Everything You Need to Overcome Grief and Loss  

 

During a disaster or large-scale emergency event, some people may suffer multiple losses. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, you may be unable to physically be with a loved one during their passing or to grieve in-person with family and friends. Other forms of loss include job loss or unemployment, loss or reduction in support services, or other lifestyle and relationship changes. These losses can occur simultaneously, prolonging or complicating the grieving process and delaying a person's ability to recover.

 

We know how you feel.  We are here for YOU.

 

Trustworthy Content

 

There are over 100 hours of content within the Grief and Loss Centers of America platform. All content was developed by licensed, trained, and experienced psychologists, clinical social workers (LCSW/LMSW), board licensed professional counselors (LCPC) and certified peer support specialists (CPRS). 

The platform is evidence-based, culturally responsive and trauma responsive. 

 

Customized Experience

 

Grief and loss is not "one size fits all". Because our experiences are as unique as our fingerprints, you start the process with an assessment that allows you to document your experience with grief. A member-specific, personalized Pathway to Peace Plan will automatically generate in the platform upon completion of the assessment. The plan provides a customized experience by providing you with recommendations for activities and resources that are in the platform. These suggestions are based on your assessment and includes hyperlinks to provide ease of access while navigating the platform.  

The Energy Model of Cumulative Grief

By The Grief and Loss Centers of America

 


The foundation of the Energy Model of Cumulative Grief is that grief is a form of energy. When we are experiencing grief and loss, there is an energy that we produce. Energy cannot be destroyed - it can only be redirected.
 
Grief is a human experience that everyone will encounter at some point in their lives. The more we know about our energy and how to redirect it, the easier our journey will be.  The interventions described in this model will help you along your journey and will allow you to redirect your energy to produce something purposeful in your life.

 

The Grief and Loss Centers of America mobile application teaches people how to direct their grief and loss energy through culturally responsive, evidenced based practices right through their smart devices providing resources at their fingertips.
