Along the Path Counseling Services, P.C.
Licensed Professional Counselor
Grief comes in and out of our lives, in different shapes and forms, often more than we would like in life. During grief, you can feel isolated in a whirlwind of emotions. It can be hard to know how to navigate our feelings amid such immense change. The clinician’s role, in addition to offering techniques, which will help alleviate distressing symptoms and move toward coping and healing, is to validate and be present with the griever’s inner and outer experiences and the multi-dimensional levels (somatic, psychic, and spiritual) of pain and distress.

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.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
Adjusting to the loss of a loved one is one of the most difficult things in life, and many people need help, since in many cases almost everything about their life is different, and everything reminds them of the loss. When grief does not seem to fade and it does not seem to be possible to move on, help is needed and a re-orientation of life is perhaps the only things that will allow the grieving person to move on.
