Loss or Grief
Paul Sather
Psychologist, PhD
Grief and loss are often confusing and difficult to work through. I come alongside you in your grief and help soothe the pain of the emptiness that is often so painful. When we walk into the darkness of the sunset, the sunrise comes much more quickly than when we walk away in an attempt to avoid it.

Dealing with loss and grief involves allowing yourself to experience and accept your feelings, seeking support from loved ones or a therapist, taking care of your physical and emotional well-being, finding healthy outlets for expressing your emotions, being patient with yourself as you heal, remembering and honoring your loved one, and seeking professional help if needed. It's important to acknowledge your grief, lean on others for support, take care of yourself, express your emotions, be patient with your healing process, remember your loved one, and seek professional guidance if necessary.

Loss or Grief
Along the Path Counseling Services, P.C.
Licensed Professional Counselor
Grief comes in and out of our lives, in different shapes and forms, often more than we would like in life. During grief, you can feel isolated in a whirlwind of emotions. It can be hard to know how to navigate our feelings amid such immense change. The clinician’s role, in addition to offering techniques, which will help alleviate distressing symptoms and move toward coping and healing, is to validate and be present with the griever’s inner and outer experiences and the multi-dimensional levels (somatic, psychic, and spiritual) of pain and distress.

Loss or Grief
Ashley Miller Nolan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
“Each person's grief is as unique as their fingerprint. But what everyone has in common is that no matter how they grieve, they share a need for their grief to be witnessed. That doesn't mean needing someone to try to lessen it or reframe it for them. The need is for someone to be fully present to the magnitude of their loss without trying to point out the silver lining.” ― David Kessler, Finding Meaning: The Sixth Stage of Grief
I align with this quote. Grief and loss come in many forms and ultimately in death. My heart for grief work is being present and holding space to let you experience the full measure of your grief while staying anchored in the here and now. You will drown and then realize you are the ocean.
