2020 has been a year full of unprecedented losses: from social lives, to divorce, and even death; humanity as a whole has lost so many things and we have been tossed headfirst into various stages of grief. When it feels like you are being pummeled by the waves of grief, how do you get up and catch your breath? How do you move forward and not drown? In the third installment of my mental health series, Ashley Nollenberger LPC sits down with me to outline grief: what it looks like, how to push through it, and how to start healing. You are not alone and its okay to not be okay.
