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.

Loss and grief are part of life, from losing a family member or friend to death, the ending of a relationship, watching your children leave home, losing a job, aging.

Grief
Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
Grief doesn’t follow a timeline—and it doesn’t always look the way people expect. You might be holding it together on the outside while falling apart inside. You may be showing up to work, caring for others, or getting through your day just fine—until you're not. Whether your loss was recent or years ago, the weight of grief can feel disorienting, isolating, or even invisible.
I work with adults navigating many forms of grief: the death of a loved one, anticipatory loss, traumatic or complicated grief, and losses that society often overlooks—like the loss of a pet, estranged relationships, identity shifts, or ambiguous goodbyes that have no closure. In a culture that often minimizes grief or meets it with discomfort, my role is to offer a steady presence and a space where your pain is valid, welcome, and never rushed.
At The Momentum Practice, we’ll honor what’s been lost, make space for the full range of emotions, and work toward a sense of acceptance—not forgetting or moving on, but learning how to live with grief in a way that feels more sustainable and integrated. Whether your grief shows up as sorrow, numbness, guilt, anger, or all of the above, you are not broken—and you don’t have to carry it alone.
With over 15 years of experience, I help clients move through grief with compassion, clarity, and care. Together, we’ll begin to make meaning in the midst of heartache and gently reconnect with hope, strength, and even moments of peace. I’d be honored to journey alongside you.

Grief
Mr. Dan Pugel
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor
Everyone will face loss in their life whether it be a loved one, job, or friend. Sometimes we have time to prepare. Other times it happens suddenly without any warning. While grief and loss is a normal aspect of life it can be a difficult experience to move through.
Grief is the emotion that is associated with loss. Appropriate grieving is a helpful part of processing the loss and moving on with life. Some so called authorities report that between two and five years is common to experience loss and grief. It is actually not necessary for healing to take this amount of time. Effective grief counseling can assist the individual in moving through the experience within a much shorter period.

Grief
Tatiana Turo-Handy, PsyD., PMH-C
Psychologist, PsyD. PMH-C
Grief can feel isolating, disorienting, and overwhelming, whether it stems from the loss of a loved one, a pregnancy, a relationship, a life role, or a hoped‑for future. As a bilingual (Spanish/English) psychologist, I offer compassionate, evidence‑based therapy to help individuals navigate the emotional weight of loss, make sense of their experience, and find a path toward healing at their own pace. Therapy provides a steady, supportive space to explore sadness, anger, confusion, and moments of meaning as you rebuild a sense of connection and stability.

Lexington sits at the center of Kentucky's Bluegrass region with a character distinct from Louisville — the University of Kentucky drives a significant student and young professional population alongside a traditional agricultural and equestrian community. The city's proximity to Appalachia means therapists frequently encounter the mental health effects of the region's opioid crisis, intergenerational poverty, and community grief tied to economic decline. UK HealthCare — the University of Kentucky's academic medical system — provides institutional mental health resources, with private practices concentrated in Chevy Chase, Beaumont, and the Hamburg area. Lexington's horse industry also supports a niche clientele of equestrian athletes and industry professionals navigating performance pressure and career identity.
