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.

Dr. Berkeley Antonioli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, LCSW, LCSW-C, MEd
The majority of my training and clinical work has been focused on helping adults recover from early traumatic experiences. Often, the traumas my clients are working through is rooted in early relational and/or sexual experiences that leave a lasting impact on their formative developmental years and beyond. I have found that these early experiences often come with a tremendous amount of grief and loss, and I am honored whenever a client trusts me enough to openly grieve whatever it is that they've lost.

Karen J. Osterle
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSSA, LICSW
A loss of someone you love can change everything and prompt us to delve into the most existential internal searches. First and foremost, we need a safe space to process what happened, why it happened, and what now gives life meaning---especially if our feelings seem to shift from one minute to the next. This therapy gives you a place to get organized by talking about the ineffable, thereby moving toward accommodation, acceptance, and even moments of peace. I am a Certified Grief Therapist (David Kessler, Grief.com) and Master (Robert Neimeyer, PhD).

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Grief can bring feelings of isolation, guilt, or being “stuck.” IFS, existential, and narrative therapies help clients honor their grief and uncover the parts of themselves carrying pain. Mindfulness and somatic strategies provide grounding in overwhelming moments. I also offer diagnostic clarity to distinguish grief from depression and work with prescribers when medication support may be appropriate.

Aysha DeSilva
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I support individuals navigating grief and loss, which can manifest as numbness, disconnection, intense sadness, anger, confusion, and feelings of isolation. I help clients uncover and address the underlying emotions associated with their grief through psychodynamic therapy, interpersonal therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and EMDR. These approaches facilitate processing loss and developing effective coping strategies.
Together, we can create a safe space to explore how grief impacts your life and how to carry it in a way that feels more manageable.

Pattie Vargas
Counselor/Therapist, CBC®️Certified Provider, Kessler Certified Grief Educator
Experiencing the loss of a loved one can be the most isolating time in our lives. After the meal trains end, the services are over, and the thank-you's have all been sent, we are often left to suffer in silence, leading to guilt, depression, and recrimination. This is especially true when the death was sudden and/or centered around less than socially acceptable manners of death, and often those around us simply don't know what to say or how to be around us. When we work together, there is no judgment on what you are feeling or how you are "progressing." Instead, we just process the way things are today.

Mikela Hallmark
Therapist, MS, LPC, LMHC
Grief isn’t a problem to solve — it’s a story to be honored. Whether you're mourning the death of a loved one, the loss of a relationship, a life path you didn’t get to live, or a version of yourself that no longer fits, grief has a way of touching every part of us.
I work with grief gently, without rushing it or trying to "move you on." This is a space where you don’t have to be strong, positive, or put together. Where silence is allowed. Where your pain is not pathologized.
Together, we explore what’s been lost — and what still lives in you. We make room for sorrow, anger, numbness, and even the moments of unexpected peace. Grief changes you. But it doesn't mean you're broken. It means you loved. And in that, there is something profoundly human and worthy of tending.

Monica Grey
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Grief doesn't follow a script, and it doesn't always look the way people expect it to. Whether you've lost a loved one, a relationship, your health, or a version of your life you thought you'd have, the emotional weight can feel disorienting. I provide a supportive, structured space to process what you're going through — without pressure to "move on" before you're ready. We'll work together to honor your experience while building the skills to carry it forward in a way that feels sustainable.

Stacey Hellman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
Sometimes a person is diagnosed with Depression but what is actually happening is a normal grieving response to a loss like the death of a loved one, divorce, illness, miscarriage or other significant event. If this is the case then we need to focus on learning about what "counts" as a loss, learning about the grieving process, and supporting the client through the ups and downs that come with it. People process losses in different ways and it's important for clients to be able to identify what their patterns are and what messages they have received from parents, religion and society about how to handle loss. Sometimes these messages really cause harm and make it nearly impossible for someone to go through all the necessary stages of grief in order to integrate the loss into their experience. When we go through a loss, it can be very difficult to think about anything else and it's common for people to engage in behaviors to try to numb emotions and avoid thinking about it. But when we avoid dealing with the loss, it doesn't just get better on its own; rather we just delay the grieving process and the repressed feelings can actually cause physical illness. Additionally, when we don't process and feel our emotions, it's impossible to actually enjoy life because we are spending a lot of energy avoiding feelings and trying to be numb. Part of my job in helping people move through grief is to give them concrete tools they can use to deal with their feelings in small chunks rather than all at once which is overwhelming.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
Adjusting to the loss of a loved one is one of the most difficult things in life, and many people need help, since in many cases almost everything about their life is different, and everything reminds them of the loss. When grief does not seem to fade and it does not seem to be possible to move on, help is needed and a re-orientation of life is perhaps the only things that will allow the grieving person to move on.
