Listen "Your Feelings Are Still Valid. Just Take Time to Work Through Them"
Episode Synopsis
Clarke McBee is a Licensed Professional Counselor and the Director of Community Relations at Home Instead Senior Care. In this podcast episode, she shares why someone should consider hospice care, how people can best navigate anticipatory grief, and why certain strong emotions (like anger) come up during the grieving process. Key Takeaways: How did Clarke get into this field of work? What is the difference between working with people in anticipatory grief vs. post-death grief? Susan had a very tough time when she was in the anticipatory grief stage. Susan is grateful she had a hospice team because they made recommendations so that Paul could still be a part of their daughter's life during her big milestones. Is grief different between people who know when a loved one is going to pass vs. if they had someone pass very suddenly? There is no right or wrong way to grieve. Susan's daughter said that the father she knew, died a long time ago. This statement rang true, but it punched Susan right in the gut. Where does anger come from when you experience grief? What advice does Clarke have for someone who is in anticipatory grief?
