Living with Leslie: Life after 50
"If you don't heal what hurt you, you will continue to bleed on those who didn't cut you"
Leslie’s specialties include working with anticipatory grief, competitive grief, complicated grief and typical grief responses related to: elder care related transitions, chronic disease complications, divorce, loss of pet, and human loss. Should a client need psychotherapy Leslie will refer out to a qualified therapist.
Recognizing when you need help is one of the first steps toward a healthy grief response. If you have not returned to regular activity, if you do not enjoy things that previously gave you joy, if you find yourself sad for long periods of time resulting in loss of productivity, and your hygiene is suffering or if you recognize these in others, please seek help. Conversely, if you believe you have not grieved “appropriately” and feel guilty for resuming activities and living life, please reach out. Responses are individualistic and should not be assumed to be “normal” or “abnormal” without further discussion.

Perspective and a new narrative. Sunrise or Sunset? How you view and process can make all the difference
It isn’t “just a dog” or “just a cat”. The death of a pet is a true loss of a family member. People tend to dismiss grieving for an animal, but even with anticipatory grief, this loss can be difficult.
Feeling blue? Grief comes in waves and ebbs and flows. Grief leaves a hole in your heart which is omnipresent, but it can become smaller with time with healthy processing.
