About Grief & Bereavement

Grief is a natural response to loss but can become complicated or prolonged grief disorder (PGD) when it significantly impairs functioning for more than 12 months. Therapists specializing in grief use evidence-based approaches including Complicated Grief Treatment (CGT), CBT, and meaning-centered therapy. Lyte Psychiatry can evaluate for and treat depression or anxiety that co-occurs with grief.

Grief & Bereavement is highly treatable with the right care. Magellan covers grief & bereavement treatment at Lyte Psychiatry under its mental health benefit.
