Grief and Loss Counseling in Teaneck, NJ.

Loss can come in so many different forms, yet the pain is there and is strong. When we hold someone or something dear to our heart and then they suddenly gone, we are often left with a hole in our heart and need to grieve that loss. Grief looks different for each person. There are 5 main stages of grief that most people will go through in an order: Denial and Isolation, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. These are hard stages to walk through alone. Reach out and call one of our compassionate therapists at Mars and Venus Counseling Center who can help you to talk through each of the emotions that you experience at each stage.

Grief can play a role in our lives due to many different circumstances. We often think of grief and loss related to the death of a loved one or someone special to us. It's important to consider that losing a job, being diagnosed with an illness or having a friend move away can also feel like a loss that often has a detrimental impact on us that requires therapeutic intervention. My office is a safe space that can hold those dark deep feelings and help you identify the coping skills necessary to resurface stronger than before.

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.
