Grief Therapy in Edina & Minneapolis, MN
Compassionate Care For Grieving Minnesotans
Grief can touch every part of your life, your heart, your relationships, and your everyday functioning. Grief has no expiration date, so whether your loss is recent or not, healing doesn’t have to happen alone. MN Mental Health Consulting provides individualized grief counseling for adults and adolescents in Edina, Minneapolis, and throughout Minnesota via telehealth.
Loss takes many forms: the death of a loved one or pet, the end of a relationship, or a major life transition. Our licensed clinicians understand that grief is not a one-size-fits-all experience and are here to support you with empathy, hope, and evidence-based care.
What Is Grief Therapy?
Grief therapy, or grief counseling, is a supportive, professionally guided form of counseling that helps you:
- Understand and process intense emotions
- Develop healthy coping strategies
- Honor your memories while regaining stability
- Make meaning of loss without rushing the process
While grief is a natural reaction to loss, complicated or prolonged grief can interfere with your overall well-being. A grief counselor provides a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can express what you’re feeling, explore your personal experience, and build tools to navigate grief in ways that feel authentic for you.
Who Can Benefit from Grief Counseling?
Grief counseling can help individuals at any stage of the grieving process:
- Adults who have lost a partner, family member, friend, or parent
- Teens struggling with loss and the emotional aftermath
- Individuals coping with other types of losses (changes to routine, roles, identity)
- Anyone experiencing complicated grief that impacts daily life
Across Minneapolis and Edina communities, many people delay seeking support because grief feels “too big,” private, or ongoing. However, many studies show that grief therapy provides significant reduction in your symptoms and improvement in functioning. In other words, a grief counselor supports you in building strength, overcoming grief, and finding more joy in life.

Frequently Asked Questions About Grief Counseling
How do grief therapy sessions usually work?
Therapy is a collaborative journey designed around your experience of loss. In your sessions, you may:
- Share memories, emotions, and thoughts about the loss
- Learn coping skills that fit your everyday life
- Explore how grief affects your relationships and identity
- Build meaning and hope while honoring your experience
Whether your grief stems from the loss of a person, pet, job, identity, health, or major life change, our grief therapists will help you unpack complex emotions with care and respect.
What is the difference between grief counseling and grief therapy?
Grief counseling and grief therapy are often used interchangeably. Counseling commonly focuses on support and coping, while therapy may address deeper or more complicated grief reactions with structured therapeutic techniques. The goal of both is healing and emotional integration.
When should I seek a grief therapist?
Consider reaching out if you feel stuck, overwhelmed, isolated, or if grief is making daily life hard to manage. Therapy can help at any stage of the journey.
Can grief therapy help with non-death losses?
Yes. Loss of relationships, health, jobs, roles, or major life transitions can all trigger grief that benefits from professional support.
