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 Lubbock, TX 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 Lubbock, TX 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.

Do I Need Grief Therapy?

When working with a mental health professional in grief counseling sessions, you’ll be able to tackle and work through some of the worst grief can throw at you, including: 

  • Anger
  • Depressive thoughts
  • Denial
  • Fatigue
  • Poor mood 
  • Low appetite 
  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Social isolation and loneliness
  • And many other unique consequences of significant loss

If you’re feeling any of the above symptoms, it’s possible that you could really benefit from talking with someone via grief counseling at Thriveworks Lubbock, TX.  

How Does Grief Therapy Work?

As mentioned before, you’ll attend sessions in-person (or through online therapy, if you’d rather) with your grief counselor. They may use one or more of the following counseling methods to treat your symptoms:

  • Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is a therapeutic approach that assists clients in processing the impact of grief and/or a significant loss or life event. ACT can help you to realistically accept the source of your grief, and commit to making the changes needed (with a therapist’s help, of course!) to cope in a healthy manner. 
  • Family or group therapy is often an effective way for families, coworkers, friends, and other groups to collectively talk through the symptoms of grief and the shared impact of a significant loss. Family therapy and group therapy can work to reduce feelings of isolation and loneliness, and reinforce interpersonal connections. 
  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)  is one of the most popular forms of therapy, and can be particularly effective at helping clients to identify depressive thoughts, triggers of anger, or even feelings of disbelief or denial during the grieving process. When CBT is used as a grief counseling treatment, it will help you to identify and change unconscious and unconscious thought patterns that can negatively influence your behavior and emotions. 

Advantages of Online Grief Counseling

The advantages of online therapy at Thriveworks Lubbock are a compelling reason to consider this virtual option over traditional sessions. You might want to consider online grief counseling if you’re: 

  • Frequently traveling
  • Often home watching kids or elderly relatives
  • Have health restrictions or mobility issues that make in-person sessions an inconvenience
  • In favor of meeting a counselor for grief counseling sessions from the comfort of your home
  • Are attending with other relatives or loved ones in different states 

Regardless of the reasons you might choose, online grief counseling is another safe, effective, and reliable method of recovery when it comes to treating the symptoms of grief and loss.
