Grief and Loss

Grief can arise from many life transitions including:
Death
Loss of a job/retirement
Loss of a relationship/divorce

Grief

It is normal and acceptable to have a strong reaction to losses in our lives. The wide range of emotions occurring because of a loss need to be welcomed, understood, and normalized.

We do not grieve in a linear way, so we do not move through stages.

Grief is unique to each relationship and experience.

There is not a correct way of grieving and there is no specific timeframe.
