Loss or Grief
Ricardo Peña
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Grief counseling , also known as bereavement therapy, is a form of therapy intended to help you cope with loss, like the death of a partner, family member, friend, colleague, career, position or pet. The death of a loved one can cause both emotional and physical pain that can sometimes impair your ability to function.

Loss or Grief
Tanya Samuelian
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.S., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Losing a loved one is an inevitable part of life, and the grieving process can be overwhelming and all-consuming. However, grief and loss extend beyond the death of a loved one; they can also encompass other experiences such as job loss, the end of a relationship, or a significant change in one's life. These losses can evoke feelings of grief and necessitate support and processing.
It is essential to recognize that there is no right or wrong way to grieve, and seeking therapy during this time can provide invaluable support. Therapy can assist in navigating the complex emotions associated with loss and finding healthy ways to honor and cope with our grief. You do not have to face this challenging time alone; together, we can navigate the journey of grief and embark on the path to healing. Take that important first step towards healing by scheduling an appointment today. Trust me, it can truly make a difference.

Loss or 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.

Sonny Granade
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Experiencing a major loss and the grief that follows can make us feel unmoored and overwhelmed, stranded someplace between who we once were and who we are becoming. I work with my clients to gently and compassionately explore what lays inside these vulnerable periods of transition, including the potential for growth and evolution.
