Grief
Gracie Orellano
Marriage and Family Therapist, ALMFT
Throughout life there will be numerous experiences with grief. Whether it is familial loss, pet loss, financial loss, etc. it can feel impossible to get through. With therapy, you can process what it means to you. It can be difficult to face these emotions on your own and can feel overwhelming to begin processing them. Through therapy we can utilize different tools to enhance your emotional awareness, understand what narratives arise from your grief, and engage in creative ways to hold the grief while you continue to live your life.

Grief
Paul Sather
Psychologist, PhD
Grief and loss are often confusing and difficult to work through. I come alongside you in your grief and help soothe the pain of the emptiness that is often so painful. When we walk into the darkness of the sunset, the sunrise comes much more quickly than when we walk away in an attempt to avoid it.

Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Grief and loss look different on everyone. Grief can happen when someone dies but it can also happen after a breakup, separation, friendship loss, job change/loss, injury, illness, a move, etc. The intensity and presentation of grief symptoms are different for everyone. Our culture and traditions can also inform our grief. Let's talk about it together.
