Matthew Kijak, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Grief can be a heavy and overwhelming burden to bear, especially after losing a loved one. As a therapist, my goal is to provide a safe and supportive space for you to navigate the grieving process, in your own unique way, and come to terms with your loss. Together, we will honor the memory of your loved one and explore the complex emotions that come with grief. Using evidence-based approaches such as grief counseling and trauma-informed care, I will support you in finding ways to cope with your loss, and healing looks different for each one of us.
I understand that losing a loved one can change us permanently, and that healing takes time. My role as a therapist is to walk with you, to listen, and to guide you on this journey of self-discovery and understanding. My goal is to empower you to find a new sense of balance and inner peace as you navigate the grieving process in a way that works best for you. Don't hesitate to reach out to me today, together we can work towards healing and finding meaning in your life again.

Claudia Owens Shields
Psychologist, M.A., Ph.D.
Loss and the related grief and fear are possibly the most difficult things that we as human beings experience. Whether it is the loss of a loved one (including pets) through death or a breakup, or the loss of a home, family unit, job, or the loss of one's own health, I can help. I received training at Loved Ones of Homicide Victims over 30 years ago, and I have experience helping many clients navigate deep grief and fear due to loss.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
All change includes loss. We need to find ways to honor our past relationships and experiences. Losing a loved one, ending a relationship, or moving away from our childhood home - we need to make mindful choices about what we keep with us, in our hearts and minds. And we need space to let loss move through us.

Jennifer Nyhan
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Everyone will lose a loved one at some point. It is an inescapable experience. Some losses, though, can leave you feeling untethered and uncertain how to put one foot in front of the next. I am here to help you manage emotions that feel overwhelming, tap into your strengths and coping skills, and work to develop new tools to help you cope and function after loss. I specialize in traumatic loss, which occurs when loss comes suddenly, and often violently. This type of loss leaves those left behind often dealing with both grief and trauma symptoms and responses. I work with individuals, families and groups to address both the trauma response as well as the grief. An often-overlooked loss is infertility. I help individuals and couples work through the stress, anxiety, depression, stigma, anger, and relationship strain that can result from the struggles to conceive.

Navigating Loss and Grief: Finding Light in the Shadows with Well Coached Life
Grief is a journey that often feels like a never-ending labyrinth, especially when we've experienced the heart-wrenching loss of a loved one. At Well Coached Life, we understand that the pain of loss can be an ongoing battle, and we're here to offer support and guidance to help you find your way through the darkness.
The Weight of Memories:
When we lose someone dear to us, the calendar transforms. Dates that once held anticipation and joy become painful reminders of our profound loss. Life's milestones and anniversaries, which were once celebrations, can become days we dread. On these occasions, the wound of loss, which we've painstakingly worked to heal, can re-open, thrusting us back into a whirlwind of memories and haunting "what ifs."
From Dull Ache to Searing Pain:
The dull ache of grief and sadness, which we've learned to carry with us, can suddenly transform into a searing, sharp pain. It's as if we're transported back to the very moment when we first received that devastating news. We find ourselves at the bottom of that cold, dark hole we've so painstakingly clawed our way out of, inch by inch.
Our Compassionate Support:
At Well Coached Life, we're here to remind you that healing is not a linear process. Grief has no set timeline, and it's okay to experience those moments of intense sorrow. Our experienced coaches provide a safe space for you to share your emotions, explore your memories, and find the strength to move forward.
A Personalized Journey:
We recognize that each person's grief journey is unique, and the pain of loss is deeply personal. Our coaching services are tailored to your specific needs, ensuring you receive the support and strategies that resonate with your experiences.
Rediscover Light in the Shadows:
Grief may change the way we experience life's milestones, but it doesn't have to define our future. With Well Coached Life, you can embark on a journey of healing, self-discovery, and finding meaning in the midst of loss. Join us today, and together, we'll help you find the light in the shadows of grief.
