Grief and Loss Counseling in Polkton, NC.

When we are going through grief, we need someone to be present with us in our pain. We need someone who will sit with us in our experience and help us name what is happening, because it doesn't always make sense. The swirl of thoughts and emotions and how it is affecting us needs to be heard and allowed to be present. We don't always get that from family or friends, or we have responsibilities with them that makes it complicated. Here, you can just be you, with all the mess and heartache, and you will have unlimited tissues, coping skills, support, guidance, and discover meaning through the process.

Greif is not anyway natural or pathological. My approach to grief is to meet you where you are. Grief if a tough thing to deal with so we take our time and walk this journey together. I educate and sympathize with you while you are grieving in order to allow them to feel safe. I provide support understanding and listen when you need it the most.

Everyone experiences grief and loss at some point throughout their lives. Grief and loss can result from the loss of a loved one, major life changes or feelings of regret from our past. I help clients move through the grieving process by confronting painful feelings, sharing insight into their pain and facilitating growth as the client begins to heal from their hurt.

When you lose someone you love, the pain might be excruciating and it may seem there is no one that understands your feelings. In grief and loss therapy, we will explore the stages of grief that are universal, and how they apply to your grieving process. The goal of grief therapy is to help you process your feelings, learn coping skills to deal with your loss and, eventually, experience acceptance and hope.

Grief is hard. Each person experiences grief differently and grief is not a constant thing. Grief can look like shock, or anger or even extreme sadness and heaviness. It can sneak up on you when you least expect it and take you by surprise. It can ruin your Christmas or your birthday, but you don't have to let it ruin your life. By processing your grief you can find some relief. I would love to process your story with you.

My aim as a grief and loss therapist is to come alongside my clients with compassion and a listening ear. It is amazing to see how sharing ones story with a caring and attentive listener can lead to healing and growth. While many well intentioned friends may offer advise on how to move forward, my perspective is to help my clients grieve in a healthy way by offering a supportive environment where they are free to express what they are really thinking and feeling without judgement. While sharing their story of loss many also find hope and meaning in the midst of their grief.

Grief counseling helps people cope with grief and mourning following the loss of a loved one or due to major life changes that trigger feelings of grief (i.e. job loss or divorce). It provides a space for individuals to work through and process the complex emotions surrounding loss. Healthy grieving results in remembering the loss with a newfound sense of peace, rather than searing pain.
