Loss or Grief
Paul W Anderson, PhD
Psychologist, Licensed counseling psychologist, Licensed Addictions counselor
Because loss is a regular part of life, so is grieving. Grief is an understandable and natural response to change and transition. Some of the most severe losses include losing a dear partner, your job, family member or good friend. Perhaps the most difficult loss occurs when we lose our hopes and dreams.
<br>I can help you move through your transitions. I can show you how to grieve in a healthy way so that your loss supports and matures you rather than tearing you down.

Loss or Grief
Melanie Bettes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, Coach
Losing someone or something important in our lives is so difficult to move through when we hear people say platitudes like 'they're in a better place'. True or not, it can feel dismissive of our own emotions. Others are so uncomfortable with OUR grief that they do everything they can to keep us from crying. Again, dismissing our feelings. Grief is a journey. There's no way around it, only through. I would love to hear about your loved one and what made them special to you. (Pets included!) Together, we'll come up with ways to honor the memory and time you had together.

Loss or Grief
Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
I offer a compassionate sanctuary for those navigating the profound and often turbulent waters of loss and grief. I understand that grief is not a linear journey but a complex tapestry of emotions that can engulf one's life. With a gentle and empathetic approach, I walk beside you through this journey, honoring your unique experience of loss. Together, we explore the depths of sorrow, seeking to understand and embrace the myriad feelings that come with bereavement. It's a path towards healing, not about moving on, but about finding a way to carry your loss with grace, integrating this profound experience into your life, and rediscovering a sense of wholeness and peace amidst the echoes of what was lost.

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.
