Stephanie A. Carson
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.S., LMFT
While I work with all grief and loss issues, my primary specialty is working with parents who have lost a child. When a child dies, a parent's world is shattered. While nothing can take away the pain of losing a child, I assist bereaved parents in finding ways to help make their pain more bearable.

We'll work on finding meaning and committing to the values that guide you, even in the midst of pain and change. You will be supported in navigating this new terrain and finding restorative comfort through natural connection and self-compassion.

Nes Pinar Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I help people move through grief and loss by offering a grounded, compassionate place to feel the full weight of what they’re carrying without having to do it alone. Together, we make sense of the waves—numbness, sorrow, anger, confusion—and gently explore what it means to live with this absence while staying connected to what matters most. My approach is tender, patient, and deeply human, supporting you as you rebuild your footing and find moments of meaning and ease again.

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.

Julie Levin
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
When you have a difficult family member, loss and grief are part of life long before anyone passes. You may need to mourn a parent who no longer recognizes you. You may need to grieve for the childhood you never got to have. You may need to grieve the dreams you had for your own child. Grief is a normal and essential part of this healing work. Expressing the losses and the pain make space for new thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and behaviors to emerge. My job is to hold a safe and sacred space for the tears, the anger, the heavy-heartedness, the nostalgia, and anything else that arises as you acknowledge what you’ve lost (or never had), and learn to hold yourself gently through the pain.

Stella Zweben Samuel, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have worked for many years with those individuals who have experienced loss. Some of my clinical work is educating clients on the grieving process and allowing for further understanding of how the client is impacted by grief and loss. My clients who experience loss feel supported and encouraged to understand the feelings and thoughts they are having. I provide a non-judgmental space for individuals who have a history of loss and grief to feel supported.

Sophie Pierce
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I approach grief and loss through a compassionate, relational lens, recognizing that grief is a deeply human response to experiences of change, separation, and loss. Drawing from attachment theory and developmental perspectives, I understand grief as a reflection of the bonds and relationships that matter deeply to us. Therapy provides a supportive space to process emotions, honor what has been lost, and gradually find ways to move forward while carrying those connections with us.

Christina Dee
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A. LMFT
Grief rearranges the landscape of our life often disorienting and painful. It’s important to know how to attend to your grief and give it the time and space it needs. I have extensive clinical experience supporting individuals grieving a death or coping with a life-limiting illness as well as providing individual and group support for those healing from PTSD and death related trauma issues.

Dr. Lynne Logan
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ph.D., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Grief has it's own life journey. Grief has stages, but often not in an order we can recognize. Losing a loved one can be debilitating, confusing and often emotionally overwhelming. Walking through the grief process with a therapist can help you understand the intense feelings you may encounter. There are times when you may feel difficult emotions even years later -- maybe what we call a 'delayed grief response.' We can recover from the loss of a loved one. Life may never be the same after a trauma, but the intense pain of the loss is not something you have to live with forever.

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.
