Loss or Grief
Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Grief is such a unique and individual experience. Whether you are coping with the death of a loved one, loss of a relationship, friend, family member, or job, loss can be a profound experience. Through therapy, you will have a safe space to explore these feelings. There is no right way to grieve and many people have a myriad of feelings that go along with the grief, including anger, guilt, shame, sadness, regret, or relief. We can explore all of these while you learn some coping skills to better manage your loss.

Loss or Grief
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.
