Trauma and grief are deeply personal experiences that can leave lasting emotional and physical effects. Studies show that untreated trauma can significantly impact mental health, leading to conditions such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD.
​
Grief, too, can feel overwhelming, whether it’s due to the loss of a loved one, a major life transition, or unresolved emotions. At J&M Counseling and Family Services, we provide a safe and supportive environment to help you navigate these challenges, process your emotions, and begin the journey toward healing.
What Are Trauma and Grief?
Trauma results from experiences that overwhelm your ability to cope, such as abuse, accidents, or sudden life changes. Grief, on the other hand, is a natural response to loss, whether it’s the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or even a sense of identity.
​
“Both trauma and grief can manifest emotionally, physically, and mentally. Symptoms may include sadness, anger, guilt, flashbacks, difficulty sleeping, or a sense of numbness. These feelings are valid, and healing is possible with the right support.
