The leaves are changing, temperatures are dropping, fall football is in full swing and you know Thanksgiving family time is just around the corner. Maybe you’re traveling home to see the family, or hosting a gathering at your place. Or perhaps you’re doing the marathon house-hop all in one day, or looking forward to your TV dinner alone because it’s easier than being with family.



Whatever your individual plans, the collective experience of holidays with family (or friends like family) is muddled and complex. And for many families, a “Will you pass the gravy” can quickly turn into “Why are you the way you are?!”



But there’s good there, right? Somewhere in between the buried pain, childhood wounds and unmet expectations is family – and with that a hope of love, acceptance, and belonging (even if in the tiniest portion). At the very least it’s the opportunity to not do it alone.

Spending time with family at Thanksgiving can be tricky. Learn how to navigate difficult relationships and enjoy your holiday this year.

Tragically, everyone faces hardships, breakups, death, and suffering. So, grieving is a necessary part of life. While everyone grieves differently, it always feels frightening and foreign; so it’s helpful to discuss a few common issues. As a professional counselor, pastor, and human who’s suffered a tragedy, I hope my insights will help you through your grieving. I’ll consider why we grieve and give personal stories of my own grief, the stages of grieving, and the pitfalls of healthy grieving.

Why do we grieve and what is the definition of grief? A therapist explains how to grieve well in the midst of loss and darkness.
