The many shapes of loss
Whether it’s the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, or a breakup or divorce, loss can present itself in different shapes. Although experiencing loss and grief is a universal experience that we all go through, how your grief presents itself and impacts your life is just as unique as you are. If you are finding it particularly difficult to cope with your loss, then it may be time to speak to someone.
Why grief therapy?
Grief is a painful issue, complicated by the fact that no-one is taught how to grieve. Rarely do people want to discuss loss and death, and feelings of isolation and loneliness may further prevent you from healing during your grief journey. In grief therapy, you will find a space where you can grieve freely without shame or stigma, and where your unique needs during grief will be recognized and understood. During this process, you will also learn. Learn how to grieve in a way that is healthy and respectful to both yourself and the ones you lost. Learn the specific ways your grief is triggered and how to cope with it. And learn how to live with your losses so you may return to the world with a sense of joy, love, and renewed appreciation.
