There is no correct way to grieve or to heal from a loss, but the grieving process is to be deeply respected. Grief is a multi-dimensional and sacred process that seeks healing from a loss. When we bury our grief, leave it unattended, it goes underground and can affect our lives in many unpredictable ways.

A sample shadow mapping session with psychotherapist, Larry Levi.

Choosing a therapist is not like selecting a good dentist or medical specialist. You may spend only a few hours with your dentist on an annual basis, and even less time with a medical specialist, but you are going to be spending many hours interacting with your psychotherapist. Your relationship with your therapist is central to the growth and healing process.
