Everyone experiences losses in their lives but the way each of us processes these losses may be different. There are expected stages and feelings that are associated with grief – if these are not possessed, grief can continue to have mental and physical impacts on your life. At FEM Women’s Wellness, we offer effective processing loss therapy for our patients coping with grief at our clinic in the Carson City, Reno and Lake Tahoe, NV, area.
Grief is the reaction to loss, but not only from death. Any type of loss can result in the anger and sadness that comes with grief. Whether it is losing a parent or child, or the dissolution of a marriage or friendship, grief can take a significant toll on your mental health if the loss is not processed. To come to terms with the loss, it is important to go through the expected phases of denial, anger, bargaining and depression to finally reach acceptance. However, not everyone experiences all these phases or has a linear path to overcoming their grief.
Methods for Coping with Grief
It is natural to grieve but there is a difference between normal grieving and unhealthy grief effects. When grief manifests into physical effects such as weight loss, sleep disorders or mental health disorders, therapy is needed to overcome and process the loss. The methods used for coping with grief and loss may be different for each person. At FEM Women’s Wellness, we provide a personalized therapy plan for each patient to achieve the desired outcome.
Grief is a universal emotion that can have powerful effects on your life. Divorce, death, estrangement and other types of loss need to be processed, but not everyone can do it alone. When grief manifests into mental, emotional or physical effects on your life, processing loss therapy can help you move past the loss and improve your well-being for the future.
