The loss of a loved one is paralyzing. The world as you know it is no longer the same and now you are expected to adjust, but, you’re left mourning while the rest of the world “moves on” with their days. And all the while, one of the biggest challenges is there is no timeline or protocol for grief.
Grief feels different for everyone, it’s as unique as you are.
WHEN MOVING FORWARD SEEMS UNTHINKABLE.
Our empathetic & expertly trained counselors can help.
Returning to pre-loss functioning feels daunting or impossible. Sometimes an existential crisis, loss of identity and life purpose, occurs in response to the loss. Regrets, guilt, depression, anxiety, substance use, or eating disorders can result from one’s bereavement.
