Grief and Loss Northern Beaches

Dealing with grief and loss alone and as a family can be very difficult. Unresolved or “complicated” grief doesn’t appear to ease over time. As with any grief the intensity of the loss is marked in the initial months, however, those with unresolved grief report no lessening of intensity over time. Sometimes it can lead to feelings of no meaning or purpose in life, and also report a loss of fun and enjoyment. Seeking counselling can help you overcome challenges of loss and can help you move forward as a family following natural and traumatic passing. The combination of using trauma therapy and cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) can help individuals grieve naturally without being overcome with grief while supporting you through such loss.  

Trauma counselling and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy.

Grief is often an experience of negative emotion that flows from events where a close person has passed away, which can be a traumatic experience on the individual. There can be an overbearing amount of suffering that can impact on daily life activities and makes tasks such as funeral planning a difficult one to achieve. CIT Counselling uses trauma therapy and cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) to ensure you have healthy beliefs and behaviours around grief while providing you with support to help you in your ability to overcome the oppressive sadness and shock from a traumatic death.

Is counselling for grief and loss right for you?

Counselling can help you to deal with grief and loss so that you can enjoy the happy memories with the individual who passed, instead of being bogged down in the grief that their passing has caused. Counselling for grief and loss may use trauma therapy and cognitive behaviour therapy to help you overcome the feelings of sadness that you are experiencing and rediscover the joys that you shared with the lost individual. If you are struggling to overcome grief following a loss, counselling could be the right path for you to follow.
