SUMMARY:Holding the Change: Grief and Ambiguous Loss After Brain Injury Session 3
DESCRIPTION:Holding the Change: Grief and Ambiguous Loss After Brain Injury\nGrief after a brain injury can be complex, ongoing, and difficult to name. There may be no clear ending, no shared language, and no simple path forward.\nThis three-part series explores the concept of\nambiguous loss and how it can show up in the lives of people living with traumatic or acquired brain injury.\nTogether, we’ll explore what it means to grieve changes in identity, abilities, relationships, and expectations while learning how to make sense of a reality that may feel unfamiliar or unresolved.\nSession 3: Carrying the Grief\nIn our final session, we’ll explore what it means to carry grief forward rather than waiting for it to completely resolve.\nFirst 30 Minutes: Understanding and Living With Grief\nWe’ll explore:\n\nGrief that does not fully resolve or “complete”\nBuilding a life with loss, rather than waiting to live after loss\nThe cyclical nature of grief\nTrigger moments such as holidays, milestones, anniversaries, and comparisons to life before the injury\n\nFinal 30 Minutes: Reflection & Practical Tools\nWe’ll make space for:\n\nQuestions and discussion\nReflection on personal experiences of grief\nA simple “Grief Plan” for navigating difficult days and trigger moments\n\nThis session offers a compassionate space to recognize that grief may not be something we simply “get over.” Instead, we can learn ways to carry it, make room for it, and continue building a meaningful life alongside it.\n
