Loss and Grief are experienced with death and also many other incidents. There is a non-linear path to healing and techniques to help in the process. History shows the human condition as experiencing tragedy and finding a way to survive. Therapy is part of that way.

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.

Loss or Grief
John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, APCC
Loss is inevitable and timeless - grief is not. A large portion of his journey was working with Zen Hospice, and helping individuals and families deal with loss and transform their grief into something else. It is a journey best not walked alone, and the practice is walking through the middle, and learning that it will pass.
