There are numerous types of mental health practitioners who have specialized skills, hundreds of hours of supervised clinical therapy experience and graduate degrees in their field of study.  Counseling can be an effective tool to use while moving through the various stages of healing grief and trauma because these professionals can:

• Assist in "old life" and "new life" integration
• Offer positive ways to process grief and trauma
• Tailor therapeutic options toward individual life experiences
• Provide a safe space for all thoughts, feelings and emotions.
