Grief and Loss Counseling in Farmersville, TX.

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 dont include the brain in your work with someone, you risk describing the water to them while they drown and calling it success.

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. .

As a Pastor and counselor, I understand the pain and struggles that come with grief and loss. It is a natural part of life, but it's not always easy to deal with. I believe that there are healthy and productive ways to process and alleviate the symptoms of grief and loss. Through biblical guidance and support, you can navigate this journey toward healing. You are not alone. I am willing to come alongside you and help you find comfort and hope in the difficult moments of your life.

Grief is a natural response to a significant loss. I provide grief counseling to enable people to express the range of emotions that occur (it is normal to feel anger at the deceased) and to help you make the decisions that are best for you and your family. While well-meaning friends offer condolences, society tends to assume that people "get over it" much faster than what is normal. There is no set amount of tears or time that leads to acceptance.

Grief affects everybody differently. Learning to "let go" needs to be an intentional process that I can help you through. There are stages that each person goes through, on their own timeline. Counseling can help you learn where you are and give you support as you move through the grieving process. Grief support can be given for the loss of a relationship, opportunity, loved one, job, or even a change in your daily life.

I am trained as a Prolonged Grief Disorder Therapy (PGDT) provider by the Center for Complicated Grief at Columbia University. The structured protocol addresses "stuck grief" that is marked by an attachment fissure that causes rumination, excessive guilt, loss of former interests and hopelessness 6 months and longer (sometimes many years) after a significant loss. PGDT is evidence-based and has a over a 70 percent efficacy rate for movement into adaptive grief.

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.
