Grief and Loss Counseling in Little Elm, 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.

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.

We will all experience loss at some point in life. Maybe you're struggling through the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, the loss of a job or some other painful experience. You don't have to face it alone. For more than 25 years I've supported individuals and families as they've journeyed through some of the most difficult times in their lives. Whatever your loss, I'll walk with you through the grief process to help you heal and reclaim a sense of peace and hope for the future.

Grief comes in all shapes and sizes. We can help you successfully grieve your loss by completing your relationship to the pain, isolation and loneliness created by the traumatic loss. Creating a loss history can help us identify where current losses may triggering old unresolved loss. We can help you learn to cope and process your loss so that you can move forward in your life.

Experiencing a loss, whether it is sudden or anticipated, can unleash a whirlwind of emotions that leave you feeling isolated and disconnected from the people and activities that once brought you happiness. During a tumultuous period when your world feels turned upside down, having someone by your side who understands and cares can be an invaluable asset in navigating the journey ahead. Together, we can discover a sense of healing and rediscovery, helping you reconnect with yourself and others. And amidst the process of processing difficult emotions, there lies the potential for unexpected moments of joy to emerge- little sparks that remind us of some of the good in life.

Grief and loss is, unfortunately, a normal part of living. There is no single "correct" way to grieve: different cultures and even individuals from the same culture grieve differently. The only consistent feature is that grief takes time. The most effective thing anyone can do for someone grieving is to be there—to listen, to empathize, to walk along with the grief. There is no "fixing" grief. But counseling can help prevent normal grief from developing into major depression or other mental health conditions.

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.

Grief and loss is experienced differently by everyone. In counseling we are here to help you better understand where you are in the process of coping with your loss, accept how you think and feel about the loss, and aid you to gently move through the process at a pace that is healthy for you. Here at Reflections Counseling of Denton we offer a variety of therapies for adults, adolescents, and children that aid in this process.

The pain of grief always passes with expression, not avoidance. Counseling grants you permission to grieve. Grieving in the presence of another person is more restorative that grieving alone, but often times friends or family may unknowingly inhibit your grief. Counseling removes all expectations and pressures, allowing your grief to come on its own. Grief counseling makes room for emotions you may not expect, know how to explain, or may feel guilty about. Your expression of grief will ease your pain and make life seem livable again.

All people experience loss at one point or another, and it is important to allow oneself to feel the full spectrum of emotions that present during times of loss and grief. People are unique in expressing grief and loss and sometimes may need professional assistance to process these feelings. Through therapy a person can learn to give self permission to feel and express emotions related to loss, thus assisting them to move toward healing and continued health.

My experience working at Children's Hospital of Dallas and Methodist Hospital has helped me to understand that the stages of grief are not linear, but circular. You can be very sad one day and angry the next. Sometimes, all of the stages in the same day. Learn to work through each of these stages as they occur (and reoccur) to move to a place of greater peace. Many look for relief from the feelings- learn healthier ways to engage the process without relying on unhealthy fixes or coping mechanisms.

I know exactly how it feels to lose a love one, an important job, or even a dream. Loss is one of the most painful human experiences out there but you don't have to hurt forever. Sharing your pain in a safe setting with someone who genuinely care about you is very healing. Over time you can overcome the pain in your life. The trick to share your story with others who care.
