Elaine Skoulas

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Grief and loss may be one of the most universal experiences, yet it can be extremely isolating experiencing grief in a society that does not know how to talk about these issues. My experience includes grief training and working with individuals and groups specifically with bereavement, death, and grief.

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, 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 motherhood narrative.

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.

Judith Nitchie

Counselor/Therapist, LMFT36770
Grieving the death or loss of someone or of something that was important to us is an inevitable part of life. Your emotions might be 'all over the place,' from deep sadness to relief. Anger, confusion, frustration, and reassessment can also be part of it. Wherever you are in your experience it can be helpful to share and talk it through with a professional experienced in this area.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Lisa Paer, counselor/therapist
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.

New York City, New York therapist: Make Marriage Better, psychologist
Loss or Grief

Make Marriage Better

Psychologist, Ph.D.
At Make Marriage Better, we understand that loss and grief can profoundly affect individuals and their relationships, often bringing up intense emotions and unresolved fears. Our approach focuses on creating a safe space for clients to process their grief, whether it stems from the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or other significant life changes. Utilizing the Deconstructing Anxiety™ method, we help individuals identify the core fears associated with their loss—such as fear of abandonment, loss of identity, or fear of moving forward alone—and the “chief defenses” that may emerge in response to these fears. By guiding clients to do the opposite of these defenses, we facilitate a journey toward healing and acceptance, allowing them to express their emotions authentically and rediscover hope. This process not only supports individual healing but also strengthens relationships by fostering open communication and deeper empathy among loved ones as they navigate the complex terrain of grief together.
