  • We categorize grief with the loss of marriage, pregnancy or death of someone.

  • But there are some others too as much painful as divorce.

  • Erin facing the loss of graduation and couldn't meet clients during this pandemic.

  • Erin always advises patients that people suffering and grieving globally. People don't realize it.

  • We have to go to the mall picking up mask and sanitizer.

  • We losing freedom and so many things happening that we never imagined could happen.

  • If you have children like teenagers they are little edgy and irritated like others.

  • They lost graduation and studies during this COVID 19 and it's important to talk to them.

  • Children missing going to the mall and meeting friends.

  • Erin tries to be open to letting people share their experiences.

  • Inviting them from words like you are just 15 and how do you feel about this pandemic.

  • By sharing the experience we can learn a lot about people and their feelings.

  • Why people getting angry on social media?

  • Such a great question.

  • Erin lost a client and it's so hard for her to losing someone unexpectedly. 

  • She got really upset and it leads her to social media.

  • People want to reveal their feelings.

  • No one is around to listen to the world is so busy in itself.

  • People go to social media to complain about the things that they can't in real life.
