Grief
Clara Kuntz
Psychologist, PhD
Grief after the loss of a beloved pet is often unacknowledged or minimized, even though the bond with an animal can be deep and life changing. Pets are cherished family members, companions, and sources of daily comfort, and their passing can trigger profound sadness, guilt, anger, or loneliness. Many people also struggle with changes in routine, loss of companionship, or second-guessing past care or end-of-life decisions.
Pet bereavement is a normal and valid form of grief, and healing often involves acknowledging the bond, allowing yourself to mourn, seeking support from understanding people or groups, and honoring your pet’s memory in meaningful ways.
I provide compassionate online counseling for adults to help navigate the emotional impact of pet loss. Together, we focus on processing grief, finding support, and creating ways to honor and remember your cherished companion.

Silvina Falcon - Levine
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW
Did you suffer a sudden or unexpected loss of a love one? Does someone close to you committed suicide or died of drug overdose? Did you sustain a body injury or did you loss a body function that drastically affect your ability to fulfill daily activities? Did you lose your job, had to change geographic location and feel disconnected? If you feel stunned or numb after experiencing any of these losses, or even if you struggle with anger and guilt over them, then bereavement counseling can help you. Even though grief and bereavement are the natural emotional responses to any type of loss, the warm and unconditional support from a professional can be invaluable in lessening your emotional pain and allow you be more connected.

Denise Trainer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.A., L.C.S.W., NCPsyA
Grief is not only a response to a recent loss, but can often bring up losses from the past which may not have been perceived as a loss. The experience of loss happens to all of us. Grieving and finding some meaning behind this normal life experience, approached with compassion and acceptance can bring peace to an individual.

Michael Nakhla
Psychiatrist, MD
Grief is a deeply personal process that doesn't follow a linear path, and I provide compassionate support as you navigate the complex emotions of loss. Whether you're mourning a death, relationship ending, or other significant loss, I'll help you honor your feelings while gradually rebuilding meaning and hope. My approach recognizes that healing doesn't mean forgetting—it means learning to carry your loss while still engaging fully with life.

Grief
Dr Laura Soden
Psychologist, PhD, Clinical Psychology
Grief and mourning, far from being pathological, are parts of the normal process of intimate relationships. Such feelings become problematic only if temporally extended, life-disrupting, or suppressed unnaturally. Psychotherapy allows the mourner to locate his/her feelings, process them, and sort through memories in ways that resolve resentments and guilt, and restore pleasure in the positive aspects of the lost relationship.

Grief
Dr. David Amarel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
My training & experience ranges from psychotherapy & assessment of adults, couples, & teens to counseling persons with AIDS & survivors of trauma with acute PTSD. Whether you seek to overcome a specific trauma or to break a chronic life pattern, to work toward achieving your purpose, I will meet you where you are at. As you know, grief can be coping with the shock but it is also a kind of one-sided relationship work. I can help you with that.

Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Grieving can be a difficult process, and experiencing a loss is a time when many people seek outside support. Often, friends and family struggle with supporting us through the difficult process of grieving, and a professional can offer the support you need. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can learn how to cope with emotions that arise as a result of loss. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, you can work through the grieving process and how it may be impacting your life.

Grief is a deeply painful experience that feels like it will go on forever. While we may always miss someone we lost, we now have therapies that will help us move through that grief more rapidly, taking us to a place of relative acceptance and greater peace sooner.

Jennifer Cain
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Loss and grief are very painful things that everyone experiences at some point in their life. If you are grieving a loss, you are certainly not alone, although your grief and your process is unique to you. There is no "right" way to grieve, and the right support can mean the difference between moving through the process in a healthy way versus getting stuck. The key is finding ways to carry with you the parts you want to keep, and integrate those things into yourself or your life, while coming to a place of acceptance about the person or thing you lost.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Death. The most universal of life experiences. So why are we afraid to talk about it? We use euphemistic language in an effort to . . . what exactly? Does imagining her in “a better place” take the pain away? What do we say when children ask if they can visit this place, or when the deceased will return home? And then the casseroles and phone calls taper off. Always too soon. Then people stop asking, as though their questions will bring her to mind and cause you to suffer. Don’t they know you think of her every day?
Grief doesn’t ever really go away; it changes over time. Just when you think you are coping better with the loss, the holidays arrive, or the one-year anniversary hits, and there you are, overwhelmed by difficult emotions once again. I would be honored to sit alongside you on this difficult, and often lonely, journey.

Judith Rapley
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Loss can be very painful. Because of this, grief and loss are often seen as disruptions to our lives. We work very hard at either avoiding them, rushing to get through them or feeing overcome or flooded by them. We work on making sense of these and understanding them better in our work together.

Francis A. Bax
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, LMHC, LPC, CASAC-Master
There are times that we lose family, friends or pets due to death or separation. There are also times that we can't reach our goals in our lives and careers that are as much of a loss as death or dying. We explore those triggers to grief and come up with the means to accept losses.
