In this video I'm talking about the 5 stages of grief... as a LMFT who has worked closely with grief and grieving with many of my patients, along with my personal grief journey, I'm here to tell you that I think the 5 stages of grief we often refer to are archaic and should not be followed closely. So what does grief or the grieving journey actually look like? And in my research and experience, what is grieving actually like? And what can we grieve? And how does grieving a loved one differ from grief recovery from other areas? In this video I'm talking you through my grief journey and what I believe to be true around grief, grieving and the grief journey.
