Grieving after a loss is very personal. It can be messy and mysterious. It is a process. Some may say it is the cost one pays for love. You will be encouraged to tell the story of your loss and how it has affected your life, identify and express various feelings, and learn the various stages of grief. You will know that whatever you are experiencing is normal. Through the process, you will begin to recall happy moments and may develop[ and enact acts of repentance and implement acts of spiritual faith as a source of comfort and hope.

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.

Dealing with grief & loss is not easy. When we are grieving, it is often multi-faceted and non-linear, it can bring up many different emotions, some unexpected. Working with a therapist through grief & loss can help process the many emotions that may arise. I view the grieving process of each client as unique and support you by allowing space and guiding you to process whatever is coming up in a way that feels comfortable and towards healing.

Everyone experiences grief at some point in their lives. I use client-centered therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to support clients as they navigate the complex emotions that accompany grief. My approach helps clients ride the waves of their emotions, guiding them through the process and ensuring they reach a place of safety and healing.

When a person is in deep sorrow from grief and loss, the person is feeling a terrible sense of aggravated state of losing someone or something special. It is like a massive amount of money loss feeling and tons of heavy weight is dropping inside someone's heart. I suggest to my clients what they have been missing out and think about the opposite and consider people around the client. So I guide them to think about their emotional path from deprived, incorrectly positioned and misplaced ways, to privileged and correctly positioned ways and laying your emotions out properly. Some of the most effective suggestions are; you allow it to pass it, and share it with people around you. Matt 11:28-30

Are you having a hard time coping with loss of loved one or with a major life change such divorce or loss of job? Both can leave deep feelings of sadness and eventually this sadness can leave the person with feelings of resentment and anger. Each person varies how they adapt to the significant loss.

My hope is that as clients work through the reality of the loss they have experienced, they will recover their clarity and inner direction, and will begin to create ways to move forward. Clients are encouraged to acknowledge the loss and to explore the gamut of emotions accompanying this loss. Clients are encouraged to express their gratitude for what was, and at their own pace, begin to move forward.

Grief and loss can present itself in many different ways and show up in our lives in many different forms. Surviving a loss can be life-shattering, especially if we feel like we are experiencing it alone. My experience with grief is that it comes in waves and is not a linear process. There is no clear process or timeline that we should hold ourselves to when recovering from a loss. Each person's experience is unique and carries its own complexities with it. Together we can discuss what is weighing heavily on you and find a path forward towards healing.

Losing a friend or family member can be devastating no matter the circumstances. We can also experience pain from losing a pet, a job or the ending of a relationship. Regardless of what kind of grief or loss you are struggling with, I will support you in facing your pain and finding a way forward. I will help you to understand the process and stages of grief and make sense of it. When we come to make meaning out of our loss our pain is lessened. I will also help you find peace and acceptance.
