Therapy for Grief
Pickering & Virtual Across Ontario
Common symptoms include:
EMOTIONAL WAVES
Grief often involves many emotions beyond sadness, including anger, guilt, relief, or confusion. These shifts are a natural part of the grieving process.
Grief can feel lonely, especially when others expect you to move on quickly. You may feel misunderstood or disconnected from everyone.
NUMBNESS
At times you may feel emotionally shut down or disconnected from what’s happening around you. This can be your mind’s way of protecting you when the loss feels too overwhelming.
POOR CONCENTRATION
Grief can make it hard to focus, remember things, or complete everyday tasks. Your mind may feel foggy as it processes the loss.
How Therapy Can Help:
Grief therapy provides a supportive space to process loss at your own pace. Rather than forcing closure, therapy can help you integrate the loss while continuing to move forward in meaningful ways.
