Compassionate Support for Coping With Loss

Online grief counseling - also known as online grief therapy - is a secure and supportive way to process loss with a licensed therapist through virtual sessions. Grief is a natural response to loss, yet it can feel overwhelming, isolating, and unpredictable. Grief counseling provides a safe space to explore emotions, honor your experience, and find ways to move forward without minimizing the significance of what has been lost.

What Is Online Grief Counseling?

Online grief counseling is delivered via HIPAA-compliant telehealth by licensed professionals trained in bereavement and loss.

Therapy helps individuals understand grief responses, build coping skills, and integrate loss meaningfully, rather than rushing healing. Evidence-informed approaches include grief-informed counseling, attachment-based and emotion-focused therapy, trauma-informed care, and meaning-centered or narrative approaches, acknowledging that grief is deeply personal and non-linear.

How Grief Counseling Helps With Coping After a Loss

Grief impacts emotional, cognitive, physical, and relational well-being. Online grief therapy supports processing loss, reducing isolation, and building coping strategies.

It helps with intense sadness, guilt, anger, adjustment challenges, anxiety, depression, traumatic loss, and complicated grief, enabling individuals to navigate reminders, anniversaries, and life transitions with resilience.

What to Expect in Online Grief Therapy Sessions

Online grief counseling is individualized but typically includes emotional support, understanding grief responses, processing loss and meaning-making, and developing coping strategies.

Telehealth allows participation from a private, familiar setting, supporting engagement during intense periods of mourning.

Is Online Grief Counseling Right for Me?

Online grief counseling is appropriate for individuals at any stage of grief—whether the loss is recent or occurred years ago. There is no “right” time to seek therapy. Some people begin counseling immediately after a loss, while others reach out when grief resurfaces later in life.

Grief therapy can be especially helpful if grief feels overwhelming, isolating, or disruptive to daily functioning, or if you feel stuck or unsupported in your healing process.
