Loss or Grief
Matthew Kijak, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Grief can be a heavy and overwhelming burden to bear, especially after losing a loved one. As a therapist, my goal is to provide a safe and supportive space for you to navigate the grieving process, in your own unique way, and come to terms with your loss. Together, we will honor the memory of your loved one and explore the complex emotions that come with grief. Using evidence-based approaches such as grief counseling and trauma-informed care, I will support you in finding ways to cope with your loss, and healing looks different for each one of us.
I understand that losing a loved one can change us permanently, and that healing takes time. My role as a therapist is to walk with you, to listen, and to guide you on this journey of self-discovery and understanding. My goal is to empower you to find a new sense of balance and inner peace as you navigate the grieving process in a way that works best for you. Don't hesitate to reach out to me today, together we can work towards healing and finding meaning in your life again.

Loss or Grief
Jennifer Nyhan
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Everyone will lose a loved one at some point. It is an inescapable experience. Some losses, though, can leave you feeling untethered and uncertain how to put one foot in front of the next. I am here to help you manage emotions that feel overwhelming, tap into your strengths and coping skills, and work to develop new tools to help you cope and function after loss. I specialize in traumatic loss, which occurs when loss comes suddenly, and often violently. This type of loss leaves those left behind often dealing with both grief and trauma symptoms and responses. I work with individuals, families and groups to address both the trauma response as well as the grief. An often-overlooked loss is infertility. I help individuals and couples work through the stress, anxiety, depression, stigma, anger, and relationship strain that can result from the struggles to conceive.

Loss or Grief
Dan Fink
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
All change includes loss. We need to find ways to honor our past relationships and experiences. Losing a loved one, ending a relationship, or moving away from our childhood home - we need to make mindful choices about what we keep with us, in our hearts and minds. And we need space to let loss move through us.

Loss or Grief
Ana Velouise, Perinatal Mental Health Specialist
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
When the unexpected happens, it’s a shock to the system. When you experience an abortion, miscarriage, TFMR, or stillbirth, feelings of guilt, shame, rage (or even secret relief) may be present. Maybe you’re reeling from a pregnancy loss and don’t understand why it’s hitting you so hard. Not only are you processing the loss of your fetus or infant, but you’re also grieving the loss of a future you thought you’d have as a parent of this child.
Grief can be all-consuming, non-linear, and isolating. Others may not understand what you’re going through, but processing this unimaginable experience with a caring professional can help. Together, we’ll tend to your pain, grieve your loss, develop realistic coping tools for the present, and integrate the experience into your parenthood narrative.

Loss or Grief
Lisa Paer
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, EMDR Certified
Losing someone or something you love can be one of the most difficult and painful experiences in life. It can leave you feeling overwhelmed, lonely, and hopeless. I went through it myself after the death of my father, and I know how hard it can be to cope with the emotions and challenges that come with bereavement.
I can provide a safe and supportive space where you can express your feelings, process your loss, and find ways to heal. I use evidence-based techniques such as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), and EMDR to help you process the pain of grief and adjust to a world without your loved one.
I respect your individuality and your unique way of grieving. I will not judge you or try to change you. I will listen to you and collaborate with you to achieve your goals. Grief is a natural and normal response to loss, and I can help support you though it.

Loss or Grief
Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Death. The most universal of life experiences. So why are we afraid to talk about it? We use euphemistic language in an effort to . . . what exactly? Does imagining her in “a better place” take the pain away? What do we say when children ask if they can visit this place, or when the deceased will return home? And then the casseroles and phone calls taper off. Always too soon. Then people stop asking, as though their questions will bring her to mind and cause you to suffer. Don’t they know you think of her every day?
Grief doesn’t ever really go away; it changes over time. Just when you think you are coping better with the loss, the holidays arrive, or the one-year anniversary hits, and there you are, overwhelmed by difficult emotions once again. I would be honored to sit alongside you on this difficult, and often lonely, journey.
