Post-Pandemic Mental Health: Why Grief Counselling Is More Important Than Ever
Did you know that an estimated 60% of people report lingering emotional challenges more than a year after the pandemic’s peak? In a world still grappling with loss, uncertainty and change, it’s clear that grief counselling has never been more vital.
1. A Safe Space to Process Loss
After months of isolation, cancelled farewells and interrupted mourning rituals, many have been left with unresolved grief. Here at OLIP Therapy, we offer a compassionate environment where you can honour those you’ve lost. One client came to us burdened by guilt after they couldn’t attend a loved one’s funeral. Through gentle hypnotherapy techniques, we guided them to revisit cherished memories and release unspoken words, helping them to find closure and peace.
2. Rebuilding Emotional Resilience
The pandemic tested everyone’s mental strength, leaving people feeling brittle and fatigued. Grief counselling isn’t just about acknowledging sorrow; it’s about rediscovering your inner resources. In a recent session, a young professional struggling with work anxiety after losing a grandparent learned practical coping strategies. By combining mindfulness with targeted hypnotherapy suggestions, she regained focus and developed a daily routine that fortified her emotional wellbeing, enabling her to tackle challenges with renewed confidence.
3. Restoring Connection and Hope
Loneliness surged during lockdowns, and for many, grief has compounded that isolation. Our experienced, compassionate counsellors and practioners use evidence-based counselling, CBT and hypnotherapy to rekindle a sense of belonging. One gentleman in his sixties arrived feeling adrift after the death of his partner. Through grief counselling, he discovered he was not alone: sharing stories with others helped him realise that healing can be a communal journey. With ongoing hypnotherapy support, he now volunteers at his local community centre, channeling his experience into helping fellow bereaved members and restoring his own sense of purpose.
By focusing on post-pandemic mental health, our expert team in hypnotherapy and counselling tailors each session to your unique experience of loss. Whether you need to unearth buried emotions, build resilience or find renewed connection, our integrated approach - often combining grief counselling with bespoke hypnotherapy - delivers lasting transformation.
