Loss & Bereavement

While grief itself is a universal experience, each individual’s response to it is highly personal. Many times, individuals may feel unable to deal with their grief or to express the emotions associated with a loss in their life.

It is important to understand that grief affects not only the emotional responses of a person, but also the behavioral, physical and psychological processes. Physical responses such as loss of appetite, inability to concentrate, and a change in sleeping patterns, are all completely normal.

 The job of a Psychologist is to help people accept loss, providing them with time to grieve, and to get back to leading a happy life
