Grief is often described as a journey. This is inaccurate. Journeys have a beginning, middle and end. Grief doesn’t end. Grief has also been described as a process. This feels more accurate. Processes unfold over time. They grow, expand and can be a pathway. What if instead of only thinking about being saddled with grief we also thought about grief as a pathway to expanding who we are? We can do both. We can be more than one thing.

Grieving takes so much out of us.
Emotionally, mentally, even physically.
This is your reminder that it’s okay to pour something back into you, too.
Small moments of rest, joy, or movement aren’t distractions. They’re how we keep going.
What helps you refill your cup when grief drains it?

Let’s be real.. being a therapist is meaningful work, and it can also be deeply exhausting.
Especially when you’re walking around with everyone’s pain still sitting on your chest.
One small shift that’s helped me and other therapists I’ve mentored and supervised:
Move from empathy to compassion.
You don’t have to carry your clients’ pain to care deeply.
Just sit with them in it.
This shift can seriously lighten the emotional load.
If that resonates, send it to a fellow therapist who might need the reminder.

In grief therapy, the healing process doesn’t always involve adding more knowledge.
It can also be about gently letting go of the unhelpful beliefs we’ve picked up.
Like the idea that grief is linear.
That time heals all wounds.
That it’s something to “get over.”
I can tell you this:
You don’t need to follow a timeline.
You don’t need to move on.
You just need space to feel what’s true for you.

Grief doesn’t just show up after death. It lives in endings, changes, and even joyful milestones that mark a shift in who we are or what we love. This post will change how you see it.

Self-care in grief isn’t about fixing yourself.
It’s about giving yourself tiny moments of peace in the middle of the pain.
Space to breathe. To feel. To just be.
Take a micro approach, rather than a macro approach.
What’s one small thing that helps you feel grounded right now?

Grief is weird. You can be cracking up one moment and crying the next.
You don’t have to pick one feeling.
You’re human. You can hold both.

Pain can feel overwhelming.
But it’s also a reminder of how deeply we loved—and still do.
That kind of love doesn’t disappear. It stays with us. Pain reminds us of what we value.
