long shot...but not sure where to post

I'm looking into counseling and I'm having a hard time finding something. I don't know if I'm not googling the right thing or not.

Re: long shot...but not sure where to post

  • I am not sure what area you are in but this is the counselor my sister uses for various reasons...Dr. Seth Patrick
    14343 Torrey Chase Boulevard SUITE East
    Houston, TX 77014
    Phone: 281-444-4620
     
     
  • Krist Samaritan Center - http://www.samaritanhouston.org/

    They have counselors operating at numerous locations (mostly churches) all over town.  They are "pastoral counselors", meaning they all have a faith-based background, but do not push faith/Christianity/any doctrine on you, if that is a concern. 

    They accept many kinds of insurance, but also have a large endowment and payment is on a sliding, need-based scale.

  • I don't have any recommendations.  I just wanted to say how sorry I am.  I haven't been through what you've been through, but having 2 angel babies (1 was a late loss), I have sort of an idea.  If you ever need anyone to talk to or just to vent, please let me know.  Here is my email address allysonjackson73 @ gmail.com.

  • My friend is still very active in M.E.N.D., she had a very late loss.  She said it was very beneficial.  The have support groups and recommendations for grief counselors.  They also have a FB page.

  • I suggest MEND as well.  A coworker lost their baby at 34 weeks.  I can ask who his wife saw if you would like.  I imagine it was someone through MEND.

     

  • I know someone that went to this place after a late loss and it really helped her:

    I went to my church for counseling but it's hard to find people who counsel and understand what you are going through when it comes to pregnancy/child loss.

  • My church always recommends this counselor:

    Steve Rossi

    713-395-1555

    srossi@thechristiancounselor.com

    I believe his office is on the west side of town, but he meets people at St. Timothy Lutheran Church near Willowbrook mall on specific days.
