In addition to empathetic counseling I encourage the individual to join a grief counseling group. I often find that a person in deep grief may have unresolved issues with the deceased. I am aware of the many types of grief experiences as well. People may experience grief over the loss of a relationship, the death of a loved one or even a beloved pet.

Grief results from many types of loss. A loss can be the death of a loved one, a breakup, losing a job, or a change in financial security. We can also experience the loss of our identity, purpose, ability, or level of functioning. Everyday life events, such as moving, can involve adjusting to a new city, culture, or trying to make new friends. This can mean grieving the loss of a life we used to have.
In order to successfully grieve, we need create new meaning in our lives. However, certain things can get in the way of this process. These “stuck points” might include anger and resentment, guilt, seeing the lost person or thing as being “all good” or “all bad,” or having difficulty talking about the loss.
