Grief & Loss

“The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not “get over” the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to.”              – Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Grief comes with the territory of being human. Whether it stems from the  death of a loved one, the loss of a career or health, the end of a relationship, estrangement of a friend or family member, etc... Grief comes in all shapes and sizes and can be a precarious journey indeed.

Grief can come with a range of emotions, including shock, anger, sadness, and denial.  It can also come with a host of physical symptoms like headaches, nausea, and weight fluctuations.

Working with a grief counselor or therapist can help you navigate and process the complexities and express your emotions in a healthy way.  

A mental health therapist will focus on listening to your grief story and supporting you in whatever comes next – because only you may decide that.

“Grief is like the ocean. The waves ebb and flow. Sometimes the water is calm. Other times it's turbulent. In order to survive, I had to learn to swim. In moments when I struggled with massive waves of grief, I rode it out.”― Dana Arcuri, Sacred Wandering: Growing Your Faith In The Dark
