Loss or Grief
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.

Kristena Martin
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Most people will experience loss at some point in their lives. Grief is a reaction to any form of loss. Bereavement is a type of grief involving the death of a loved one.
Bereavement and grief encompass a range of feelings from deep sadness to anger. The process of adapting to a significant loss can vary dramatically from one person to another. It often depends on a person’s background, beliefs, and relationship to what was lost.

Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Grief feels insurmountable. Even the smallest task may require more emotional energy than the person has to complete the task. Grief affects every other area of a person's life. Grief treatment is primarily person centered. My job as a therapist is to allow my clients to cry or scream or say horrible things about the person they have lost because I won't judge you for anything you say or do. For most people no one else in their lives understands why they are still grieving. Grief and I are old friends. I don't expect you to grieve the same way I do or the same way anyone else does. I just offer you a space to be yourself and say the quiet thoughts out loud.
