Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work with adults experiencing loss and grief in its many forms, including bereavement, the end of relationships, changes in health, identity, or life circumstances. Grief is not linear and often involves conflicting emotions, uncertainty, and shifts in how people understand themselves and the world around them.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore grief without imposing timelines or expectations. Rather than trying to resolve or move through grief, the focus is on understanding how loss is being held and lived with. Sessions may involve conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

You can't stop crying. You are thinking of so many what-ifs, coulds and shoulds. You miss your loved ones so much it hurts. Sometimes you wonder if you will be able to stand the hurt. You are hearing it's tome to "get over" it. No, it's time to talk to someone who understands. Sometimes no one died but you have experienced a devastating loss of life as you knew it. We at Embrace will work with you.

Grief can be debilitating and complicated. Feeling alone with this can be very isolating. Having a witness to the grieving process provides a holding environment that helps someone get through it.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW Psychotherapist, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
While illness, loss and grief are part of life -- during particularly challenging times -- psychotherapy offers a an opportunity to consider how we care for ourselves and others and to discover insight, compassion and self-compassion as we learn to cope with waves of sorrow.

Grief and loss are something we all face, but they are unique to each of us. I know loss can be challenging. From death, breakups, and job loss to aging, grief, and loss come in different forms. You are not alone; therapy can help you move through and forward.

Tanya Samuelian
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.S., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Grief doesn’t follow a timeline—and it often hides beneath the surface, especially for those who are used to staying strong for others. Whether you’ve experienced the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or a version of your life you once knew, therapy offers a space to move through the pain with support, presence, and care. You don’t have to grieve alone—or silently.

Judith Nitchie
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT36770
Grieving the death or loss of someone or of something that was important to us is an inevitable part of life. Your emotions might be 'all over the place,' from deep sadness to relief. Anger, confusion, frustration, and reassessment can also be part of it. Wherever you are in your experience it can be helpful to share and talk it through with a professional experienced in this area.

Lisa Abrams-Misbeek
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a therapeutic technique that encourages you to accept negative feelings and circumstances so you can focus on healthier patterns. Also, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy can help you become aware and change these intense negative thought patterns. You'll learn to choose, connect and communicate, and gain back sense of control.

Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Grief is a season without end. It consumes, suffocates, diffuses. It is days of silence. It is unfeeling as a stone. It is raw as a volcano, erupting, tears for hours on end. Grief and loss are also incredibly human experiences. They confirm that we are living, feeling, complex creatures capable of more. Our capacity for grief is commiserate with our capacity for love.

Rich Painter, M.S.
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Are you experiencing grief or loss of some kind? Are you stuck in the negative thoughts and emotions that can feel overwhelming at times? You are not alone in this. It is normal and common to go through certain stages of grief, but everyone grieves in their own unique way. Having someone to walk you through this process as well as help you take care of yourself and begin the journey of recovery can be a very helpful resource. If you are ready to begin the healing journey, I am here to help.

Alyssa Habschmidt
Therapist, AMFT
Grief is painful to carry. The silence that echoes with grief is sometimes too loud. It can feel ever-consuming and suffocating. Grief and loss are human experiences, and aren't always about death—it's about moments when life changes in ways we didn't ask for—a relationship ending, shifts in health or career, the loss of a friendship, or even life transitions we deeply wanted. I can help you process your loss in a way that honors your experience while helping you stay connected to yourself.

Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Grief is a natural response to loss, yet it often feels overwhelming and isolating. Whether you are grieving the death of a loved one, the loss of a relationship, or a major life transition, therapy can provide space to process the emotional, relational, and identity shifts that follow loss. My background includes grief-focused training and facilitating bereavement groups, and I approach this work with deep respect for the personal pace and meaning-making that grief requires.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
Grief is a deeply personal experience, and I believe there is no one “right” way to move through it. In my work with grief and loss, I create space for the full range of emotions that may arise—whether that includes sadness, numbness, anger, confusion, or even relief. I focus on helping you stay connected to your own process at a pace that feels right for you. Together, we explore ways to honor both the significance of what’s been lost and your experience in the aftermath. Through somatic awareness, reflection, and supportive presence, we work to make room for grief rather than rush past it—so it can move with you, not against you.

Long Beach is home to one of the largest Cambodian-American communities in the world — concentrated in the Cambodian Cultural District near Anaheim Street — creating significant demand for therapists with expertise in intergenerational trauma, refugee experience, and the psychological legacy of the Khmer Rouge genocide. The city also has large Latino and Black populations, a growing young professional community, and one of the busiest commercial ports in North America, with maritime and logistics workers forming part of its occupational therapy clientele. MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center and the Long Beach VA Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, with a private practice community serving Belmont Shore, Bixby Knolls, and the East Side. Long Beach's diverse, working-class identity gives its therapy community a distinct character compared to its wealthier South Bay neighbors.
