Grief Therapists in Blair, NE

Our deepest longings are to be seen, known, cherished, and touched. But often we live alone and thirsty in the wilderness. Relationships with families, friends, co-workers, and/or church community may be filled with trauma, anxiety, betrayal, pain, or ongoing stress. We may be in a state of brokenness, completely shut down, trapped by anger and grief or stuck in a meaningless rut. Strategies that had once managed life may be working against the relief we desire. Efforts to protect ourselves keep relationships shallow and distant. As a result, there is a deep thirst in our soul that nothing seems to satisfy.

We all have a unique story. One that has highs and lows, things that bring us joy, and things that have caused challenges, grief , and heartache. A desire for a life of abundance is written on our hearts. But sometimes our stories include hurdles and barriers that get in the way and keep us from the peace we long for. We often try numerous remedies or try to overcome these barriers on our own. But we aren’t meant to walk that road alone. It is my job as a therapist to create a space of safety, trust, and respect, so that you can explore, unpack, and make meaning of your experiences, and create the change that you want for your life.
