        Hi, I have lost my oldest daughter recently. I lost her sister 6 years ago. They were both estranged from me. No one knows how my heart grieves for both of them. Parents are suppose to go first not our children

      I’m not a therapist, but I read what you wrote, and I wanted to reach out to ask if you ever found someone to talk to. I it’s been a couple years for you now, and I’m a widow for 6yrs now. Sometimes I don’t even know how to deal with things or the things you don’t want to feel any more. Now my question is where do people go from this point, because I’m trying to get that answer. If you want to talk reply with email

    I’ve had multiple family losses and need a therapist that specializes in grief and loss. I’m stuck. I’ve got a Medicare advantage plan through United Healthcare. Anyone out there?
