Grief and Loss Counseling in Kaufman, TX.

Grief affects everybody differently. Learning to "let go" needs to be an intentional process that I can help you through. There are stages that each person goes through, on their own timeline. Counseling can help you learn where you are and give you support as you move through the grieving process. Grief support can be given for the loss of a relationship, opportunity, loved one, job, or even a change in your daily life.

My approach is rooted in empathy, compassion, and a deep understanding of the intricate emotional processes individuals go through when facing loss.

Together, we will work towards finding a path forward, allowing you to gradually rebuild your life and discover a sense of hope and purpose amidst grief.

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.

Grief is a natural response to a significant loss. I provide grief counseling to enable people to express the range of emotions that occur (it is normal to feel anger at the deceased) and to help you make the decisions that are best for you and your family. While well-meaning friends offer condolences, society tends to assume that people "get over it" much faster than what is normal. There is no set amount of tears or time that leads to acceptance.

Grief is hard. Grief is natural. Animals grieve. Grief is something we feel deep in our bodies and can be disorienting and destabilizing. Grief brings up questions about who we are, the world, the existence or goodness of God, and purpose and futility of life.

I am here to help you grieve the loss of your loved one, experience, health , future or even your beloved pet. .
