Processing Grief

Grief is a normal reaction to any loss. Grief is often associated with death of a loved one, but the loss does not have to be death. Some situations that may trigger grief may include:

• Chronic health problems or pain
• Death of a beloved pet
• Divorce or break-up
• A disability (permanent or temporary)
• Moving
• Death of a family member, friend, or other loved one
• Loss of independence (especially with age)
• Loss of a job
• A natural disaster

How Can Grief Therapy Help?

Unhelpful advice and myths about grief abound, but what does effective grief therapy look like? Grief therapy aims for understanding and acceptance. The feelings that come with grief are often complex, and grief therapy can help people understand those feelings and accept them.

While Thriveworks grief therapists formulate a treatment plan for each client’s unique needs, they generally aim for two goals:

• Processing the past: Before moving forward, people first need to take a step back, looking at what was lost and how it has affected them. This may include coming to terms with the difficult emotions grief can stir— anger, sadness, regret, depression, relief, and more. Thriveworks Kennesaw, GA grief therapists in Cobb County often shepherd their clients as they process their loss in a healthy way.
• Rebuilding the future: Processing the past often helps people accept a loss’ finality and then make necessary adjustments for the future. But for many bereaved, rebuilding after loss scares them. Thriveworks grief counselors understand and have navigated this fear with many clients.

Grief therapy is not a quick-fix, but many people are glad they worked with an experienced and caring Thriveworks counselor as they walked through one of life’s toughest trials.
