How to Find Okay-ness in the Messiness of Grief

  1. How to Find Okay-ness in the Messiness of Grief Helen Bauer BSN RN CHPN 49:33

Social Worker Bridget Sumser works to provide support to patients and families in palliative and end-of-life care for over a decade, looking to unearth untended-to grief and sadness as a means to be more in touch with our lives.  In this meaningful conversation, Bridget discusses how grief shows up in all its many forms.  Grief can result from loss that’s not only related to death, but comes from life events like Divorce, Retirement, or other major life changes.  Many people experience disenfranchised grief and often compare losses in what Bridget calls “the Grief Olympics”.  In her work as Director of Practice at Mettle Health, Bridget works with a team to help clients navigate grief experiences so grievers know they’re not alone.
