This is among the many tools in my tool box including: art, traditional talk therapy, somatic work, IFS, grief , and deep integrative work.
Imagine your maximum life potential. Imagine the life you want to live. Child, teen, adult. Every age group experiences pain and challenges in their life. This often leads to depression, anxiety, uncertainty. We live in a life that is hurried and creates feelings of being unstable. Chronic stress from life's variables and transitions, trauma, these elements disrupt our Autonomic Nervous System. In using this viewpoint, calming the body and the ANS, trauma can become more resolved. Depression decreased. Anxiety decreased. Feeling calm within to tackle the challenges of life, school, friendships, relationships, and work.

I work with a broad range of mental health issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, anger, grief and loss .
I know from my own experience how difficult it is to take the first step toward getting help. Once you've done that, you must face the difficult task of choosing a therapist. This is a very important and personal decision since the success of treatment is dependent on the client/therapist relationship. I believe the therapist/client relationship should be a collaborative one where we work as a team toward your goals.

I have two assumptions about you that I want to share. First, you are human. Second, being human means you need to feel understood, accepted, supported, and secure. In working with couples for over twenty years I have learned a lot about what helps them to connect again in ways that matter. Along with couples, I also regularly see individual clients with a specialty in treating anxiety, depression, grief , and trauma.

My wife and I have experienced the loss of 4 children in utero and have also gained 3 children through the experience of foster care and adoption; Having been a Christian pastor for 25 years, I enjoy thinking through spiritual matters with people.
It's hard for most people to ask for help. I get that. But I am of the belief that there are two categories of people: those who could be helped by therapy and those who actually go out and try it. So, if you are stepping out, asking for help, and giving therapy a try - good for you for taking a risk. My goal right off the bat is to build trust with my clients. Regardless of the issue at hand, I believe the most important and powerful tool is to have a trusted relationship in your corner.

Grief Therapists

How long does therapy take for grief?

There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.

When should you seek therapy for grief?

Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.

Can grief be managed without therapy?

Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.

What happens if grief is left untreated?

Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
