Little by little we process grief, and at some point, we laugh again, or we enjoy an event, or we even start to feel a little bit free. The result can be guilt, as if by recovering from grief we negate the love we felt for the person who is gone. Host Andy Dean and therapist Diane Wiltshire discuss guilt in the grieving process, as well as the fear that may come with loss.

One truism across humanity is that we will all experience grief at some point. It might be the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a radical change in our way of life, or the loss of a beloved pet. Sometimes grief is complicated by trauma, says Diane Wiltshire, LSW, primary therapist in the Women’s Program at Princeton House Behavioral Health. No matter what the cause, acceptance of the grief process, as difficult and different it might be for each of us, can help the healing process. Join host Andy Dean as he explores notion of “acceptance is the opposite of resistance.”

Understanding the power of familismo is a key to understanding how to best support Hispanic individuals who seek treatment for mental health issues. The idea that family comes before the individual can make treatment easier (the whole family will support you in recovery) or more difficult (a person may be hesitant to seek treatment because their illness will affect the whole family). Yuliza Avelar, LSW, who works with teens at Princeton House Behavioral Health, explains how cultural issues should be taken into account when working with Hispanic individuals.
