We all experience grief as a normal reaction to the losses that occur within the span of a lifetime. The death of a loved one, a parent, a child, a pet, a friend, or the loss of a job often elicit powerful emotions that can be hard to cope with. When these emotions become overwhelming, making it difficult to complete everyday tasks and responsibilities in your personal or professional life, please consider seeking the help of our trained, licensed therapist at Hackensack.
Each person experiences grief in his or her own way, and there is no timetable for how long these feelings may persist. Grief can affect people in different ways, and sometimes it may be confusing to see the connection between the loss you’ve suffered and your feelings. Working with our empathic, compassionate therapist in a private, confidential and comforting setting provides a framework for recovery and healing. Sharing your feelings and reactions with an active listener can make a meaningful difference in the recovery process.
Our therapist is expert at identifying the stages of grief that accompany a loss, and pinpointing the feelings that come as a direct result. We shall guide you on a path to accepting the loss, working through the pain associated with that loss, and adapting to your life moving forward. It is through our work together that our patients learn to identify behaviors that may be hindering them from moving forward, and developing useful coping strategies for navigating the challenges that may arise during birthdays, holidays, anniversaries, or other times that may trigger these emotions.
Working together with our therapist at Hackensack, our patients arrive at a place where they can accept their loss and build a bridge to a new life. Whether the loss recently occurred, or you have been experiencing these feelings for some time, we can help. Please contact our office to arrange a confidential meeting.
