Hi, I'm Kyle

MS, LPC, NCC, CPCS

It is my belief and experience that you will get more out of your life if you are willing to change. Change is spurred by a feeling that something just isn't quite right, that something could be better, that there's an issue you want to resolve. Therapy is an important step in discovering the world around you and finding your place in it.

I was hesitant to start therapy. I did not see how someone else could understand my life, nevertheless help me navigate it. I wrong. Kyle is a coach, mentor and advocate all in one.

As counselors, we often find ourselves guiding others through the tumultuous terrain of grief, offering support and solace as they navigate the profound pain of loss. Yet, as practitioners, we too are intimately familiar with the complex emotions that accompany the experience of bereavement. Today, I invite you to journey with me as I share my personal story of coping with the devastating loss of my father and sister, and how I found the strength to survive deep grief. Losing a loved one is an indescribable pain, one that seeps into every crevice of your being, leaving you feeling shattered and adrift. I lost my father in 2004 from a heart attack when he was only 56 years old but the grief surrounding my sister’s untimely death threatened to consume me entirely. Amid overwhelming sorrow, I found myself grappling with a myriad of emotions—anger, confusion, sadness, and profound emptiness. In the initial stages of grief, I was consumed by a sense of disbelief and denial. It felt as though my world had been upended, leaving me suspended in a state of numbness and disbelief. How could I live in a world where half of my family was gone? As the reality of her absence began to sink in, I was engulfed by waves of intense sadness and despair. I mourned not only the loss of her physical presence but also the dreams, memories, and unspoken words that would forever remain unfulfilled. In the depths of my grief, I realized that I could not journey through this darkness alone. I sought solace in the embrace of friends, family, and colleagues who offered a beacon of light in this darkness. Their unwavering support reminded me that I was not alone, that my pain was valid, and that healing was possible, even during profound loss. I eventually began to find moments of comfort in the storm. I found solace in humor, work, and even justice, channeling my emotions into jokes, deeper empathetic connections in sessions, and the pursuit of justice for her tragic and senseless death. In the midst of grief, it's all too easy to succumb to feelings of guilt, self-blame, and inadequacy. But as I journeyed through the depths of my pain, I realized that true healing begins with extending compassion and grace to oneself. Today, as I reflect on my journey through grief, I am reminded of the resilience of the human spirit. While the pain of loss may never fully subside, it is possible to find moments of peace, joy, and even beauty amidst the wreckage. My father and sister may no longer walk beside me in the physical sense, but their presence lives on in the memories we shared and the love that continues to sustain me. To anyone who finds themselves navigating the treacherous waters of grief, be gentle with yourself, lean on your support network, and trust that healing is possible, even in the darkest of times. As counselors, friends, and fellow travelers, we stand beside you, offering our hands and our hearts as you find your way through the storm.

In our lives, we encounter a multitude of relationships—some enriching, some challenging, and some that defy conventional norms. Among these, the bonds we share with our biological relatives hold a unique significance. However, there are times when the decision to distance ourselves from these familial ties becomes necessary for our well-being and growth. I often witness individuals grappling with the complexities of family dynamics, struggling to reconcile the desire for connection with the need to protect their mental and emotional health. The decision to end relationships with biological relatives is one that is deeply personal and often fraught with conflicting emotions. Yet, it is a decision that can be empowering and transformative when approached with self-awareness and compassion. One of the key factors that may lead to the dissolution of familial bonds is toxicity. Toxic relationships, characterized by manipulation, abuse, or chronic negativity, can take a significant toll on our mental and emotional well-being. Despite the biological connection, maintaining such relationships can perpetuate a cycle of harm and hinder our personal growth and happiness. In these instances, setting boundaries and prioritizing self-care may necessitate stepping away from these toxic dynamics, even if it means severing ties with biological relatives. Another common reason for ending relationships with biological relatives is the lack of support or understanding. Not all family members are equipped to provide the love and acceptance we crave. In cases where familial relationships are marked by judgment, rejection, or invalidation of our experiences and identities, seeking solace and support from chosen family members or supportive individuals outside of our biological kinship circle can be crucial for our emotional well-being. It's important to acknowledge that the decision to end relationships with biological relatives is not a sign of failure or weakness. Rather, it reflects a profound commitment to self-preservation and growth. By recognizing and honoring our own needs and boundaries, we pave the way for healthier, more fulfilling relationships—both within and outside the realm of family ties. However, it's also important to approach this decision with mindfulness and compassion. Ending relationships with biological relatives can evoke a range of emotions, including guilt, grief, and sadness. It's essential to give ourselves permission to mourn the loss of what could have been while also embracing the potential for healing and growth that comes with prioritizing our well-being. As a counselor, my role is to provide a safe space for individuals to explore and process their feelings surrounding familial relationships.  Through compassionate listening, validation, and guidance, I empower my clients to navigate the complexities of family dynamics with clarity and resilience. The decision to end relationships with biological relatives is a deeply personal one that requires courage, self-awareness, and compassion. By embracing boundaries and prioritizing our well-being, we create space for healing, growth, and authentic connections in our lives. I stand alongside my clients on this journey, offering support and guidance every step of the way.
