Loss or Grief
Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
When we lose important people in our lives we are left with indelible scars that remind us of the void we feel in their absence.
Loss or Grief
Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
I offer a compassionate sanctuary for those navigating the profound and often turbulent waters of loss and grief. I understand that grief is not a linear journey but a complex tapestry of emotions that can engulf one's life. With a gentle and empathetic approach, I walk beside you through this journey, honoring your unique experience of loss. Together, we explore the depths of sorrow, seeking to understand and embrace the myriad feelings that come with bereavement. It's a path towards healing, not about moving on, but about finding a way to carry your loss with grace, integrating this profound experience into your life, and rediscovering a sense of wholeness and peace amidst the echoes of what was lost.

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
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.

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.
