Grief Counseling in Mt. Pleasant, SC—Counselors, Therapists
Whether you have lost a loved one, suffered a trauma, received a diagnosis, or perhaps lost a job you enjoyed, grief can feel bottomless. While grieving is a painful experience, it also helps us transform, grow and, ultimately, find peace where there was once sorrow. Counseling can help you transition from grieving to calm acceptance.
Grief can be made up of many difficult emotions — sadness, loneliness, regret, fear. We are often unable to navigate these feelings without help and guidance. If you are grieving, the professional therapists at Thriveworks Mt. Pleasant Counseling can help you process these emotions and set yourself down a path of peace and relief.
When Should I Seek Grief Counseling?
Grief can be stubborn. It doesn’t fade overnight. It can take many months to move through your grieving process and accept the new reality you are facing. You may feel withdrawn from friends and family, lose passion for the activities you used to enjoy, and replay the grief-inducing experience over and over in your mind. Even if the grief you’re experiencing isn’t preventing you from going through the motions of your day, it can be numbing and stand in the way of living your life fully. Talking to a professional therapist at Thriveworks can help.
Grief, while not a sickness, does have symptoms. If you’re experiencing any of these, it would be a good idea to seek help that grief therapy provides:
- Overeating or loss of appetite
- Sleep disturbances or irregularities
- Aggressive behavior
- Withdrawal from daily activities
- Emotional instability or unease
- Hopelessness

How Grief Counseling Can Help
While grief often manifests in stages, it can be cyclical. Difficult emotions can arise at any time. Stages can stop and restart, overlap or last an inordinately long time. It’s important for you to know that there is no one way — and no right or wrong way — to grieve. That’s where Thriveworks Mt. Pleasant Counseling can help you. Grief counseling can help you cope with, process and recover from grief. We do this by helping you:
- Accept the experience that is causing you to grieve and acknowledge that you can move on
- Stay connected to memories in a healthy and calm way
- Live more fully through your grieving and help you see a path forward
- Develop coping mechanisms for when sadness may revisit
