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.

Loss of a relationship, job, an ability, a loved one, or even peace of mind due to a trauma are all examples of grief. When someone loses something or someone important to them, they often have feelings of sadness and difficulty functioning in life. If you are having difficulty interacting with friends and family or having difficulty finding the energy to get out of bed to face the day, talking with me about these feelings can help you to regain control of your life.

Painful feelings of sadness, anger, guilt, helplessness and outrage are not uncommon when a person is grieving. These feelings are a natural healing process that draws on the resilience of the individual and family. It is beneficial to receive therapy when the experience affects the person’s daily functions at home, work and socially. The goal is to assist the client in identifying specific emotions, then find healthy coping strategies that will help the client move through the grief process effectively and resume normal functioning.
