Grief and Loss Counseling in Sherrelwood, CO.

I am a prolonged grief therapist trained by The Prolonged Grief Institute at Colombia University. The following are the cornerstones of my approach to Grief and Loss: Grief is the natural response to loss and it doesn’t have a time limit. Grief doesn’t go away completely, but we change our relationship to it. Adapting is different from coping. Adapting happens naturally. It’s what living things do when we are faced with meaningful changes.

As an experienced Christian Counselor and ordained pastor, I’ve supported many men through the grief process. If you’re grieving, I will provide a supportive space for you to process your emotions. Because grief is a normal part of being human, I can’t take it away or rush you through it. However, I can help you identify barriers to grief, and help you prevent the grief process from becoming stuck. I know grief professionally. But I also know grief personally. Losing one of my best friends and my beloved grandparents was hard enough, but facing the untimely death of my father was, and is, a uniquely painful experience. If given the chance, I would be honored to help you process your grief.

There can be intense emotional pain associated with grief and loss. Sometimes we use unhealthy means of numbing the pain. My goal is to assist you in allowing yourself to go through the grieving process and get to the other side. When we experience a loss, grieving is the natural way of letting go of that which we can no longer have and allow space within us to open up to things we can have. This does not mean we forget or discard the person, item or situation we have lost but that we put things into a productive perspective. Therapeutic approaches: client-centered, relaxation techniques, emotion regulation, skill building and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing)

The death of a loved one is possibly the single most difficult experience that anyone can face. Seeking out counseling is a good way to handle the grief and loss that come after experiencing loss. Your counselor can help you explore the intense feelings of sadness and loss. Many people are expected to continue their normal daily activities after a loss, such as going to work and taking care of family. Therefore, they are unable to fully experience and explore their grief. Yet research has shown that the more deeply you can feel and understand your pain the better prepared you will be to move beyond your grief and re-enter normal life. Call today: (970) 227-2770.
