Grief
Sophie Pierce
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I approach grief and loss through a compassionate, relational lens, recognizing that grief is a deeply human response to experiences of change, separation, and loss. Drawing from attachment theory and developmental perspectives, I understand grief as a reflection of the bonds and relationships that matter deeply to us. Therapy provides a supportive space to process emotions, honor what has been lost, and gradually find ways to move forward while carrying those connections with us.

Grief
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.

Grief
Lynda Griffin Bull
Counselor/Therapist, MC, LPC
Grief is a deeply personal experience that can follow the loss of a loved one, a major life change, or even the loss of a hoped-for future. Feelings of sadness, confusion, anger, or numbness are all part of the grieving process, and everyone moves through it at their own pace. I provide a compassionate space where you can talk openly about your loss and the impact it has had on your life. Together we will honor your experience, process the emotions that arise, and support you in gradually finding meaning and connection again.

Grief
Alice Barton
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Many clients who suffer losses whether it be through sudden death or illness, have not properly grieved during the first year after the loss and are left with "complicated grief" . This can interfere with a person's normal functioning including loss of concentration, job loss, less participation in enjoyable activities and many other changes.

Grief
Claire Karakey
Therapist, LPC, MC
Grief is the pain that is naturally felt when a loss occurs. The loss can be from the death of a loved one or pet, the loss of a job or a friendship, or even a sense of lost safety after a traumatic event. Feelings of Grief and Loss happen to everyone and can.
The stages of grief are denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and, finally, acceptance – they tend to happen in this order but that is not always the case. In fact, depression from a loss may occur years after the loss itself. It is important for individuals to work through the emotions following grief as they are necessary and normal.
However, if the anger, isolation, or depression do not pass within a reasonable amount of time then professional support may be needed. If the pain is so constant and severe that everyday life cannot be resumed, it could be a condition called “complicated grief” or the individual could have fallen into a clinical depression. A psychotherapist can evaluate and treat these conditions so a healthy life can be regained.

Grief
Dr. Florence Rosiello
Therapist, Ph.D.
Most of my work is with people who have difficulty in relationships, either feeling too emotionally isolated or too merged. My strength lies in helping people find a place where they can be in intimate relationships and not lose themselves. Loving is difficult - and feeling loved, is even harder.
