Loss or Grief
Jackie Ma
Psychologist, Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology
I have worked with individuals with serious and life-limiting illnesses who may be experiencing anticipatory grief in the context of their prognosis. Also, through working with older adults, I frequently support them in coping with grief that is a result of loss of loved ones and/or changes to their health and functioning. My goal is to support you through the grief process and to learn helpful coping strategies for grief.

Loss or Grief
Philip Cooke
Psychologist, PhD
The death of a loved one is hardly ever simple - it stirs strong, complicated, and upsetting feelings within us. This is particularly true when we lose someone close to us - a partner, parent, child - or someone with whom we had a complicated relationship. I believe the key to successful grieving is allowing ourselves to feel, identify, and make sense of all our feelings around the loss, especially feelings we’re reluctant to accept.
Having worked previously as a palliative care psychologist within a hospital setting, I have accompanied many families and caregivers before, during, and after their loved one’s death. I am familiar with helping others navigate the often uncomfortable psychic terrain of grief. I work well with those looking to explore their grief and find relief through expressing their feelings and making meaning of their loved one’s death.

Loss or Grief
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.

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.
