Grief and Loss Counseling in Chapel Hill, NC.

Grieving can be experienced in the death of someone you loved, or in a number of other areas including job transitions, moving, separation or break ups, having children, children leaving the home, or other ways as well. Major changes or transitions can be very difficult to cope with. I help people adjust to the different grieving stages, better understand them, and learn ways to heal from loss. Using the Kubler-Ross model as well as utilizing a person's supports and strengths, I will guide you through this journey to a place of acceptance and peace.

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.

Working through grief and loss can be confusing and feel isolating. With my approach, I can walk alongside you through the different stages of grief, help you identify the unique ways you are currently grieving now and will need to grieve in the future, and bring you back to a place of resolution regarding your loss. I'm available for free 20-minute phone consultations or by email to further discuss your needs, answer any questions you might have, and outline what the therapy process can look like for you.

My clients benefit from grief and loss therapy from me due to my extensive personal experience with multiple, serial deaths I've experienced, which affords me unique insight and compassion toward others who are experiencing loss. Together with my extensive clinical training and 16 years experience have effectively helped my clients cope with their losses.

Grief is such a natural part of life, even everyday life from small disappointments to major crushing losses. It comes with so many feelings such as sadness, anger, numbness, and confusion. Many times it's possible to simply work through it all on your own and let the feelings naturally dissipate. But sometimes it's just WAY too much. Feeling overwhelmed and unable to cope on your own is a sign you should consider giving yourself the gift of support and guidance from a professional. I have needed this myself. There's no shame in needing help.
