What is your go-to approach for grief & loss counseling?

Helping others in grief and loss counseling can include talking about the loss, learning about grief, and developing a new self identity post the loss. I enjoy seeing benefits of how the person can identify the unhealthy versus the healthy ways to behave post the loss.

What tools do you teach in grief & loss counseling?

Tools used in grief and loss counseling can include learning how to understand how loss is different from depression, how to see unhealthy behaviors on their day to day lives, and helping others develop new identities.

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in grief & loss counseling?

Ways to measure meaning progress is reporting ways to behave differently, talking about loss, building coping strategies and how to handle anniversaries.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement grief & loss counseling?

Clients can supplement their time outside of counseling with monitoring healthy behaviors that formerly were harmful behaviors prior, talking with others about the loss, and understanding how to differential between grief and other things such as depression.

What should someone do to prepare for starting grief & loss counseling?

Prior to sessions, the client can read about grief and how it's different from other mental health conditions.

Starting Grief & loss counseling

What type of counseling is needed when a person cannot get over the grief of losing a loved one?

Grief and loss counseling helps people grieve difficult losses including the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, or the end of a relationship. It helps people navigate their grief process and eventually accept, understand, and move forward from their loss. Thriveworks grief therapists in Dallas, GA have specific experience, training, and skills that enable them to best support grieving individuals.

How does grief and loss counseling work?

Grief and loss counseling isn’t one-size-fits-all, but it involves sharing about your loss and then working with your counselor to acknowledge and accept your new reality in its wake. Your provider at Thriveworks in Dallas, GA will design your treatment plan around your unique needs and goals for therapy, applying the counseling techniques that best support them.

Signs I should seek grief counseling

If you have recently experienced an event like the death of a loved one, a breakup or divorce, the loss of a job, or another major life change, then you may want to seek grief and loss counseling. Grief can be caused by many experiences and events, so if you feel that you are having trouble moving on from a certain event or find that it is still impacting your life and functioning, grief and loss counseling can help you process it more effectively so that you can move on and once again find fulfillment and satisfaction in your life.

What counseling theory is best for grief?

There are many counseling theories for treating grief, one of the most frequently used being the dual process model of grief which helps people acknowledge who or what they’ve lost through rumination while also adjusting to the new roles and identities that this loss has now placed on them. There are also many commonly used therapy approaches used in grief and loss counseling, including Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and traumatic grief therapy.

Is grief counseling conducted in person or online?

Grief & loss counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does grief counseling last?

For many, grief and loss counseling lasts for about 6 months. For others, it may last shorter or longer, depending on the severity of their loss and their grief.

I am incredibly grateful for the support and guidance my therapist has provided. From the very beginning, she created a safe and welcoming space where I felt heard, understood, and truly cared for. Her approach is both compassionate and insightful, allowing me to work through my thoughts and emotions in a way that feels productive and empowering.. . What I appreciate most is her ability to listen without judgment while offering thoughtful perspectives that have helped me grow both emotionally and mentally. She has a way of making even the most challenging topics feel manageable, and I always leave each session with a sense of clarity and reassurance.. . There is absolutely nothing I would change about my experience. The level of care, professionalism, and dedication my therapist provides is exceptional, and I genuinely feel supported every step of the way. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a compassionate and skilled therapist who truly makes a difference.

I've been to other therapists and it didn't feel personable or helpful. I would always have to 'refresh' the therapist on topics we had already covered. I have yet to have to do that with Chris. He seems to always listen and he provides valuable insight, and helpful interaction. A very good experience so far!
