Losing a loved one changes life in an instant, and the grief that follows can feel overwhelming. While grief is a natural response to loss, sometimes the pain is so heavy that it becomes difficult to cope with daily responsibilities or find meaning again. Grief counseling offers a supportive space to process emotions, work through loss, and take steps toward healing at your own pace.
At Marsh Landing Behavioral Group, our psychiatrists, psychologists, and counselors provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support for individuals and families coping with grief. With trusted testing programs, personalized therapy, and both in-person and telehealth options, we help patients in Jacksonville Beach find strength in the healing process.
What Is Grief Counseling?
Grief counseling is a type of therapy that helps people navigate the emotional, mental, and physical impact of loss. It is not about “getting over” a loved one but about learning how to live in a new reality while honoring the relationship. Common reasons for seeking grief counseling include:
- Death of a family member, friend, or pet
- Loss of a relationship through divorce or separation
- Major life changes such as illness, job loss, or relocation
- Complicated grief that persists beyond expected mourning

- Processing emotions such as sadness, anger, or guilt
- Learning coping strategies to manage day-to-day challenges
