Support for Grief, Loss & Healing
Grief therapy isn’t about forgetting your loss or simply “moving on.” It provides a supportive place to understand and express difficult emotions, adjust to changes in your life, develop healthy ways to cope, and find a path forward while continuing to honor the people, relationships, or experiences that matter to you.
- Process Difficult Emotions
- Navigate Life After Loss
- Develop Healthy Coping Skills
- Work Through Guilt & Regret
- Reconnect With Others
- Find Meaning & Hope
Individual therapy provides a private, supportive space to process grief at your own pace. Your therapist can help you navigate sadness, anger, guilt, loneliness, or other emotions while developing healthy ways to cope with loss and adjust to the changes it has brought to your life.
Loss can affect partners differently, sometimes creating distance or misunderstanding during an already difficult time. Couples therapy can help partners communicate about grief, understand each other’s needs, navigate changes in their relationship, and find ways to support one another while grieving in their own ways.
Children and teens may experience and express grief differently than adults. Therapy provides an age-appropriate space to understand loss, express difficult emotions, ask questions, and develop healthy coping skills while helping families support young people through the grieving process.
Grief itself is a natural response to loss and doesn’t automatically require medication. However, grief can sometimes occur alongside significant depression, anxiety, sleep difficulties, or other mental health concerns. Our psychiatric providers can evaluate these symptoms and discuss whether medication may be appropriate as part of an individualized treatment plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
There is no specific point at which someone “should” seek grief therapy. Counseling may be helpful if grief feels overwhelming, you’re having difficulty functioning in everyday life, you’re feeling isolated or stuck, or you simply want a supportive place to process your loss. You don’t have to wait until grief becomes unmanageable to seek support.
Grief therapy provides a supportive environment to process emotions, understand your experience of loss, develop healthy coping strategies, and adjust to changes in your life. The goal isn’t to erase grief but to help you find ways to carry your loss while continuing to live meaningfully.
There is no universal timeline for grief. Its intensity often changes over time, and emotions can return unexpectedly around anniversaries, holidays, milestones, or other reminders. Therapy can help you understand your individual grieving process without placing expectations on how quickly you should feel differently.
Grief counseling can support many types of loss, including the death of a loved one, pregnancy or infant loss, pet loss, divorce or separation, serious illness, changes in health or independence, and other significant life transitions.
Yes. Therapy can help children and teens understand loss and express emotions in developmentally appropriate ways. A therapist can also help parents and caregivers understand how grief may appear in young people and how to support them at home.
Grief and depression can share symptoms such as sadness, changes in sleep, difficulty concentrating, or withdrawal, but they are not the same experience. Grief is a natural response to loss, while depression is a mental health condition that may require specific treatment. A mental health professional can help evaluate what you’re experiencing.
Many insurance plans may cover outpatient therapy when services meet the plan’s requirements for behavioral healthcare. Coverage for grief counseling can depend on your individual circumstances, plan, provider, and diagnosis, so benefits should be verified before beginning treatment.
There is no right way to grieve.
Grief doesn’t follow a predictable schedule, and healing doesn’t mean leaving someone or something important behind. Some days may feel manageable while others bring emotions you weren’t expecting.
Therapy can give you permission to experience grief in your own way while helping you gradually adjust to what has changed. The goal isn’t to forget your loss—it’s to find a way to carry it while continuing to live, connect, and find meaning.
