Grief and Loss Counseling in Mount Pleasant, TN.

Clients benefit from a compassionate relationship where they have a context to explore the impact of the inevitable losses that happen to each of us eventually. Grieving is difficult for everyone, but it does not have to be debilitating. In fact, losses and grieving can be gentle (though sometimes relentless) teachers to form our characters into more loving, peaceful and happy people who journey gracefully with our own souls and those with whom we relate.

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.

When we experience grief or the lost of a loved one, what we are feeling is the impact of the death of a relationship. Some of us are able to grieve for a limited period of time and then move on with our lives. For others, the grieving process may seem unending and something impossible to get past. I can help you process grief and loss in a safe, nurturing, healthy way. While we never forget those loved ones we have lost in death, we can absolutely always hold them in our hearts and remember them with love and fondness as opposed to with pain and despair.

You don't "get over" a profound loss. Whether it is a loss from death or divorce, a deep loss sets you on a path requiring understanding, healing, and growth. As a therapist and pastor I've counseled with hundreds of adults who have lost a loved one. As a minister to single & single again adults and as a therapist for 30 years I've counseled with many hundreds of separated and divorced adults. I am one of the featured experts in DivorceCare's (www.DivorceCare.org) support group resource materials which are used all over the world. A grief & loss therapist doesn't just tell you how to recover from your pain; instead he/she walks alongside you with compassion, gentleness, and insight.

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.
