The loss of a spouse is common in late life. Bereavement is a natural response to the death of a loved one, and symptoms such as crying and sorrow, anxiety and agitation, insomnia and loss of appetite frequently follow the loss.
Bereavement is not a mental disorder but if left unattended can have serious mental health and other health consequences. It is an important and well established risk factor for depression.
Counseling through Senior Choices Loss and Bereavement Program can help an older adult through the stages of grieving and prevent a period of depression utilizing either individual or group treatment. Our kind and compassion staff will assist in the process.
