When can therapy be helpful in the grief recovery process?
Therapy is available anytime to help people who need a sounding board and a safe place to talk about their loss. Everyone grieves differently, and there is no one way to grieve. But when ongoing grief continues to stir you up, or you feel you’re having a hard time after a loss — It’s a good idea to check in. The ability to vent your feelings can do wonders. Sometimes people have endured a variety of losses, big and small, and perhaps a traumatic event or two. When fresh loss and grief is layered on top of these previous losses it can feel overwhelming. Talking through your feelings in therapy at such times can be very freeing.
