Coping with a Loss

Grief or bereavement is a multi-faceted natural response to loss, especially the death of a loved one.   Other losses that may cause grief are loss of a romantic relationship or friendship, loss of a job, financial setbacks, miscarriage or fetal loss, death of a pet, loss of health with illness or age, loss of a life dream or loss of a sense of safety after a trauma.
