Grief and Loss Counseling in Alvin, 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 don’t include the brain in your work with someone, you risk describing the water to them while they drown and calling it success.

I am trained as a Prolonged Grief Disorder Therapy (PGDT) provider by the Center for Complicated Grief at Columbia University. The structured protocol addresses "stuck grief" that is marked by an attachment fissure that causes rumination, excessive guilt, loss of former interests and hopelessness 6 months and longer (sometimes many years) after a significant loss. PGDT is evidence-based and has a over a 70 percent efficacy rate for movement into adaptive grief.

Change is hard, especially when it arrives in the form of a loved one’s passing, the end of a significant relationship, or estrangement from family or friends. It might also manifest as the loss of a job or home due to circumstances beyond your control or other unforeseen and abrupt transitions. Grieving can feel isolating, frustrating, and confusing as a host of emotions show up, relentless and unbidden. Most of us don’t naturally possess the tools to deal with the intensity of emotion, and so we get stuck, unable to break free from its grip, and uncertain about how to proceed. Grief counseling can help. I can be your companion and witness in grief as you walk this difficult journey.
