GRIEF COUNSELING

GRIEF COUNSELING CHICAGO, IL

Everyone will experience losses over the course of their life. People may lose loved ones, their sense of safety, their employment, a life role, or a physical ability among other things. Your mind and body often react to grief with high anxiety or feelings of sadness or anger, making it difficult to take care of yourself and plan for the future. Counseling can be a useful place to think about a loss, feel emotionally supported and help you work through the immediate, more overwhelming feelings of grief. Our therapists in Chicago at Midwest Center for Hope & Healing are here to help you navigate the emotional weight of your experience.

HOW DO I KNOW IF I SHOULD WORK ON CONFLICT RESOLUTION?

Anyone can benefit from working on grief in counseling. They may especially need extra support if they experience:
 

feeling numb or bitter

trouble accepting the loss

intense sorrow or pain

trouble focusing on anything else

avoidance of things that remind them of the loss

belief they could have prevented the loss

withdrawal from others

struggle with following a routine

GRIEF COUNSELING

The counseling room is a calm space to help you feel supported and do good thinking about how a loss has affected your life. Anxiety may be high in a family or community after a loss, so counseling can be a special time where you can share your struggles and hopes without feeling you are burdening others. Our counselors can help you identify ways to cope with grief as well as potential barriers or challenges that can get in the way of healthy grieving. We can also help you think about how your life and various life roles may have shifted after a loss.
