What Is Grief Counseling?

Grief therapists seek to provide people who are grieving with the guidance they need to process the grief so they can move forward with a fulfilling life. Grief counselors are a compassionate guide through a painful season.

The counselors at Thriveworks Arlington, VA individualize treatment to each client, but in general, they help their clients achieve two goals:

• Dealing with the loss: Grief needs to be processed, and stepping toward health often looks like taking a step back to reflect and deal with the loss. Thriveworks therapists understand how excruciating this can be and know how to guide and support their clients through the pain.
• Looking to the future: Most people who are grieving would turn time back if they could and restore what was lost. Unfortunately, life doesn’t work like that. The good news is that, with support and guidance, many people can rebuild happiness and purpose into their life again. Therapy can help the bereaved develop a new future.
