Loss or Grief
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.

Stella Zweben Samuel, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have worked for many years with those individuals who have experienced loss. Some of my clinical work is educating clients on the grieving process and allowing for further understanding of how the client is impacted by grief and loss. My clients who experience loss feel supported and encouraged to understand the feelings and thoughts they are having. I provide a non-judgmental space for individuals who have a history of loss and grief to feel supported.

It is essential to recognize that everyone's grief is unique - there is no right or wrong way to grieve, and there's no set timeline for the healing process. In our therapeutic relationship, I aim to honor your individual experience, provide you with a safe and non-judgmental space to express your emotions, and accompany you through this difficult time. By using a variety of therapeutic approaches tailored to your unique needs, my goal is to help you better understand your feelings, foster resilience, and facilitate the processing of your loss. Remember, grief is not a linear process, but a testament to the love and connection you had. You are not alone in this journey, and it's okay to seek help.
