The hidden weight of grief

Grief rarely unfolds neatly. It is not only about the loss of a loved one but also about what that loss means in the fabric of our lives. People are searching more than ever for grief psychotherapy, bereavement counselling online, and psychodynamic therapy UK because grief often demands more than reassurance. It requires depth, patience, and real understanding.
Why online psychotherapy helps
For many, sitting in their own home while talking about grief feels safer. Tears come more easily when you don’t have to step back out into a busy street afterwards. Online grief therapy also allows people who are housebound, caring for children, or living abroad to still receive consistent support.
A psychodynamic view of grief
Psychoanalytic writers have long explored how mourning is not a single event but a process of reworking our inner world. In psychodynamic therapy, grief is seen not only as a response to loss but also as a dialogue with memory, identity, and love.
Old losses may be reawakened when new ones occur.
Unspoken conflicts with the deceased can complicate mourning.
Grief can sometimes disguise itself as depression, anxiety, or even physical symptoms.
Online therapy creates a steady space where these complexities can be unfolded gently.

The ongoing relationship
Psychodynamic therapists often view grief as continuing a relationship in a different form. We do not “move on” so much as learn to live with absence. Online therapy supports this process, helping you find meaning without rushing the pace.
An invitation to begin
If grief has left you feeling stuck, heavy, or isolated, you do not need to carry it alone.
I offer grief psychotherapy online UK, drawing on psychodynamic principles to help you process loss in your own time. To begin, contact Archibald Psychotherapy.
