Losing a loved one is a difficult time for anyone. Most people go through five stages of grief. These are considered normal, but grief and loss counselling can help you move through them more efficiently and help you move forward.
While shock, sadness, anger, guilt, and anxiety are all feelings that are experienced when grieving, they can be overwhelming if they come on all at once or you’re not emotionally (or physically) prepared to deal with them. Sometimes, people experience numbness instead of emotion. Others worry that they won’t be happy again. Seeing a counsellor supports you through your challenging time.
For many, grief and loss counselling is the only way for them to let out their feelings. You may not be allowed to grieve or show your feelings openly in your current surroundings. If you have children or a spouse, they may not want to see you so upset, so you hide your feelings. While this can be helpful for short periods, you have to let yourself feel them at some point. If you don’t have a strong support system at home or with friends, a counsellor is there to let all those emotions flow free and help you work through them.
