Remembering Jaklin Viguen: A Life Well-Lived

Knowing When to Seek Professional Help
While your support is invaluable, it's also important to recognize when professional help might be needed. If a person's grief is overwhelming, prolonged, or interfering with their ability to function, you can gently suggest they talk to a grief counselor or therapist. Frame it as a sign of strength, not weakness. You could say, "There are professionals who specialize in helping people through this process, and it might be a helpful resource for you." This suggestion shows that you care about their long-term well-being and are thinking about all the ways they can find comfort and healing.
