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.

I will hold space, provide resources, and support clients through this difficult process. I believe there is no time limit on how long it takes someone to move through the grief and loss process. I will support and meet my clients where they are and help guide them towards healing in the process. Encouragement to re-engage with life will provided but not in a forceful and or dismissive manner.

Many who grieve find processing their loss in traditional talk therapy to be difficult, even impossible. We have found that neurofeedback can help in the early stages of grief, loss, and trauma to facilitate healing that can eventually lead to more traditional talk therapy or spiritual direction. Neurofeedback gives the brain more flexible options and frees resources to be able to process things that may have been too painful or difficult to talk about.

Loss is an inevitable part of our life and one of the most stressful events that can cause a major emotional crisis. We experience many different kinds of loss and the feelings are very personal and only you know what is significant to you. Losses can include; death of a loved one, loss of a relationship, loss of health due to illness, death of a pet, moving, change of job, loss of mental or physical ability, loss of financial security, retirement, and significant life transitions . If you experience persistent sadness, loneliness, emptiness, intrusive thoughts of hoplessness or anger please seek help. I work with my clients to successfully implement healthy coping skills in resolving grief.
