In the second episode of Season 2 of “Guide Through Grief,” Tom Van Ness and Season 1 guest Dr Ryan Stivers return to discuss where Tom’s grief journey stands today. Grief traps or “grief ambushes” are a constant reality for those grieving loved ones. It can be something as ordinary as a closet full of their clothes, or even their car, but the grief can come on strong and fast. Learning how to identify and react to grief traps has been an important part of Tom’s grief journey. Through this discussion with Dr Stivers, Tom will share how holidays, celebrations, and even anticipated plans take on different and multifaceted meanings when living with grief.
