Grief Counseling
Losing a loved one can be a shattering and completely disorienting experience! It may seem like the world is going on without you as you are left wondering how to live without your loved one. Even though grief can be completely overwhelming, it is also a very natural process and a compassionate guide can help you find your path forward. We have helped guide many people navigate their way through grief after losing a loved one. Each journey is unique, but together we can move toward healing and restoration.
It has been our observation that many people would prefer to forget or downplay their grief. The idea of working through the feelings, experiences and memories related to their grief is simply too painful to bear, so many people suppress their grief or reach for their favorite way to numb out (substances, electronics, work, etc.). Unfortunately, when we avoid these deeply rooted emotional experiences, they do not go away. Sometimes they creep in and affect our relationships, sometimes they cause us to over/under function in our lives, and often they become physical symptoms. It is best to acknowledge the emotional journey your grief will require, set aside some time and emotional energy for the journey, and find someone to journey with you so you are not alone.
Together, we will take a look at your relationship with your loved one, honor the significant role they have had in your life and work to heal any unresolved issues in that relationship. We will take a look at the difficult emotions involved in your grief journey and metabolize them together. We will begin to visualize your future without your loved one and work to adjust any expectations or roles that will need to change. As your guide, we will make sure that you do not get stuck and that you do not get completely overwhelmed. Looking your grief straight on is a very courageous act, and we will help you navigate your unique path forward.
Too many people allow their grief to fall by the wayside without directly embracing it. This can be a devastating decision that may affect your life in many ways and for many years. If you know that the loss of your loved one is impacting your life and relationships, please call today so that we can begin walking down the path of healing.
