Grief is a natural response to loss, whether it's the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a significant life transition, or another form of loss. It encompasses a range of emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations, and it's important to understand that everyone experiences grief differently. There's no right or wrong way to grieve, and it's normal to feel a mix of emotions such as sadness, anger, guilt, confusion, and even moments of peace and acceptance.
GRIEF COUNSELING:
FINDING SUPPORT THROUGH LOSS
Grief is profound and affects every part of your well-being. Beyond the intense sadness, you may be grappling with difficulties in concentration, memory, and decision-making. Feelings of anger, guilt, fatigue, and insomnia are common. Grief can also strain relationships and lead you to question your sense of self and the meaning of life.
