Byron Clinic -Byron Bay- Exclusive therapeutic retreat

Losing someone you love through death or separation is very painful. After a significant loss, you may experience many kinds of uncomfortable emotions, including shock, anger, and guilt. You may feel physically exhausted or sick. Often with a feeling of overwhelming sadness that just does not go away. Emotions that are so intense that you can feel out of control, affecting every part of your being from lack of appetite to difficulties getting rest or sleep to even thoughts of self harm.

Grieving is a personal and highly individual experience, there is no correct way to handle the pain of grief, everybody is unique. How we cope with pain and loss is often influenced by our developmental learning. This time of vulnerability may elicit some uncomfortable personal feelings that may have you thinking there is no end.

Grieving takes time and healing generally happens gradually. Some can start to feel better in months while for others it may take years. It is important to be patient with yourself and allow the process to naturally unfold. At Byron Clinic Byron Bay psychotherapy remains a vital component of treatment, helping put things into perspective and develop balance and stability. Complementary therapies are integrated into the treatment plan to help ease suffering and to support in gaining comfort and understanding.
