Grief, Chronic Health Conditions & Life Changes

Loss can cause unspeakable pain. When someone close to you dies, it can feel like there’s no going forward.

Feelings of grief and loss are not only felt because of a death but can also be experienced when you or someone you know has been diagnosed with a chronic health condition, chronic pain or when someone experiences a complete lifestyle change and/or takes on the caregiver role.

It can feel lonely, isolating, stressful and can even at times bring on a sense of shame and so much regret.

Therapy can provide:

· A safe space to decompress and talk about grief and loss without worrying about someone else’s emotions

· A safe space to help learn techniques to possibly reduce pain, stress, Anxiety and Depression

· The ability to improve psychological well-being to enhance coping mechanisms and increase overall quality of life

· Support in discovering how to manage lifestyle changes

· Help to find a support system and work through withdrawal, isolation and loneliness

· A safe space to address feelings of self-blame, regret, anger, denial and shock

· Provide support with the loss of a loved one through supporting you through adjusting to life without your loved one, acknowledging your pain, be an anchor of support while you discover ways to be gentle with yourself and learn ways to care for your well-being and cope with your loss.
