Loss or Grief therapists in Wharton, Texas TX
Chuck Gray, Ph.D.
Psychologist
Rather than limit counseling to only one approach, I offer my clients what I think is best specifically for them from a wide array of expert approaches in my marriage and other counseling. In addition to leading seminars to train other professionals in marriage counseling, I have benefited by receiving extensive professional training from most of the leading marriage counseling experts in the country, including but not limited to John Gottman, Susan Johnson, John Gray, Harville Hendrix, Virginia Satyr, Ellyn Bader and Peter Pearson, Gary Brainard, Frank Pittman, Shirley Glass, Janice Abrahms Spring, and Neil Jacobson. In conducting counseling, I am fortunate to be able to choose from numerous resources including principles from Gottman's research, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Mars & Venus Counseling, Imago Therapy, Positive Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Systems Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Rogerian Therapy, Integrative Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Reality Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy, Gestalt Techniques, NLP, and EMDR. I also offer counseling tools that I personally developed here in Houston.

Elizabeth Starnes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, ATR, REAT
Loss and Grief can include many things besides the death of a loved one. It can be the loss of youth, becoming an empty nester, divorce, relationship ends, moving, a new job, a new role in life and many others. Change is difficult and uncertain, loss brings intense feelings that feel unmanageable. I have found that using Expressive Arts Therapy and talk therapy as helpful in processing those hard emotions. No one is forced to use expressive arts, it is offered. Grief takes time. We need a space to feel and express it. I can provide that safe, nonjudgmental space for you as your move through your grief and loss.

Experiencing loss early in my life has taught me a lot about loss and grief. Grief is unique for each and every person and it is important to meet the client where he/she is.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
There is really no way to fully prepare for death; less so when loss is sudden and unexpected. Many people feel a range of emotions - and those emotions may change over time or even moment by moment: shock, confusion, anger, denial, relief, emptiness, deep sadness, loneliness, isolation, fatigue, just to name a few. Sometimes loss is missing someone dear to us, and sometimes loss is more complicated. There is no correct way to grieve. But we can look at the ways in which our own minds can increase our suffering so that we can learn to be with grief and loss in a way that allows fully honoring our experiences, as well as taking steps forward in your life in a way that is in line with your chosen values. I offer a safe place where is OK to feel your feelings, however messy or confusing. I also will be on your journey to help you find rituals for honoring your loss that are special to you and your unique relationship with who you have lost.
