Grief
Jonathan Kruger Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
While the loss of loved ones is a natural and normal part of life, loss that is unexpected, untimely, accidental, or drawn out, may lead to trauma for those left behind. The grief associated with such trauma can be debilitating and, perhaps even more challenging, isolating. Such grief can also have a cascading effect, leading to deeper depression, anxiety, fear, and maladaptive behaviors to address these overwhelming emotions. While grieving is natural and must run its course, I believe strongly that any loss can be helped through exploration of the corresponding emotions and behaviors with an objective and trusted therapist.
My approach to grief and loss is anchored in my own experience. Having lost most of my family over a very brief window of time, I know well the many emotions that accompany such unexpected and sudden loss. My treatment approach is a merger of my clinical skill set with a deeply empathetic ear, anchored in the coping mechanisms I personally deployed to help manage the many transitions through my own grief. In my work with my patients around loss and grief, I focus on navigating the negative emotions that can accompany loss (guilt, anger, hopelessness, overwhelming sadness) while, over time and when appropriate, jointly crafting with my patients a narrative that celebrates the life of those that have moved on, and facilitates the release of those emotions that can keep patients “stuck” in the trauma of unexpected loss.

Reid Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD
Grief isn’t something you “get over”—it’s something you learn to carry differently over time. In therapy, we help you process the emotional impact of loss, understand how it’s affecting your identity and relationships, and find support as you integrate what’s been lost while continuing to live.

Pedro F. Baez
Life Coach, LVN, MCC, CHC - Master Certified Coach
I assist and guide clients in honoring their pain, their grief, their anger. I help them craft a uniquely theirs structure so they can ease into their confusion, their emotions, their feelings; their overwhelming sense of loss. I hold a space for them to feel it all. I invite them not to push grief away, not to resist it. I encourage them not to be anything or anyone other than who and what they are, as they feel a deep sense of disappointment, aloneness and sadness. It's all LOVE, I assure them, and love flows as best it can, sometimes as deep, lacerating, unbearable emotional pain. I support grieving women and men as they ease into the bittersweet discomfort of grieving; I coach them not to be afraid; to embrace the feeling and know, that at some point, the hurt becomes sweet remembrance, the longing transforms into a sense of clear, loving presence, and the wounds grow beautiful scars to remind us of how beautifully human, spiritual, generous and precios we all are.

Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Grief and loss are not limited to death and often follow divorce, infertility, illness, addiction, estrangement, identity shifts, or the loss of a future someone expected to have. Death brings its own weight, confronting people with finality, unanswered questions, and the reality that life has been permanently altered. I work with grief by helping clients make room for what has been lost without rushing closure, while supporting them in integrating the loss into their lives in a way that preserves meaning and connection to the present.

Bonnie Rae
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Grief and love are different sides of the same coin. We cannot have one without the other. Navigating and feeling grief is a big part of my work. Whether you come to therapy in a time of loss and grief or not, it ultimately surfaces within our work together. I do not believe that grief always has an ending, but we can most certainly work on forming a relationship with it, feeling it in a safe space, and learning how to navigate its tides. When people share their grief with me, it is a true honor to hold. Rae Therapy Group has a few specialized grief therapists, and a grief group.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Many of my clients have come to me to get over the loss of someone whether through breakup, divorce, or death. Even when loss isn't the primary reason for them seeking my help, it is often something impacting the issue at hand. In all cases I have been able to help my clients let go and move forward. In hypnosis, we can have people speak with someone who has passed on, whether it is to exchange some final goodbyes, get love and support, resolve some old dispute or trauma. I've had several clients who had trouble letting go after a breakup and we have managed to get them to move on. I had one female client who came to me for a variety of issues. She had been through a difficult divorce and Cancer diagnosis while raising 3 young children. Throughout her ordeal, she had received immense support from the priest at her church but he had passed away and she missed him immensely. In hypnosis, we visited his spirit and she was able to feel again his love and support and get his counsel. As another part of her treatment, we were able to converse with her late father who had abandoned the family when she was a child, and release the trauma that he had caused. Whether you believe in spirits or not, the experiences in hypnosis feel absolutely real and are able to bring peace and resolution.

Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
Both EMDR and insight-oriented approaches can be truly beneficial when processing loss or grief. Sometimes a client mostly needs a supportive presence and a space to talk about the loss and fully feel all the feelings involved. Other times, trauma processing via EMDR can be incredibly effective in releasing any pent up or leftover painful feelings of regret, loss, guilt, or sadness. We will work together to determine what course—and what pace—is best for you.
