Loss & Bereavement

Grief: a human reaction to loss

Grief isn't limited to the loss of a loved one. It can also occur following a separation, a move, a career change, the loss of a pet, or even the loss of a dream or a physical ability. These losses, whether visible or invisible, can profoundly disrupt your emotional balance.

We offer a safe space to express your grief, understand your reactions, and go through mourning at your own pace, without judgment.

When should you consult a psychologist for bereavement?

The grieving process is unique to each individual. Some people feel a need for support quickly, while others seek it after several months or even years.

You could benefit from psychological support if you are experiencing:

  • A deep, persistent sadness

  • Difficulty resuming your usual activities

  • A feeling of emptiness or loss of meaning

  • Anger, guilt, or regret

  • Social isolation or sleep disorders

  • An inability to accept the reality of loss
