About grief & bereavement counsellors therapy
Grief is not a disorder — but prolonged grief and complicated bereavement often benefit from professional support. Therapists who specialize in grief understand that the process is nonlinear, highly individual, and distinct from clinical depression. They will not try to move you through stages on a timeline.
What to look for: Look for practitioners who describe grief as a specialty rather than just listing it as one of many concerns they treat. Experience with your specific type of loss (sudden death, anticipatory grief, estrangement) is a meaningful differentiator.
