Seven Stages of Grief in Order

Understanding the 7 stages of grief can help individuals make sense of overwhelming emotions and find support during painful transitions. Mental health care encourages gentle guidance through shock, denial, anger, bargaining, depression, testing and acceptance. Each stage affects people differently, but compassionate counseling coping strategies and emotional validation can make the healing journey more manageable. Recognizing these stages empowers individuals to move through loss with patience, resilience and a greater sense of inner stability.
