Grief and Loss Treatment in Houston
While grief is a universal human experience, prolonged grief disorder (PGD) — formerly called complicated grief — affects approximately 10% of bereaved individuals. It involves intense, persistent grief that impairs daily functioning beyond 12 months. Specialized grief therapy, including Complicated Grief Treatment (CGT) and CBT, is highly effective. Early support can prevent the development of major depression and PTSD.
