GRIEF AND LOSS COUNSELING AND THERAPY IN DUBAI
Grief and loss bring waves of emotional distress that can overwhelm even the strongest of people, especially after significant life events such as bereavement or a major transition. At the heart of these moments lies a journey that is deeply personal and unique. As a psychologist in Dubai experienced with grief, I offer compassionate support to those struggling with loss. Whether you’re dealing with grief in Dubai or elsewhere, I’m here to provide a safe space where you can express your emotions, reflect, and begin the journey toward healing. Remember that you are not alone in the midst of your grief. Together we can find ways to honour your loss and gently guide you towards peace and hope.
The experience of grief is as individual as the person going through it. It is characterised by a spectrum of feelings that can range from deep sadness to confusion, anger and even guilt. Recognizing and respecting these feelings is crucial to the healing process.
My approach to grief counseling is integrated and empathetic. It not only includes emotional support, but also helps you deal with the practical and existential issues that often arise at times of loss. Using a variety of therapeutic techniques, including narrative therapy and mindfulness practices, we will work together to process your grief, honour your memories and gradually regain a sense of purpose and meaning. The goal is not to “move on” from the loss – too simple an idea for such a profound experience – but to move forward with the loss and integrate it into your life in a way that allows you to heal and grow.
If you are seeking help and a compassionate ear in Dubai, please don’t hesitate to contact us for professional support and guidance on your journey to wellbeing.
