Grief is not an illness. It is a normal experience, a process that needs to be dealt with. The process of accomodation is different for everyone.
Dr. Phyllis Silverman, Harvard Medical School
Grief Recovery Center
People experience grief at different times and through different events in life. Some experience grief following a divorce, or through a traumatic experience such as a hurricane that destroys the family home. Grief occurs following a chronic illness, as the result of an accident, or a death. People heal in many various ways from grief. The Grief Recovery Center can assist you in times of transition through grief to healing and wholeness.
The Grief Recovery Center assists people struggling with grief to understand, to cope with, and to adjust to their losses. It also works with professionals and non-professionals to increase their understanding of the needs of the bereaved and how best to respond to those needs.
