15 Years Experience
Loss or Grief
Christensen and Sons, Inc.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW: LCSW, LSW, PEL
Lose can be painful. Losing someone or something you love or care deeply about never arrives in our lives at a good time. During our periods of loss we may experience all kinds of difficult emotions and it may feel like the pain and sadness each of us experience may never end. Anger, anxiety or depression may be overwhelming. These reactions to a significant loss are normal. As your counselor, we will journey with you during this time of grief. We will not tell you the right or wrong way to grieve, but we can guide you with healthy ways to cope with the pain that, in time, can renew you and permit you to move on. Rather than tolerating your loss we will assist you in accepting the loss.

Loss or Grief
Teri L. Murphy
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., LCPC
Grief most often occurs with the loss of a loved one. However, many life events and transitions cause grief or loss as well. Loss of a job, a dream, a hope, a goal; divorce and so on. Trauma often fails in the category or grief/loss for many indivdualsl. It's important for the therapist to listen in a supportive manner to individuals’ concerns. That is what I provide for those struggling with grief. Listening in a supportive is essential for healing. With trauma grief I help the client to understand and recognize the feelings that often occur, such as numbness, helplessness, anxiety, anger and deep sadness. Regardless of the source of grief I assist clients in finding their own strength and learn to develop coping skills that eventually can lead to pre-loss functioning. The heart of grief counseling is validation. Each person grieves in their own way and that needs to be understood in a caring way.

Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I'd offer a compassionate space for someone dealing with loss or grief, helping them express their feelings and understand their journey. Together, we'd tackle any emotional issues or traumas that might be making things harder. Through therapy, I'd help them find healthy ways to cope, manage overwhelming emotions, and rediscover their sense of self. I'd also support them in adjusting to changes in relationships and finding comfort in their social circle. The goal is to help them find healing and meaning in their grief, while addressing any underlying emotional issues or trauma.

Loss or Grief
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.
