Frequently Asked Questions

Can grief counseling help if I’m feeling numb or not crying at all?
Yes. Everyone reacts to loss differently. Not crying doesn’t mean someone isn’t grieving, and counseling can help sort through those emotions.
What happens during a bereavement counseling session?
Most sessions involve talking about memories, emotions, and how daily life has been affected. Some counselors use tools like writing or relaxation techniques to help.
How do I know if I need grief counseling or if it’s normal sadness?
If grief is making it hard to get through the day, sleep, eat, or connect with others, counseling might be a helpful step.
Can kids or teens get bereavement counseling, too?
Yes. Many counselors work with young people and use age-appropriate ways to help them talk and express what they’re feeling.
How long does grief counseling usually last?
It varies. Some people feel better after a few sessions, while others go for a few months. It depends on the person and what they’re going through.
