Loss or 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.

Loss or Grief
Dr. Pam Heilman
Psychologist, Psy.D., LCP
There is no one right way to grieve a loss. We often associate grief with losing a loved one but it can occur with other significant life changes such as the end of a relationship, loss of a pet, job loss, changes in your family dynamic, or other significant life changes. I have worked with many clients experiencing grief and they often share with me that they feel alone and misunderstood by others. As human beings, we often struggle to know how to respond to someone who is grieving. As a result, people who are grieving may feel isolated or try to put on a brave face so that they do not feel like a burden to others. In therapy, you can come exactly as you are and you don't have to put on a brave face. In our work together, you will have the space to process your thoughts and feelings associated with your grief. An important goal is to help you find ways to honor the loss while still allowing room for new experiences and meaningful connections in your life.

New Leaf Counseling and Wellness
Psychologist
Working through loss and grief requires a compassionate and sensitive approach that acknowledges the unique journey of each individual through the grieving process. Drawing from a blend of therapeutic modalities such as grief counseling, narrative therapy, and mindfulness techniques, I aim to create a safe space where clients can explore and express their emotions freely. By providing validation, support, and practical coping strategies, I assist clients in navigating the complex emotions and adjustments that accompany loss. Through this specialized expertise, I help clients honor their loved ones, find meaning in their experiences, and ultimately rebuild a sense of hope and resilience in the face of profound loss.

There are many ways that people experience and express grief and bereavement, and I can help meet you where you are at and support you in moving forward.

In our work together, I provide a compassionate space to process emotions without judgment, make meaning of your experience, and move at a pace that feels right for you.

Grief is a natural response to loss, but it is not limited to the death of a loved one. Individuals may grieve relationships, identities, opportunities, health, or life stages. Cultural and family expectations often shape how grief is expressed and understood.
