Grief and loss are natural responses to the death of a loved one or other significant life changes. This emotional process can be overwhelming and affect various aspects of life, including mental and physical health.
Common Symptoms of Grief and Loss:
- Persistent sadness or feelings of emptiness
- Difficulty sleeping or changes in sleep patterns
- Loss of appetite or changes in eating habits
- Trouble concentrating or making decisions
- Feelings of guilt or regret
- Emotional numbness or detachment
- Intense longing or yearning for the deceased
- Physical symptoms such as fatigue or aches
In our sessions, we use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools, including:
- Cognitive Restructuring: Identifying and challenging negative or unhelpful thoughts related to loss and adjusting thought patterns to support emotional healing.
- Behavioral Activation: Encouraging engagement in activities and routines that foster a sense of normalcy and connection.
- Grief Processing Techniques: Helping you navigate the stages of grief and develop healthy ways to cope with and express emotions.
- Mindfulness and Stress-Reduction Strategies: Techniques to manage stress and emotional pain effectively.
We provide a compassionate and supportive environment to help you process your grief, develop coping strategies, and find ways to move forward while honoring and remembering your loss.
