Dr. Mike Strand
Psychologist, PsyD
Grief can envelop you in a shadow, making the world seem dim and distant as you navigate the aftermath of loss. The journey through sorrow is deeply personal, marked by moments of unbearable loneliness and memories that both comfort and wound. My dedicated support for grief and loss offers a guiding light through the darkness, providing a compassionate space to heal, remember, and gradually find your way forward.

HUGH R STEWART III
Hypnotherapist, Ph.D., ACHt.
Many of us have not fully grieved events and people from our past, especially men. I have had people who have been numb most of their lives sob heavily after Hypnotherapy, Heart Centered Breathwork, and emotional release work. Many times there is anger underneath that prevents sadness and the grieving process as anger comes before sadness in grief. Clients describe a huge weight being lifted off their shoulders when they are able to let out the anger and fully grieve afterwards.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Loss is inevitable. We all die and we all lose people, relationships, and states of being that we once loved. If we open ourselves to live an authentic, honest, interdependent life, we are sure to experience loss and grief. Many of us fear it so much that we develop a multitude of ways to avoid it, strike a connection balance that we believe will help us protect ourselves later (yet that often robs our joy in the meantime), and use substances or other numbing techniques to help us avoid the complicated process of grief. I believe we can all benefit from learning to appreciate that loss is inevitable, and to learn to grieve in a way that enables us to move forward with compassion and fulfillment.

Dr. Kimberly E. Johnson
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, APIT
Unfortunately, we live in an age of excess uncertainty due to violence, natural disaster, disease, war and various health issues. Loss of loved ones or others close to us can lead to uncomplicated or complicated grief. I help clients accept and process the emotions and life changes caused by unexpected or anticipated loss.
