Grief & Bereavement Counseling

Grief and bereavement are profound and deeply transformative experiences. Bereavement reflects the journey of healing after the loss of a loved one, while grief encompasses the rich tapestry of emotions that arise in response to any kind of loss—fear, anger, and profound sadness, among them.

The path of adapting to loss is uniquely personal, shaped by your background, beliefs, and the nature of your relationship with the one who has transitioned, as well as other influences.

Common expressions of grief can manifest in physical, emotional, and social ways, each revealing the depth of your experience and the journey toward healing.

A few common symptoms in these categories are:

Physical

  • Crying and sighing
  • Headaches
  • Loss of appetite
  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Weakness
  • Fatigue

Emotional

  • Feelings of sadness and yearning
  • Feelings of worry or anger
  • Feelings of frustration or guilt

Social

  • Feeling detached from others
  • Self-isolation from social contact
  • Behaving in ways that are not normal for you

Every experience of grief is a unique expression of the heart. One person may find the strength to carry on with their daily routine after a loss, while another may feel unable to rise from bed. No matter what your personal experience looks like, know that grief and bereavement counseling has been shown to provide profound support and healing.
