Grief
Katherine Rabinowitz
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.

Jazmin Melendez
Pre-Licensed Professional, LMSW
Grief doesn’t follow a timeline or look the same for everyone. Loss can affect your emotions, relationships, identity, routines, and sense of what life looks like moving forward. I offer space to process grief without pressure to “move on” or experience it in a particular way. Together, we can honor what you’ve lost, make room for the emotions that come with it, and explore how to carry your experience while continuing to live meaningfully.

Grief
Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help clients navigate grief, loss, and major changes that alter their sense of stability, identity, or direction. Grief can be especially difficult for people who are used to staying productive, composed, or in control. In therapy, we make space for the emotional impact of loss while also helping clients cope with responsibilities, relationships, and daily life. My goal is to support clients in moving through grief with honesty, self-compassion, and resilience.

I understand that we are forever changed from grief and that often others around us do not how to properly support us when we are grieving. I provide a space where we take the time needed to experience your loss and figure out what your life will look like going forward.
