Sandy Kong
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 119380
As an existential therapy, I always say "to exist is to grieve". Grief is a part of life. It's not just about death, but any loss or transition that we go through. Something that once was, is no longer anymore, is a constant in life, therefor, grief is a constant part of life. Grief is one of the most painful emotions we as humans have to learn how to navigate, because we can't change it, we can't fix it, we can't make it go away. We feel the powerlessness in us. Therapy is not about "fixing" the loss but about helping individuals navigate the profound changes that come with it, offering support as they find a new, manageable way to move forward. Grief therapy is a specialized, supportive counseling process that helps individuals process the emotional, physical, and psychological impact of loss. It aims to help people accept the reality of the loss, navigate intense emotions like guilt or anger, adjust to life, and build long-term resilience rather than just "moving on".

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.

Su Boudreau, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Domestic Violence Counselor
Emotional experiences of sadness or anger and other behavioral changes can arise as the result of a loss. People can get a better understanding of what they are going through and help prevent and reduce prolonged undesirable effects in their lives through counseling when grief/bereavement has affected them. Even though it is normal to feel sad after a loss, when the sadness prolongs and starts affecting one's ability to return to the previous level of daily functioning, it is advisable to seek help from trained professionals to prevent worsening of symptoms, such as developing depression.

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.

Reid Kessler

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.

Michelle Bourgerie
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, APCC
When grief sits in your throat, and feels like fear, it can stop you in your tracks. Sometimes a song, smell, or a photo will bring a flood of grief. When you are still going to work or have to continue keeping home and kids on schedule, grief gets stuffed down deep. You might be wondering when you'll start to feel like yourself again, when you will stop feeling distracted and forgetful. You may wonder how long you can keep stuffing the grief in order to get through the day. If you're drinking at night to cope, or not sleeping at all or too much, you need extra support. Grief is a journey that no one should travel alone. You'll be okay, I've walked with so many through their grief and loss. You don't have to know the phases of grief and how to process it, because I do, and I can help you. It's a privilege to help you navigate profound grief and to help you honor your loved one as we work together to help help the color come back into your life, and even joy.

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.

Sonny Granade
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Experiencing a significant loss—and the grief that follows—can leave us feeling unanchored and overwhelmed, caught between who we once were and who we are becoming. I work with my clients to gently and compassionately explore what exists within these vulnerable periods of transition, including learning how to stay present with the pain of grief rather than rushing past it. Within that space, we make room for growth, healing, and meaningful change to emerge over time.

Marge Michaelson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, ACSW, DSW
Loss and Grief are experienced with death and also many other incidents. There is a non-linear path to healing and techniques to help in the process. History shows the human condition as experiencing tragedy and finding a way to survive. Therapy is part of that way.

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.

John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT MACP LPCC
Loss is inevitable and timeless - grief is not. A large portion of his journey was working with Zen Hospice, and helping individuals and families deal with loss and transform their grief into something else. It is a journey best not walked alone, and the practice is walking through the middle, and learning that it will pass.
