Grief
Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
Michael views divorce as a profound life transition that requires more than just legal navigation; it demands the emotional processing of "stuck" grief and the rebuilding of a new, independent identity.
Divorce is rarely just the end of a legal contract; it is a complex psychological uncoupling that reshapes your identity, family dynamics, and sense of the future. With 35 years of clinical experience, Michael helps individuals and parents navigate the turbulent emotional landscape of separation, focusing on the "unspoken" grief and the shifts in self-perception that occur during this transition. By exploring the relational patterns that defined the marriage, he provides a space to process the loss without becoming defined by it. Whether you are navigating the initial crisis or working to establish a healthy co-parenting dynamic, the goal is to move through the pain toward a restored sense of agency and a new chapter built on self-awareness.

Grief
Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Losing a partner at any point in the relationship can be a traumatizing experience. This is because we begin our lives being attached to our parents, who hopefully provide a semblance of love and security that make us feel like the world is a caring and safe place. Some children don’t receive this kind of nurturing, but they might believe they can find it in their significant other. This is not pie-in-the-sky thinking; our romantic partnerships are actually continuations of the attachment we felt as children to our parents. Even near the beginning of the relationship we look to our partners to fulfill many of the roles a parent might fulfill, and this is appropriate. Ideally, our partners show us love in a way we feel cared for, they support us when the chips are down, and they are a space of safety we can call home.
From the beginning of the relationship we all have a small sliver of hope that we might find a safe space in our partner. This is why even early relationship loss feels so devastating and sometimes like the end of the world. This is an experience no one should weather alone, and being in therapy gives you a space to visit and revisit elements of the relationship you might not have understood, cry as much as you need to cry, and feel seen and heard in a way you need to heal.
You might have had a broken engagement, been ghosted by someone you’ve been dating, or had your 20 year-long marriage dissolve. You can get through this, but don’t do it alone.

Grief
Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Grief doesn't follow a timeline, no matter what people expect from you. It comes in waves. Some days you're functioning and some days it hits you in the grocery store and you can't explain why. The world keeps moving and you're supposed to move with it, but part of you is still back there, with them, with what you lost. We don't try to rush grief or fix it. We sit with you in it. We help you find ways to carry the loss without being crushed by it, to honor what mattered while slowly rebuilding a life that has room for joy again. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

Grief
Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
There is a deeper understanding of the value of life, when humans have had the bitter of loss. As a counselor I have assisted with thousands of such situations. However as a child and teen, I saw it as my calling to help the adults in my life manage grief. Such pain and challenge were my first therapy interventions. I was deeply shocked to find that my four years of graduate counseling training had absolutely zero information about grief and loss. Now as a seasoned clinician, understanding there is a marked difference between grief and depression, I feel it is a special privilege to be able to help people through grief.

Paul Sather
Psychologist, PhD
Grief and loss are often confusing and difficult to work through. I come alongside you in your grief and help soothe the pain of the emptiness that is often so painful. When we walk into the darkness of the sunset, the sunrise comes much more quickly than when we walk away in an attempt to avoid it.
