Individual Therapy
Whether you are grieving the loss of a friend, family member, divorce, miscarriage, or any other loss, Noyau counselors will walk with you through each step of the healing process.
Couples Counseling
Couples can experience a number of losses together including loss of a child, miscarriage, family, and friends. In addition, loss may also include careers, home, financial stability, etc., and all of this requires a grieving process. Taking this journey together with a licensed professional counselor can be incredibly beneficial when navigating such a difficult time.
Family Counseling
Families go through grief and loss, and supporting each other during these times can be nuanced and complicated. Working through your own grief while giving space to the other members of your family to walk through grief in their own way is challenging, so we can help you navigate this complex process together.
Child/Play TherapyChildren experience grief from death of a loved one or pet, divorce, moving, and many other situations. Their experience is unique and often requires play therapy to really assess how they might be feeling and dealing with the loss. Play therapists and counselors trained in child therapy are essential to helping children cope and deal with grief.
Often, people feel guilty about what they are feeling or how long their grief process is taking.
We understand that everyone’s process is unique, and grief does not have a timeline. We also understand that sometimes grief may not be felt for months or years. Often people feel the need to repress emotions in order to keep moving forward or to help those around them. The outcome of this may be an inability to be vulnerable in relationships, lack of commitment, depression, anxiety, and so forth. Noyau therapists will help you heal from the initial loss or losses so that you can start to enjoy life again.
Often, people struggle with the meaning of the loss, life, and other fundamental values when this is experienced.
We are here to work with you towards finding that meaning and understanding so that you may begin to reconcile your loss and begin to experience growth in an altered environment.
We want to help you remember respectfully while assisting you in rebuilding and renewing hope for your future.
FAQs about grief and loss counseling in Dallas
-
Traditional in person counseling with professional help for grief support has been proven to be the most effective therapy for those walking through grief. A safe place to process emotions with an LPC or LMFT can provide the essential roadmap for adults, teens, and children. The right therapist will develop a treatment plan with you and your unique situation and the grief and loss you are experiencing. Your counselor will pull from a number of therapeutic modalities to see what will work best for you including (but not limited to): CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, traumatic grief therapy, EMDR, complicated grief therapy, and interpersonal therapy). The loss of a loved one or piece of your life can be scary and isolating, but therapy can help ease the pain and provide the hope that feels unreachable. .

While most therapists have some level of training on how to work with grief and loss, a grief counselor has a level of expertise based on significant training and experience. Grief counselors have taken countless hours of continuous education courses on grief and have worked with numerous clients going through the grieving process. At Noyau, we know everyone experiences some level of grief in life, so we make sure our clinicians are well versed and trained accordingly. We also choose clinicians with the highest level of empathy that can provide unconditional acceptance and understanding to those who may be struggling and feeling lost.

Bereavement counseling can be scary and intimidating, but it is so worth it. People often feel that counseling could not possibly ease the pain of significant loss, but leaning into the process can. Your pain is real, but a great therapist can help ease that pain and maybe shorten the time that the depth of that pain feels so intense. There is hope, and your counselor can help you see to the other side. Counseling allows you to feel whatever emotion you may be experiencing, from intense sadness to sever anger, in a nonjudgmental environment without expectations of an end date. Your counselor will never make you feel like you should be "over it by now" or that your feeling are unacceptable no matter what you bring to the table. We are here to walk alongside you as you process and figure out your new normal.
