Grief
Christina Dee
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A. LMFT
Grief rearranges the landscape of our life often disorienting and painful. It’s important to know how to attend to your grief and give it the time and space it needs. I have extensive clinical experience supporting individuals grieving a death or coping with a life-limiting illness as well as providing individual and group support for those healing from PTSD and death related trauma issues.

Grief
Pedro F. Baez
Life Coach, LVN, MCC, CHC - Master Certified Coach
I assist and guide clients in honoring their pain, their grief, their anger. I help them craft a uniquely theirs structure so they can ease into their confusion, their emotions, their feelings; their overwhelming sense of loss. I hold a space for them to feel it all. I invite them not to push grief away, not to resist it. I encourage them not to be anything or anyone other than who and what they are, as they feel a deep sense of disappointment, aloneness and sadness. It's all LOVE, I assure them, and love flows as best it can, sometimes as deep, lacerating, unbearable emotional pain. I support grieving women and men as they ease into the bittersweet discomfort of grieving; I coach them not to be afraid; to embrace the feeling and know, that at some point, the hurt becomes sweet remembrance, the longing transforms into a sense of clear, loving presence, and the wounds grow beautiful scars to remind us of how beautifully human, spiritual, generous and precios we all are.

Grief
Tracy Sachs (Singh)
Therapist, MA, AMFT
Grief takes many forms. It may follow the death of someone you love, the ending of a relationship, infertility or pregnancy loss, a major life transition, or the loss of a future you imagined for yourself. Rather than treating grief as something to “get over,” I offer space to tend what has been lost, make meaning of the experience, and allow a changed life to gradually take shape.

Grief
Jonathan Kruger Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
While the loss of loved ones is a natural and normal part of life, loss that is unexpected, untimely, accidental, or drawn out, may lead to trauma for those left behind. The grief associated with such trauma can be debilitating and, perhaps even more challenging, isolating. Such grief can also have a cascading effect, leading to deeper depression, anxiety, fear, and maladaptive behaviors to address these overwhelming emotions. While grieving is natural and must run its course, I believe strongly that any loss can be helped through exploration of the corresponding emotions and behaviors with an objective and trusted therapist.
My approach to grief and loss is anchored in my own experience. Having lost most of my family over a very brief window of time, I know well the many emotions that accompany such unexpected and sudden loss. My treatment approach is a merger of my clinical skill set with a deeply empathetic ear, anchored in the coping mechanisms I personally deployed to help manage the many transitions through my own grief. In my work with my patients around loss and grief, I focus on navigating the negative emotions that can accompany loss (guilt, anger, hopelessness, overwhelming sadness) while, over time and when appropriate, jointly crafting with my patients a narrative that celebrates the life of those that have moved on, and facilitates the release of those emotions that can keep patients “stuck” in the trauma of unexpected loss.
