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.

Loss or Grief
Melanie Bettes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, Coach
Losing someone or something important in our lives is so difficult to move through when we hear people say platitudes like 'they're in a better place'. True or not, it can feel dismissive of our own emotions. Others are so uncomfortable with OUR grief that they do everything they can to keep us from crying. Again, dismissing our feelings. Grief is a journey. There's no way around it, only through. I would love to hear about your loved one and what made them special to you. (Pets included!) Together, we'll come up with ways to honor the memory and time you had together.

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.
