Grief and Loss

Service Description

Experiencing the loss of a loved one can be difficult, especially if it’s unexpected. While death is inevitable, it’s one of the eventualities of life that few of us are willing to admit to or acknowledge. So, when you experience loss, the shock of the moment can leave us overwhelmed by intense emotions, and even feeling a bit lost ourselves. Loss changes everything, from the way you view the world to how we experience even the simplest of things, like a bright, sunny day or a child’s laughter. With this shifting outlook comes reflection, lessons in living—as opposed to dying—and the understanding that, with our lives so fragile and in flux, it serves us better to be present in the moment, rather than dwelling in the past or anxiously anticipating the future. In other words, confronting death is, for those who remain behind, a time to reflect on the moment, gain perspective and forge a new path. This is not an easy journey, and it’s one that can days, weeks, months or even years to reveal itself and play out.
