Grief
Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
There is a deeper understanding of the value of life, when humans have had the bitter of loss. As a counselor I have assisted with thousands of such situations. However as a child and teen, I saw it as my calling to help the adults in my life manage grief. Such pain and challenge were my first therapy interventions. I was deeply shocked to find that my four years of graduate counseling training had absolutely zero information about grief and loss. Now as a seasoned clinician, understanding there is a marked difference between grief and depression, I feel it is a special privilege to be able to help people through grief.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
In my work as a psychologist, I support individuals through the complex and deeply personal journey of loss and grief with empathy and care. I use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients process their emotions and challenge any unhelpful thought patterns that may arise during their grieving process. I also incorporate techniques from narrative therapy to help individuals make sense of their loss and integrate it into their life story. My approach is warm and supportive, providing a safe space for clients to express their feelings and memories. By working collaboratively with each person, I assist them in finding meaning, adjusting to life changes, and eventually discovering a sense of hope and healing. My goal is to help clients navigate their grief in a way that honors their experiences while supporting their path towards emotional recovery, personal growth and resilience.

Grief
Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
Michael views divorce as a profound life transition that requires more than just legal navigation; it demands the emotional processing of "stuck" grief and the rebuilding of a new, independent identity.
Divorce is rarely just the end of a legal contract; it is a complex psychological uncoupling that reshapes your identity, family dynamics, and sense of the future. With 35 years of clinical experience, Michael helps individuals and parents navigate the turbulent emotional landscape of separation, focusing on the "unspoken" grief and the shifts in self-perception that occur during this transition. By exploring the relational patterns that defined the marriage, he provides a space to process the loss without becoming defined by it. Whether you are navigating the initial crisis or working to establish a healthy co-parenting dynamic, the goal is to move through the pain toward a restored sense of agency and a new chapter built on self-awareness.

Grief
Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Whether a loss is expected or not, it is hard to go through each day with the heaviness that grief places in our bodies. I help parents who have lost pregnancies or babies, as well as adults struggling after the loss of a loved one. Our culture does not know how to talk about loss, making grief even more isolating. I provide attuned presence, healing through honoring all the emotions that come with loss. Using talk therapy as well as an eye movement therapy called Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), I can help you let go of distressing images that sometimes accompany experiences of loss. We will work together to help you honor your grief, make space for the loss, and build a life of meaning and purpose.
