Dr. Leigh Anne Randa
Psychologist, PhD
Distress from loss and grief are often mistaken for depression. While they share some common signs, treatment for grief and loss require distinctly different approaches from treatment for depression. Dr. Randa models therapy for grief and loss on a four task program: 1) accepting that the loss has occurred and the reality of the loss, 2) Processing the pain by allowing oneself to feel the loss, 3) Adjusting to life now, externally, internally, and spiritually, and 4) Creating a lasting connection with the lost in the midst of moving on with life. The tasks are not necessarily achieved in any order, but all are necessary for most effective recovery.

Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Grief does not move through stages, and it does not finish. My work with loss is less about resolution than about finding a way to carry it that does not require you to keep it quiet. I am particularly passionate about working with the losses that go unrecognized — a miscarriage, an estrangement, a loss no one around you counts as one — because grief with no sanctioned place to go tends to get heavier.

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.

Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LCAC
While grief is a healthy response to loss, sometimes these losses have trauma attached. I've been able to utilize EMDR in a way that reduces the trauma to move through the grief process rather than remain stuck.

Dr. Daniel Cantor
Psychologist, Psy. D.
The primary focus on my work is living a your life with meaning and purpose. There are many moments through which the meaning of life can be felt. If you have had a loss and are the moment of grief or if you experience of loss is in the past therapy can be the place to understand and process that experience well. The memory of life and your sense of intactness may need restoration or reformation.
