Grief and Loss Therapy
Grief and Loss Therapy in Kenya
“Grief is love that has nowhere left to go. It can follow the loss of a person, a relationship, a role, or a version of life you expected to have and it rarely moves in a straight line. Grief therapy at Healing Aura isn’t about “getting over” your loss. It’s about finding a way to carry it that still leaves room for the rest of your life. ”
How long is it normal to grieve?
There’s no fixed timeline. Some people move through the sharpest pain within months; others carry a quieter version of it for years. If grief is stopping you from functioning day-to-day after several months, it’s worth speaking to a therapist.
Is it normal to still grieve years after a loss?
Yes. Grief can resurface around anniversaries, milestones, or unexpected reminders long after a loss. That doesn’t mean you haven’t healed, it means the relationship still matters.
When should I see a therapist for grief?
If grief is affecting your sleep, work, relationships, or sense of hope for an extended period, or feels complicated by guilt or anger, a psychologist can help you process it safely.
