Licensed Psychoanalyst, LP, M.A., NCPsyA
Grief and loss are almost impossible to write about. You've lost someone or something. Perhaps a loved one, a relationship, a status in your chosen field, a lifestyle you once enjoyed. Most of the time the grief I see in patients who come to my office have lost someone who used to play a large part of their life. A family member. a close friend, someone you thought you'd spend the rest of your life with.
There's no timeline for grief. There are no set "stages" to have to pass through and check off the list. It takes as long as it takes to get through it. I once worked with someone who lost a dear friend to suicide. It was unthinkable, and the pain seemed too much to bear. After a certain point she felt she "should be over it." In fact some people even said that to her. No. You don't "just get over it." You grieve. There's a hole in your life that seems unfillable, and sometimes it is. But that doesn't mean you have to forget about it, or don't get to move on with the other parts of your life.
If it was a relationship, and the issue was someone bailed on you, ghosted you, cheated on you, wants to divorce you, that, too, needs a period of time to grieve the loss. In some cases reconciliation is possible, others not. Together we work on what's realistic, how to accept your loss, and to understand you are allowed to grieve as long as you need to.

Dr. David Amarel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
My training & experience ranges from psychotherapy & assessment of adults, couples, & teens to counseling persons with AIDS & survivors of trauma with acute PTSD. Whether you seek to overcome a specific trauma or to break a chronic life pattern, to work toward achieving your purpose, I will meet you where you are at. As you know, grief can be coping with the shock but it is also a kind of one-sided relationship work. I can help you with that.

Eve Picower
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The loss of a loved one is one of life's greatest stressors. I provide a safe space to process the loss(es), whether that is in the past, present, or future, and explore how it impacts your sense of self, the world, relationships, and your future. Therapy can help with the feelings of isolation that often accompany loss and grief.

Emilia Eva Mikrut
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Death is a universal and inevitable experience, and yet being in the midst of grief often feels so lonely. It can bring on unimaginable pain, a well of complicated feelings, and a sense of alienation. Losing one person can also have a way of sneaking into other relationships, whether it's in the form of anxiety about other potential losses or frustration at those around you missing the mark in their attempts at providing emotional support. I've worked with clients who have sought therapy while bracing for an impending death or after experiencing a major loss, including folks serving as primary caregivers to terminally-ill loved ones. I use an accepting and grounded approach to try and make space for all of the messy feelings that come up during grief. Together we'll sit in the profound discomfort that is grief, instead of pushing back against it. I've found it's this process that, with time, opens up the space to begin making sense of loss and reimagining what life could be.

Dr. Lois Horowitz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Ph.D., LCSW
Grief is a natural and deeply personal response to loss—whether it’s the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or another significant life change. While grief is something we all experience in our own way, it can sometimes feel overwhelming. Feelings of sadness, anxiety, anger, and deep loneliness may come in waves and be hard to manage on your own.
If you’re struggling to navigate the emotional weight of loss, you don’t have to go through it alone.
In therapy, I provide a safe, supportive space where you can begin to make sense of what you’re feeling. Together, we can explore your experience of grief at your own pace, without judgment. Through this process, you can begin to find relief, make space for healing, and eventually reconnect with a sense of meaning and peace.
Grief is not something to “get over”—but with time and support, you can learn to carry it with greater ease.

Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Grieving can be a difficult process, and experiencing a loss is a time when many people seek outside support. Often, friends and family struggle with supporting us through the difficult process of grieving, and a professional can offer the support you need. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can learn how to cope with emotions that arise as a result of loss. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, you can work through the grieving process and how it may be impacting your life.

Who wants to feel better?
You, or else you wouldn't be looking at psychotherapists websites. But wait, there's more...maybe you're not sure you can feel better. Maybe you've never been to a psychotherapist before & this is all new to you or was something that "other people" did.

Manhattan is one of the most therapist-dense places in the world, with independent practices concentrated on the Upper West Side, in Chelsea, Midtown, and the East Village, serving an extraordinarily high per-capita demand for mental health care. The borough's concentration of finance, media, law, and healthcare professionals generates consistent demand for therapists experienced with high-stakes careers, perfectionism, and the emotional costs of extreme professional ambition. Manhattan also serves as the entry point for many immigrants from Latin America, Southeast Asia, and West Africa, and multilingual therapists make up a significant portion of the local clinical community. Columbia University Irving Medical Center, NYU Langone, and numerous academic training clinics provide institutional anchors and training pipelines for the borough's large private practice ecosystem.
