Navigating Loss and Grief with Strides Psychotherapy

Loss is a universal human experience, whether it’s the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or the loss of a job or identity. Grief is the emotional response to that loss, often involving a mix of emotions such as sadness, anger, confusion, and even relief. While grief is a natural part of healing, it can feel overwhelming and isolating, making it difficult to move forward.

Common Types of Loss:

  • Death of a loved one

  • Divorce or the end of a relationship

  • Loss of a job or career

  • Health-related changes or diagnoses

  • Relocation or leaving a familiar environment

  • Unmet expectations or life transitions

How Loss and Grief Can Affect You:

  • Persistent sadness or feelings of emptiness

  • Difficulty concentrating or making decisions

  • Changes in sleep or appetite

  • Feelings of guilt, regret, or helplessness

  • Avoidance of reminders of the loss

  • Struggles to find meaning or purpose
