“People do not come to therapy to change their past but to change their FUTURE” by Milton Erickson. This quote speaks volumes in what therapy is about to me. Often people find therapy as drudging up past issues that they don't want to think about or find therapy as a sign of weakness. Therapy is quite the opposite. Therapy is a great strength that a person can bring into their life to help them live their life to their fullest potential. We are not our past or current situations. I have been a social worker for 25 years and worked in a variety of settings including mental health clinic and psychiatric hospital programs.

Learning to adjust to loss and figuring out how to live life again in a meaningful way may be what you are looking for in grief counseling.
