Healing Looks Different for Everyone

Grief doesn’t follow a timeline. One moment you’re okay, the next you’re hit by a memory, a scent, a wave of emotion that knocks the wind out of you.

No matter if it’s been days or years, loss leaves a mark. But we want you to know, you’re not broken. And you’re not alone.

Do you feel isolated with no one to turn to?

We have your back. You’re stronger than you think. And we are here to guide you through your grief no matter what symptoms you’re facing. Whether you’re experiencing:

Isolation
Suicidal Thoughts
Restlessness
Intense sorrow
Trust Issues

We Understand What You’re Going Through

Grief isn’t one-size-fits-all. It can look different for everyone, and even change over time. Recognizing how grief is showing up in your life can be the first step toward healing.

Anticipatory Grief

Grieving before a loss occurs, often when a loved one has a terminal illness. Without support, this can lead to caregiver burnout, relationship strain, and feeling emotionally depleted when the loss actually happens.

Complicated Grief

When grief feels stuck or overwhelming months or years after a loss. Left untreated, this can result in chronic depression, anxiety, difficulty maintaining relationships, and an inability to find meaning or joy in life.

Chronic Grief

Grief that continues intensely without lessening over time. This can lead to physical health problems, social isolation, and difficulty functioning in daily life or work.

Delayed Grief

When grief is postponed and emerges weeks, months, or years later. When it finally surfaces, it can feel overwhelming and confusing, often triggering anxiety, depression, or sudden emotional breakdowns.

Inhibited Grief

When grief is suppressed or doesn't seem to show up at all. This can result in emotional numbness, unexpected anger outbursts, physical symptoms, or grief emerging in unhealthy ways later.

Better Care Starts with Therapists Who Are Cared For

You’ve probably experienced it before, sitting across from a therapist who seems distracted, rushed, or just going through the motions. Maybe they kept checking the clock, or you felt like they were already thinking about their next appointment.

That’s what happens when therapists are overworked and burnt out. And it directly impacts your healing.

We do things differently. We put our therapists first because when they’re supported and energized, you get their best work—and better results.

What this means for your healing:

No overloaded caseloads: Your therapist isn’t overwhelmed with clients, so they can give you personalized attention.
No burnout: Our therapists have energy to be fully present and engaged in your progress.
No rushed sessions or quotas: Your breakthrough moments aren’t cut short by time pressure.
Full presence: They remember your story, track your progress, and adapt their approach to what works for you.

The result? You heal faster, feel more understood, and look forward to your sessions. When your therapist feels supported, you get the focused, compassionate care that leads to real breakthroughs.

That’s the Lifebulb promise.

Treatment Options for Grief & Loss

Treatment Options for Grief & Loss
Grieving is one of life’s most challenging experiences. Our bereavement therapists will help you move through it in your own way and in your own time.

Our proven approaches include:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Helps you understand the connection between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors after loss. You’ll learn healthy coping skills and identify thought patterns that may be keeping you stuck.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Uses mindfulness to help you accept difficult emotions rather than avoiding them. Especially helpful for complicated grief, ACT teaches you to process feelings you may have been pushing away and develop healthier emotional patterns.

Traumatic Grief Therapy

For sudden or traumatic losses that create intense grief paired with trauma symptoms. This approach gives you coping skills to calm your nervous system and manage triggering situations while processing both the grief and trauma.

Complicated Grief Treatment (CGT)

Designed for grief that feels stuck or overwhelming. CGT helps you fully honor your loved one’s memory while building resilience. Focuses on seven core areas: understanding grief, managing pain, planning your future, strengthening relationships, talking about your loss, handling reminders, and staying connected to memories.

FAQ

What is grief & loss?

Grief is your natural emotional response to losing someone or something important to you. While sadness is common, grief can also include shock, numbness, anger, or guilt. Everyone grieves differently, and there’s no “right” timeline for healing.

What are the effects of grief?

Grief affects your whole being, emotionally, physically, and mentally. Common effects include:

Intense sadness, anger, guilt, or numbness
Trouble sleeping, eating, or concentrating
Physical symptoms like fatigue, headaches, or body aches
Withdrawing from activities you used to enjoy
Feeling like you can’t function normally

If these symptoms feel overwhelming or aren’t improving over time, therapy can help.

What does your first session look like?

We understand seeking help takes courage, so we focus on understanding what you’re going through and showing you how therapy can help. You’ll leave feeling heard and with a clear sense of how we can support your healing.

What insurance do you accept?

We accept most major insurance plans, including Aetna, Amerihealth, Cigna, Optum Health, United Healthcare, Tricare, and more. We’ll verify your benefits before your first session. If we don’t take your insurance, we offer affordable self-pay rates.

We put our therapists first because we know that supported, energized therapists provide the best care. Our focus is creating an environment where our team can thrive—which means you get a therapist who’s fully present, passionate about their work, and has the time and energy to focus completely on your healing journey.
