Grief is natural if you have lost someone, which may be but is not necessarily due to death. The loss may always be with you. But grief should not be. Many people become stuck when the death of a loved one is violent or unexpected. The loss is accompanied by trauma. When this happens, people often get stuck with the circumstances of the death, and are unable to grieve or get over the trauma. Trauma therapy will help you to remember the person in a positive way.

There have been instances when clients have brought their grief to therapy that was causing them major pain and in such instances, these emotions can morph into quite overwhelming situations. The supportive and safe environment my relational psychotherapy practice offers can be effective in reducing such unrelenting feelings. With the correct sort of professional therapy available in my private practice and given the right amount of time, my clients recover from their specific feelings of loss and successfully adjusted to their next phase of life.
Naturally, each client’s experience with grief is equally unique and complex, as well as being personal. Grief may cover such aspects as the demise of a loved one or friend, or it could involve a life changing circumstance, such as a relational break-up, or even a job loss. The client’s culture, personality and past life-experiences may all affect their particular grieving process.
With my relational psychotherapy, I do my utmost to tailor each therapy programme to specifically meet each client’s particular needs. In many instances, one useful aim of my therapy service is to contribute to the maintenance and enhancement of healthy connections with client’s circle of family and friends. Equally, many clients may find catharsis while talking about both their current and lost loved ones. Reflection on positive memories may strengthen client’s bond with the lost person.
This reaffirmation of the client’s bond may effectively reduce any possible “sting” from the loss felt. That said, every effort is taken by me to balance all attachments within therapy. In complicated grief, a client may feel hopeless and desire to join the lost loved one.
Another common goal with my relational psychotherapy is to facilitate the listening process. There are occasions when society may stigmatize the client for grieving in a certain way. However, my therapy approach is to assist the client to express their feelings without any form of judgment.

Grief is a natural response to loss, of someone or something we have loved. But grief can become prolonged (complex) to the extent that it interferes with daily life. It may be associated with unresolved trauma and overwhelming negative emotions like shame, guilt or feelings of abandonment. Mind-body therapies can help you make sense of what you are experiencing, work through issues, and release trauma from the body. The Rewind technique can be helpful in addressing grief.
