Grief and Loss Therapy
Grief Doesn’t Follow a Schedule.
Grief doesn't follow a schedule, and it doesn't look the same for anyone. Sadness, guilt, anger, numbness and fear of the future can all show up, sometimes in the same hour.
At Journeys Therapy Center, we offer grief counseling in Bartonville, Texas, and by telehealth across Texas.
You don't have to carry this alone.
Who Grief and Loss Therapy Helps
Grief isn't only about death, and you don't need to be "struggling enough" to deserve support. People come to us after:
The death of a spouse, parent, child, sibling, friend or pet
A long illness, or the slow losses of caring for a loved one with dementia, Alzheimer's or a chronic condition
Divorce, estrangement or the end of an important relationship
Infertility or pregnancy loss
A major life change, such as a move, retirement, a lost career or a lost sense of faith or identity
If grief is affecting your sleep, your relationships or your work, or if you simply feel stuck, counseling can help. We work with teens, adults and families, and our play therapy services support younger children.
Our Approach: Your Story, Not a Script
Difficult roads lead to beautiful destinations, but you shouldn't have to walk them by yourself. We don't believe grief has stages to complete or a deadline to meet. Our work starts with understanding your story: who or what you lost, what that relationship meant, and what this season of life is asking of you.
From there, we help you:
Make room for painful emotions without being overwhelmed by them
Understand patterns that may be keeping you stuck
Manage guilt, anger and "what if" thinking
Find ways to honor your loved one while rebuilding daily life
Strengthen the relationships and routines that support you
Sessions are honest, warm and judgment-free. The goal isn't to "get over" your loss. It's to carry it in a way that lets you live again
We meet you where you are, at your pace, without judgment.
What to Expect From Grief and Loss Therapy
Reach out. Call or message us for a free consultation. We'll listen to what brings you in and match you with a therapist.
Your first sessions. You'll talk about your loss, what you're experiencing and what you'd like to change. There's no pressure to share more than you're ready to.
Ongoing support. Individual sessions run about 50 minutes, in person at our Bartonville office or by secure telehealth. Family and group options may also be available. Most people set a pace with their therapist and adjust as they go.
Frequently Asked Questions About Grief and Loss Therapy
How long does grief last?
There's no standard timeline. Grief often softens over time but can resurface around anniversaries, holidays and milestones. Therapy helps you meet those moments with more support and less fear.
Is what I'm feeling normal?
Very likely. Grief is a part of the human experience. Grief can bring crying, anger, exhaustion, guilt, difficulty concentrating and even relief. Severe, long-lasting bereavement may be complicated grief. Whether your grief is normal or complicated, speaking to a therapist can help you process your experiene and find relief.
Do I need to have lost someone to see a grief counselor?
No. Losses like a diagnosis, a caregiving role, a relationship ending or a major life transition are real losses, and they deserve support.
Do you accept insurance, and do you offer telehealth?
Some of our clinicians are in network with plans including Aetna, Baylor Scott & White, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna. Curative, Evernorth, Medicare and UnitedHealthcare. Our office will verify your benefits and give you an estimated cost. Telehealth sessions are available when both you and your therapist are in Texas.
You don’t have to have the right words. Reach out when you’re ready, and we’ll take it from there.
