Do I need grief counseling?

 

Grief counseling can help you when your self-healing process seems to have stalled. Typically, if your feelings are interfering with your work or life, it might be time to consider grief counseling.

​

Other signs you may want grief counseling include:

  • Intense sadness

  • Longing or yearning

  • Feelings of emptiness or meaninglessness

  • Difficulty engaging in happy memories

  • Avoiding any reminders of the departed

  • Preoccupation with the deceased

  • Preoccupation with the circumstances surrounding their death

  • Lack of desire in your personal interests

  • Bitterness or anger

How does grief counseling work?

​

​

I will help you understand what particular thoughts, events or actions activate your grief. A treatment plan might include traditional individual therapy, meditation, relaxation, reflection, memory sharing or group work.

When the loss involves a family member, it’s often helpful to engage in couples counseling or family counseling. Many people find peace when sharing their thoughts, memories and feelings in a safe, loving and guided setting.
