Grief

SERVICES

Grief is a normal, yet unique experience that comes with many nuances. This means it may not look like any one person’s frame of reference and it can feel and also appear as something that is unfamiliar. Normal grief is not a mental illness or disorder, but if left untreated grief can develop into other serious mental illness.

Understanding the Complexities of Grief

Did you know...Grief can take on similar characteristics of mental disorders like depression or anxiety. If normal grief is not given the care and attention needed, grief can transform into depression or anxiety.

 

The advantage of working with a grief specialist is through the development of this expertise a specialist will possess the necessary knowledge and awareness to avoid misdiagnosis since on the surface an individual’s concerns may appear to be depression or anxiety because these symptoms are more commonly recognized and do have some overlap.

 

Identifying grief as the root of an individual’s problem(s) can be uncovered more efficiently and the journey of effectively facilitating the healing process can begin, which will save a client both time and money.

 

Individual counseling is available for individuals who are ready to overcome unhelpful grief habits, prioritize their vision of healing, and navigate the grieving process through either grief counseling or grief therapy!
