Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver approaches grief as a uniquely personal and non-linear process, understanding that each journey through loss is as individual as the person experiencing it. She guides her clients through grief’s complex stages—including shock, denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance, and hope. Dr. Cynthia validates that people don’t always move through these stages in a set order or even experience them all. Whether the loss is due to the passing of a loved one, the end of a marriage, children moving out of the home, or the heartache of losing a beloved pet, Dr. Cynthia recognizes that grief can reappear and shift in intensity over time. The intensity of complex grief can lead to depression and complex grief should be addressed with a qualified mental health professional.
Dr. Cynthia also understands that grief can lead to physical and emotional burnout. Unprocessed or ongoing grief can be especially draining, leading to exhaustion, decreased motivation, and even physical symptoms like fatigue and anxiety. Dr. Cynthia helps her clients process these emotions, providing support for high-functioning women who often feel pressured to "keep it together" despite their own pain. Her approach integrates empathy and evidence-based methods to support clients in navigating their grief, regaining strength, and eventually finding meaning through their loss. Whether working on acceptance, healing, or creating new routines, Dr. Cynthia is committed to walking alongside her clients with compassion and expertise.

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.

Dr. Jessica Shine
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LPC
Every grieving experience is different. A person may be able to continue their day-to-day routine after one loss, yet not be able to get out of bed after the loss of someone else. Whatever your personal symptoms are, grief and bereavement counseling have been proven to help.
