Loss or Grief
Ben Dickstein
Psychologist, PhD
I offer grief counseling for those who have endured a recent loss, as well as those struggling to come to terms with a loss from the more distant past. I specialize in issues related to complicated grief (aka prolonged grief), as well as losing someone to suicide. Often the clients I see tell me that they can't see their lives as possessing any purpose or meaning in the wake of their loss. Nor do they feel right about looking toward the future or trying to move forward, as they feel that this dishonors the memory of the deceased. Sometimes feelings of guilt or regret linger after loss, too. I help those grieving work through these types of issues and increase their level of connection with loved ones and friends.

Philip Cooke
Psychologist, PhD
The death of a loved one is hardly ever simple - it stirs strong, complicated, and upsetting feelings within us. This is particularly true when we lose someone close to us - a partner, parent, child - or someone with whom we had a complicated relationship. I believe the key to successful grieving is allowing ourselves to feel, identify, and make sense of all our feelings around the loss, especially feelings we’re reluctant to accept.
Having worked previously as a palliative care psychologist within a hospital setting, I have accompanied many families and caregivers before, during, and after their loved one’s death. I am familiar with helping others navigate the often uncomfortable psychic terrain of grief. I work well with those looking to explore their grief and find relief through expressing their feelings and making meaning of their loved one’s death.

Rick Rodgers
Counselor/Therapist, MSW, LCSW, CADC, CCTP, RYT 500
Grief losses, trauma, and it creates feelings of abandonment. If you don’t deal with your feelings or feelings, will deal with you. Often times this can cause substance-abuse and other types of addiction such a shopping, sex and gambling or social media. I can teach you how to deal with these complicated feelings that come with grief and get past that. Through evidence based therapy and meditations, you can create space with yourself and separate yourself from the mind that constantly speaks and the emotions that constantly creates suffering.
