Grief
Chris Scarberry
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I believe that the most important thing to bear in mind when it comes to grief is that everyone grieves in their own way at their own pace. I have often helped clients work through self-judgement around things like being angry at a loved one who died or being relieved that they have passed. The Kübler-Ross stages of grief do include anger, but oftentimes, this is the hardest emotion to accept. Sometimes people also hear about the stages of grief and expect to experience one at a time when the reality is that these stages can run concurrently and in different orders. A major component of the grief work I do is helping people get to the point where they can honor and/or find takeaways from their loved one's legacy.

Kelli Tahaney
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Ph.D.
Grief and loss is a universal human experience, one that often plays a role in depression, anxiety, and complex trauma reactions. I help clients process loss and learn to understand grief and loss as emotions that are natural, at times overwhelming, and often as a sign that we experienced love and meaning.

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.

Ostara Psychotherapy Associates PLLC
Psychologist
Grief and loss are central aspects of being alive including losses as we age, in our relationships with loved ones and life transitions as well as physical function due to medical diagnoses and life events. I am trained in a number of approaches that are proven effective for supporting you through what can be a tremendously confusing and painful process. Post-grief loss is real but so too is post-grief growth though it may seem impossible to fathom at this time. I bring you both lived experience and professional skill tested nearly 20 years.

Along the Path Counseling Services, P.C.
Licensed Professional Counselor
Grief comes in and out of our lives, in different shapes and forms, often more than we would like in life. During grief, you can feel isolated in a whirlwind of emotions. It can be hard to know how to navigate our feelings amid such immense change. The clinician’s role, in addition to offering techniques, which will help alleviate distressing symptoms and move toward coping and healing, is to validate and be present with the griever’s inner and outer experiences and the multi-dimensional levels (somatic, psychic, and spiritual) of pain and distress.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
Grief can be disorienting—like you’ve suddenly found yourself in a place you no longer recognize. Maybe you lost someone irreplaceable, or perhaps you’re mourning dreams, relationships, or pieces of your identity. Whatever your loss, Dr. Jenny Shields creates a compassionate space to help driven professionals explore their grief openly, without judgment or pressure to “move on.” Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), existential perspectives, and mindfulness-based approaches, Dr. Shields gently guides you toward making sense of what feels senseless, honoring what you’ve lost, and reconnecting to what still matters deeply in your life.

Mun & Mind Therapy PLLC

Grief is a natural response to loss, but it is not limited to the death of a loved one. Individuals may grieve relationships, identities, opportunities, health, or life stages. Cultural and family expectations often shape how grief is expressed and understood. We provide a compassionate space to honor your loss, make meaning of your experience, and move through grief at your own pace.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
The waves of grief crash in unexpected ways at unexpected times with unexpected outcomes. Within my Holistic Life Coaching practice and through my own personal experience, I have cultivated tools, methods, and experiments that approach grief and loss through the lens of curiosity, expansiveness, and nonjudgment. I am NOT offering therapy—I leave the work of diagnosis and treatment of medical issues to medical professionals. Coaching can absolutely complement and supplement your therapy work; our work is therapeutic without being therapy. Without stagnating in your grief, together we can discover what your grief means to you, what it is bringing to your life, and how we can use it to manifest the life you desire. From where you are sitting right now that may sound like a difficult, if not impossible task. My mother always said "nothing beats failure but a try." I invite you to try coaching to discover what happens when you allow yourself to speak your truth and feel however and whatever you are feeling in a safe, nonjudgmental space dedicated to you and your growth.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Grief has no rulebook. It doesn’t follow a straight line or a set timeline, and it can come in waves—some small, some that knock you off your feet. Whether you’ve lost a loved one, a relationship, a part of your identity, or a future you had envisioned, the weight of loss can feel overwhelming. Maybe you’re struggling with sadness, guilt, or even numbness. Perhaps you feel pressure to “move on” when, deep down, you’re still trying to make sense of what life looks like without what you’ve lost.
Grief is not about getting over it—it’s about learning how to carry it in a way that allows you to keep moving forward. Together, we will create space for your emotions without judgment, honor what you’ve lost, and help you find a way to integrate this experience into your life. You don’t have to go through this alone. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting—it means finding a way to hold both the pain of loss and the possibility of hope.
