Grief and Loss Counseling in Jupiter, FL.

Losing someone or something you love is profoundly painful. One of the greatest myths we hear is that “time heals all wounds.” In reality, time often deepens the ache unless we give ourselves permission to grieve. Healing requires space to mourn, honor what has been lost, and gently begin to carry it in a new way. It is my privilege to walk alongside clients as they move through grief toward healing, meaning, and peace.

Loss is an inevitable part of life. The way we respond to a loss is defined as grief. People grieve in various ways. If you are struggling with a recent loss and feel difficulty getting back to your old self, if you are concerned about a family member’s reaction to a loss, grief counseling can help. In sessions, we will talk about the grief process and what to expect so you can track where you are in the process. I will help you “get closure” with the loved one you lost, cherish the experiences you would like to keep and let go of the rest. We will explore the ways in which you can carry the meaningful experiences of the relationship with you while you move on and find joy in life.

We help our client to heal and process grief and loss through holding safe space for them to work through difficult emotions and experiences in a supportive environment. Everyone grieves differently, but it can be very beneficial to receive support from loved ones and therapists as you cope with grief and loss. Collaborative therapy, Emotionally-Focused therapy, grief psychoeducation, and techniques such as EMDR (Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy) can be especially helpful.

Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D approaches issues of grief & loss through the lens of innovation----instead of growing the same neural networks responsible for the pain in weekly therapy sessions, we reset the brain to move forward quicker and efficiently by working on the stuck limbic system so as to empower the person with more success and traction. For no one wants to stay in a grief mode for too long; but when you don’t include the brain in your work with someone, you risk describing the water to them while they drown and calling it success.

Loss is an extremely hard thing and finding a new reality without your old way of life can be even harder. Loss can be many things - a loved one, a friend, a pet, a job or a transition of something in your life you once had. It's a big deal. We often experience a range of emotions as a result - depression, anger, bargaining, pain, sadness - they are all so normal and yet overwhelming. At KML, we are here to be your support and help you get through this difficult time. Sometimes, it is just having a place to go where you can let the emotions out, other times it might be wanting to talk through the pain of the loss - everyone is different. We are here to walk through the pain with you.

Grief and loss can affect every part of a person’s life emotionally, physically, and relationally and there is no “right” way or timeline to grieve. My approach to grief and loss therapy is gentle, supportive, and individualized, honoring each client’s unique experience and relationship to their loss. I provide a calm, compassionate space where clients can express feelings openly, make sense of complex emotions, and process change at their own pace. Together, we focus on building coping strategies, fostering self-compassion, and finding ways to integrate the loss while continuing to move forward with meaning, balance, and emotional resilience.

Change is the one constant of life. Change involves both losses to grieve and transitions to process through. Here at Gateway we help you in a caring and compassionate way to move into the grief and process through it. It is in the transition times of life were we tend to get lost and have problems. This is because we are struggling to let go of the old normal and accept the new normal. Don't struggle needlessly alone. We at Gateway are here to help you.

Therapy for grief and loss provides a compassionate space to process your emotions, honor your experience, and find a path forward at your own pace. Whether you're coping with the death of a loved one, a major life change, or another significant loss, our practice offers support without judgment. You'll gain tools to navigate the pain, make meaning from your experience, and gradually reconnect with life. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting instead learning to carry your loss with care.
