Michelle Parrella
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Losing a loved one to suicide is a traumatic experience that turns your world upside down. Suicide brings shock, grief, heartbreak, and pain. Feelings of denial, anger, guilt, yearning or despair wash over you and can get in the way of daily life; leaving you feeling hopeless about the future. Each day you struggle, wading through the fog and aftermath, feeling overwhelmed by day to day tasks. You’re exhausted mentally, physically, emotionally and find yourself unexpectedly triggered by thoughts and memories.
Maybe you wish you would have had more time together, or you feel regret for setting boundaries in your relationship, only to have it come to this end. Each day you wake asking yourself if it was all a dream, only to remember it wasn’t and tumble right back into feelings of sadness and despair.
Compassionate grief counseling creates a space where you can unpack and sort through the overwhelming feelings of grief. We’ll work together to build a path and a culture of healing that works best for you, and the fog you’re feeling will begin to lift. You’ll start to sleep and eat again. The pain and misery will ease, and making decisions get easier, life will become more manageable in the day to day. In time, you will feel stronger, be able to renew relationships and find new ways to move through life while honoring your loved one.
