Supporting individuals navigate the complexities of grief and loss

Grief is the emotional reaction we encounter as a result of the death of something or someone. It is an intense, complex, chaotic and experiential process that leaves us questioning our own place in the world. As hard as we may try to avoid the heaviness, sadness or anger that comes with losing something or someone of value, it catches up to us. We begin to dream these stories, we engage in behaviors that seem foreign to us, and, as hard as we may try, we lose ourselves and the small hope we may have had.

To begin to grieve is to create space to remember and to “sit with” the pain, discomfort and unpredictability that encompassess such loss.
