Grief and Loss Counseling in LaBelle, FL.

GRIEF & BEREAVEMENT COUNSELING Bereavement and grief aren’t light-hearted topics.

Both encompass a wide range of emotions such as fear, anger and deep, deep sadness. I can help with Grief and Loss through counseling & EMDR

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.

We will all experience grief and loss. This is what it means to experience life and love. Grief is a normal, healthy response to a loss. Grief can be experienced as a mental, physical, emotional, or social reaction. We all grieve differently and the way we process grief depends on our unique relationship with the person we lost, the situation surrounding the loss, our cultural and spiritual beliefs, and our previous experiences with loss.There’s no one right way to grieve. Mourning is the process of adapting to our loss. Bereavement is often used to refer to the period of grief and mourning, as we try to re organize our lives without our loved one. Suffering and loss can feel overwhelming,

When grief and loss occur unexpectedly, or even after an illness, it can have a profound, even shattering impact on daily life. And, although grief is not an illness, getting through the process of grief may require support.

Grief and loss is a personal journey we do not all arrive at the same time, take the same route, or have a set amount of time to grieve. We are ritual by nature; writing a poem, planting a tree, or even watching a movie can be a memorial. Death is final but hope says we will see the people we have loved and lost again. I truly believe we are separated by time and a thin veil. The therapy technique, ' the empty chair', may be utilized for closure.

Grief is hard. Grief is natural. Animals grieve. Grief is something we feel deep in our bodies and can be disorienting and destabilizing. Grief brings up questions about who we are, the world, the existence or goodness of God, and purpose and futility of life. Dealing with grief, especially when the loss is traumatic and unexpected, requires a slow and tender space to allow the grief to move through our body and to settle in our hearts with warmth and memory. I am here to help you grieve the loss of your loved one, experience, health , future or even your beloved pet. .

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.
