Grief Counseling in Bloomfield Hills, MI

Grief is a natural response to loss, whether that loss stems from a loved one, the end of a friendship, or the uncertainty of a major life transition. While natural, the grieving process is incredibly difficult to navigate alone, and help is available for those who need it.

Grief counseling is an evidence-based approach to helping individuals navigate grief with compassionate guidance and expert support. During grief counseling, you can process your emotions, develop effective coping strategies to heal, and find new meaning as you move forward.

At Start My Wellness, we’re committed to helping Bloomfield Hills residents get the support they need to process these difficult feelings. We offer in-person sessions at our Ferndale clinic and flexible online appointments for residents across Michigan to ensure that everyone has access to the support they need, when they need it.

I received an affordable, thorough psychological assessment by Dr. Bloom. He was very helpful, knowledgeable and insightful. I very much appreciate the service he offers because full neuropsychological testing is expensive and nearly unobtainable for people with certain types of insurance. I paid out of pocket and it was worth every cent.

It's not normal for me to write reviews. The service that I received from the staff at Start my wellness, was absolutely amazing! The response and help from Rayven at the front desk was extremely helpful. She was able to walk through the process without making me feel rushed or pressured. She was knowledgable of the everything I need to be seen in a timely and professional manner. The treatment team was caring and warm. I didn't feel like "Just another patient", or embarrassed about my conditions. Thank you all for helping me.

I love talking with Laila. I feel really comfortable and she seems genuinely kind. I look forward to my appointments with my psychiatrist now thanks to her, which is something I never thought I would say.

Wonderful practice. Provide primarily virtual sessions which is preferred for me. Dr. Marashi is very knowledgable and helped me finally for the first time in my adult life nail down a combination of medications to help manage my PMDD and ADHD struggles. I could not have achieved everything I have in the past year without her support and knowledge. I recommend to everyone that struggles with their mental health.

Grief Counseling FAQs

HIDDEN - DO NOT DELETE
Can you do grief counseling online?
At Start My Wellness we offer online grief counseling for residents across Michigan. For residents of Bloomfield Hills, we offer in-person appointments at our Ferndale clinic with online or hybrid options depending on your schedule and flexibility.
What kind of therapy is best for grief?
Several types of therapy are effective in helping individuals process grief and learn coping strategies to manage it effectively, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Group Therapy. Each person responds differently to therapeutic treatments and your therapist or counselor will work with you to determine the most supportive option for you. If you’re deciding on options, call us today and we’ll be happy to answer any questions to see what the best fit for you is.
How long does grief counseling usually last?
Grief counseling is very dependent on individual needs and circumstances with an average range of 6-20 sessions for complete symptom remission and processing. Factors that impact how long grief counseling lasts include the severity of the loss, the presence of complicated grief, personal history, and available support systems. The purpose of counseling is to help you process loss, learn coping strategies to manage symptoms, and ensure you have the support you need going forward.
What can I do outside of therapy to manage my grief?

There are several ways you can process grief outside of therapy, through introspection, self-care, and remembrance.

  • Introspection: Journaling or mindfulness activities like meditation help you process your emotions neutrally, helping to manage complex emotions and gain insights on your thoughts and feelings.
  • Self-Care: Taking care of your physical and emotional needs.
  • Remembrance: Creating meaningful rituals help you honor your loved one and process your grief constructively, maintaining a sense of connection and purpose throughout the grieving process.
