Grief and Loss Counseling in Liberty Hill, TX.

The best way I can describe the grief experience is that everything feels surreal and our brain feels like it's under water. Sometimes we can't make a complete thought. Often we feel disconnected from others. Other times our pain is so intense we feel that if it doesn't ease up, we might die from it. Our "normal" is disrupted and between the time we pass from our old normal to a new normal we travel through intense emotions. We can experience grief because someone we loved died. But we also experience grief from other losses, such a divorce, lost jobs, news of sickness or chronic illness, friendships, moving to new cities. Simply put, change, even small ones can create a grief response.

In Grief & Loss Therapy, I'll give you a safe and accepting place to work with the complex emotions that come with loss. Together, we'll work on creating coping mechanisms for handling your loss, avoiding problems, and recognizing the legitimacy of your feelings. Our sessions will also emphasize on your communication abilities so that you may better explain your needs and feelings to others who are supporting you. Also, I want to help you regain meaning and purpose in your life after experiencing loss by providing you with new views and insights. I believe that by going through this, we can find a way to assist you to get past your grief and accept the possibility of a fulfilling future.

I will hold space, provide resources, and support clients through this difficult process. I believe there is no time limit on how long it takes someone to move through the grief and loss process. I will support and meet my clients where they are and help guide them towards healing in the process. Encouragement to re-engage with life will provided but not in a forceful and or dismissive manner.

The grief process is often difficult and confusing. There are 80,000 books, blogs, and techniques out there to help you grieve "correctly." Sometimes, the "correct" way only leads to frustration and increased grief when it doesn't work for you. I believe each person needs to learn how to grieve in their own way. I work with you to help you understand what your process will be and how it can be most effective for you.

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.

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.

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.

Having been through grief and loss in life, I feel somewhat equipped to help others make sense of their own transition. I have worked with clients who have lost children and other loved ones. Just Mind, our company, works with the Flatwater Foundation which provides no cost to the client counseling for those affected by cancer. To qualify, one must contact Flatwater directly, Wonders and Worries, or Texas Oncology. Working in this area is personally rewarding to me since my father had cancer (he's better now) but it made me understand some of the different journey's people can take with cancer. Our therapists have over 20 years of experience in this area.

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.

My approach is rooted in empathy, compassion, and a deep understanding of the intricate emotional processes individuals go through when facing loss. Through tailored therapeutic techniques, clients will benefit by gaining insights into their grief, developing coping strategies, and finding ways to honor their loved ones while navigating the journey toward healing and resilience. Together, we will work towards finding a path forward, allowing you to gradually rebuild your life and discover a sense of hope and purpose amidst grief.

When we get stuck in grief, it is as if we are trapped in amber. We cannot move forward with our lives. By learning to release deep, painful emotions, we find ways to return to life and renew important relationships with ourselves, our families and within our communities. Discover a safe, healing space to release strong feelings. Learn to express emotions without being overwhelmed. I am a compassionate witness and together we can create the opportunity for healing that you are seeking.
