Grief and Loss Counseling in Keystone Heights, FL.

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 dont include the brain in your work with someone, you risk describing the water to them while they drown and calling it success.

A lot of people run from grief work - I don't. I understand the pain of loss and I will help you through the darkness. Grief is a very profound and personal experience. The pain of loss never goes away completely - that person will always be an important part of your life and experience. I am happy to help you walk through that pain so that you are not alone in your grief.

I emphasize the need to increase the reality of loss, to help the client deal with and overcome various barriers to changes created by the loss, and help the client feel comfortable engaging in any new relationships. I help to identify and resolve conflicts of the loss which may prevent the healthy processing of grief stages. Grief and loss is part of life for everyone, healthy grief is necessary to overall well being.

I watched my son walk to the bus stop on his first day of high school and thought "This is the beginning of the end". When he left for college four years later, I cried for three days. A new season in our relationship was beginning. And that also meant one was ending. Such losses and their ensuing grief, are on a continuum with death at one end and relationships changing on the other. Cor Counseling is a safe place to to grieve, to cry, to express anger or fear and, in your own time, to find a new normal.

Obviously, everyone deals with grief and loss in a different manner. The greatest gift we can give anyone going through the grieving process, is to offer them a safe atmosphere, nonjudgmental, in which they are able to tell their story. This process can involve talking, journaling, therapeutic letter writing, and an encouragement to openly express all feelings, no matter how difficult they may be.

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.

Unfortunately, almost no one is immune from experiencing grief and loss at some point in their life. My approach to grief includes exploration of underlying emotions and core attachment injuries using Emotionally Focused Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). During the process, we will explore underlying emotional injuries to allow for healing.

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.

Grief and loss are the intensely personal emotions that occur after losing a loved one. Grief can also occur after the loss of a pregnancy, a divorce, a terminal diagnosis, the loss of a beloved pet, and changes in your health or the health of a loved one. Even the simplest tasks can trigger feelings of grief after experiencing a loss making everyday life feel impossible. Through empathy and the safe environment you'll receive in therapy, you can feel supported as you move through all of the emotions that grief brings with it. You can move towards acceptance and discover what your life looks like after loss.

We all experience grief and loss. Whether it is the loss of a career, a loved one, or sense of self you do not have to do it alone. I understand what you are going through because I specialize in grief and complicated grief. I know how grief can make your world stop, how it forces you to contemplate your own existence, and the growth it can bring if you allow it. You may be in the depths of sorrow or you may be unable to feel sad. Neither way is "wrong." While it is a personalized journey it also has unstructured stages that research has show we must all face in the process. With me you will have a tender space to heal and grow.
