. Make sure to prioritize self-care and give yourself permission to grieve in whatever way feels right for you. Surround yourself with loved ones who can provide support and understanding. Consider seeking professional help, such as counseling or therapy, if you feel it would be beneficial.
Remember that healing takes time, and there is no set timeline for grieving. It's okay to take things at your own pace and honor your feelings and memories of your loss.

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
The grieving process is different for everyone. Everyone grieves in their own way and in their own time. Some people recover from grief and resume normal activities within six months, though they continue to feel moments of sadness. Others may feel better after about a year. Therapy will address your personal grieving process and give you the support that you need for your particular loss.
