Grief and Loss Counseling in Lake Worth, FL.

I work with clients who are grieving the loss of a loved one, the loss of a beloved pet, and the loss of a relationship because of a divorce or some other reason. I provide a compassionate, safe space for my clients to grieve and work through their process at their own pace. I show my clients genuine empathy which allows them to let the walls down and get to the root cause of their grief; thereby allowing them to accept the loss and find healthy coping mechanisms to work through the loss. I have provided grief counseling in both the private sitting as well as in residential treatment centers.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

With my experience in ministry, in counseling, and in life-coaching, I’ve helped men work through the complicated emotions around grief and loss. As men we feel pressure to be a “rock” for everyone else. Then our wives tell us to open up and feel our feelings. But do they really want to see us fall apart? Like many things, the truth is somewhere in the middle. Chances are that you’ve bravely put your feelings on hold to care for others, and regardless of what the world says, there’s love and nobility in that. And at the same time, you need a place to be real and work through the pain. If you’re ready to take the next step and face what needs to be faced, man to man, I’m here to help.
