Children and Loss

Children’s experience of loss is different than adults. Children do not process information the way that adults do. Furthermore, children may need to come to terms with the loss of a loved one over and over again as they move through the major milestones in their life.

Additionally, losing a child is particularly difficult for any adult. Children are supposed to outlive their parents, not the other way around. Grief over losing a child has it’s own set of issues that are unique from simply losing a grandparent, or someone of the older generation.

If you live in Center City Philadelphia and the surrounding regions, including the Main Line, Montgomery County, Bucks County, Chestery County, Cherry Hill and Southern New Jersey area and want to schedule an appointment for individual therapy, couples therapy, marriage counseling, grief counseling, family therapy or play therapy call (267) 324-9564.
