Loss or Grief therapists in El Centro, California CA
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.

In addition to empathetic counseling I encourage the individual to join a grief counseling group. I often find that a person in deep grief may have unresolved issues with the deceased. I am aware of the many types of grief experiences as well. People may experience grief over the loss of a relationship, the death of a loved one or even a beloved pet.

Vanessa Wolter Holistic Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Experiencing loss is one of the most difficult experiences a person can face. Loss can come in many forms from the loss of a dream or ideal to the loss of a relationship to the loss of a loved one. I help resource clients as they heal from their loss by keeping them connected to self and community. There are many great resources that can help us move through grief. Tapping into self-compassion, leaning on loved ones, connecting with nature or spirituality. I offer guidance during these tough moments to help transform the grief into an opening to orient towards peace and what matters most to us.

Peggy Barrett
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, OTR/L
The amount of grief and loss in our lives has increased with this pandemic. It is something we can't ignore any longer. Grief is something that lingers as an emptiness in our heart. What helps is to express that loss with others and find ways to creatively identify it. I will help you to find ways to honor the loss and always hold those memories in your heart.
