Loss or Grief
Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Loss is inevitable. We all die and we all lose people, relationships, and states of being that we once loved. If we open ourselves to live an authentic, honest, interdependent life, we are sure to experience loss and grief. Many of us fear it so much that we develop a multitude of ways to avoid it, strike a connection balance that we believe will help us protect ourselves later (yet that often robs our joy in the meantime), and use substances or other numbing techniques to help us avoid the complicated process of grief. I believe we can all benefit from learning to appreciate that loss is inevitable, and to learn to grieve in a way that enables us to move forward with compassion and fulfillment.

Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
Grief is a natural reaction to any form of loss, especially someone’s death. It goes beyond mere sadness and often evokes feelings of confusion, doubt, guilt, anger, and other complex emotions.
There’s no right way to grieve — everyone reacts to loss differently and grieves in their own way. There’s also no normal duration for grief; it may take months or years to accept the loss of a loved one. Nonetheless, most people can indeed recover from loss with the help of a great social support network and healthy coping mechanisms. Grief counseling provides the necessary support for those finding it hard to recover.
You may have heard of the stages of grief, which can be challenging for anyone, but grief counseling is recommended especially for individuals whose grief is affecting their daily lives.

Adria Hagg
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Loss and grief work entails understanding that grief encompasses a roller coaster of emotions. Grief work is not linear. One day, we can feel "some normalcy" and the next we feel the world is shattering around us. Grief can be a lonely journey due to feeling those around us do not understand our pain and despair. There is hope and while the grief may never go away the journey takes us to a place where our grief evolves.
