Loss or Grief
Erik Edler
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LMFT
Life is full of loss, and it can be so devastating, and often even life-changing. It might be the loss of a job, the loss of one's health, the loss of a dear friend, or even the loss of a beloved mom or dad, brother or sister, husband, wife, or partner, or that special dog or cat that's been a source of unconditional love in you life. Loss and grief are a unique kind of pain and suffering, and there is a process for getting through it in a healthy way, to a more hopeful tomorrow. If you're suffering grief or loss in your life, I'm here to help.

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.

Victoria Miller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have worked in hospice and with seniors in grief. Life can turn upside down when a loved one dies, like the rug has been pulled out from under you. If you feel overwhelmed and need someone to talk to I am here, let's talk.

Maria Gray
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, NMP
Grief and loss is a part of life. Therapy offers a place where you can put those thoughts and feelings into words and allow yourself to feel whatever is coming up, emotionally and somatically.
