Loss or Grief
The Refuge, A Healing Place
Treatment Center
Everybody experiences grief and loss differently. If you’ve lost a loved one, the way you experience the loss will be influenced by the closeness of the relationship, the nature and type of relationship, the closeness of the relationship, and the nature of the loss. When the loss involves a situation such as job loss or divorce, your reaction is affected by how significant the situation was to you, if it provided you with a sense of purpose, and whether you feel the loss will lower others opinions of you. Grief may be affected by our methods of coping, life experiences, personality style, culture, religion, and often, social rules that dictate accepted manners of grieving.

Margie Schlesinger
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker LCSW, LCSW-C
I am fortunate to have extensive training in grief and loss where I have helped individuals, couples, and families work through the pain of losing a loved one due to natural death, murder, or suicide. I also have personal experience with pregnancy loss and have helped an extensive amount of individuals and couples with this horrific pain, in addition to the pain of infertility. It has also been a privilege to help those working through the need to exit a relationship with someone close to them due to narcissistic tendencies, personality disorders or addiction.

Dr. Christina J. Gonzalez
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LMHC, NCC
Have you lost someone important to you in your life and are struggling to move forward? Do people try to tell you that you need to grieve differently or make you feel wrong for not grieving the way they think you should? Grief is a very personal reaction to loss in our can impact us very deeply, sometimes changing our entire lives. After a significant loss, we tend to start seeing the world as “before” and “after” the loss occurred. We can find ourselves feeling deeply rooted emotions of sadness, of anger, of betrayal, or of longing or even find ourselves feeling numb and not able to feel anything at all.
I’m no stranger to grief. While I have had extensive training in my 20 years of being a licensed mental health counselor, my experience goes beyond that training to my personal experiences with loss- including the lost of my elder son when he was barely 23. Even though we will all lose someone close to us sooner or later, when the time comes, often times we are unprepared. My experience was not your experience but my experience taught me so much more than any book or workshop could teach me. I love bringing honor to my son in many ways but one of those ways is by helping others manage their issues with grief and loss and help them learn to move forward while never forgetting the ones they have left behind. We are the sum total of all of the people we love and all of the experiences we have had and even though our loss may never be replaced, we CAN learn to create a new life in the new circumstances.
My counseling style is warm and interactive and I strongly believe that ANYONE can make changes in their life. My passion is helping YOU create a life you love and relationships that nurture and support you.
It takes courage to take the steps to create a more fulfilling, happier life and to take the first steps towards making changes. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you!
