I provide grief and loss therapy in Gilbert, AZ. I understand how hard, confusing, and overwhelming it can be to experience a loss of any type. Losing someone or something that is close to you is devastating and often very traumatic. My approach to grief and loss therapy is to assist you in processing through the pain and emotions you are experiencing as a result of this loss, including grief, sadness, and despair. It is also my goal to help you work through these emotions in order to assist you in moving forward when the time is right and finding a way to navigate through life with a new outlook.

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.

Available for Online Therapy

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.

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.

Gilbert, Arizona 85296 | 480-590-3915

My approach to grief and loss therapy is rooted in empathy, validation, and creating a safe space for clients to process their emotions. I utilize an integrative approach, combining elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and narrative therapy to help clients navigate their grief journey. By acknowledging the unique nature of each person's loss, I tailor my methods to meet individual needs, encouraging clients to express their feelings and memories in a supportive environment. This therapeutic process allows clients to find meaning in their loss, develop healthy coping strategies, and gradually move towards acceptance and healing.

Online Counselor and Coach for Men

Available for Online Therapy

With my experience in ministry, in counseling, and in life-coaching, I’ve helped men work through the complicated emotions around grief and loss. As men we feel pressure to be a “rock” for everyone else. Then our wives tell us to open up and feel our feelings. But do they really want to see us fall apart? Like many things, the truth is somewhere in the middle. Chances are that you’ve bravely put your feelings on hold to care for others, and regardless of what the world says, there’s love and nobility in that. And at the same time, you need a place to be real and work through the pain. If you’re ready to take the next step and face what needs to be faced, man to man, I’m here to help.
