Grief doesn’t always look like sadness. Sometimes, it looks like anger—raw, consuming, and impossible to ignore. Maybe you’re furious at the person who died for the choices they made (or didn’t make). Maybe you’re overwhelmed by blame—directed at doctors, family, the world, yourself. Maybe you know, logically, that anger won’t change what happened, but that doesn’t stop it from burning through you.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Anger is a natural, valid part of grief, but it can also be one of the hardest emotions to carry. In this session, grief therapist and What’s Your Grief co-founder Litsa Williams will explore why anger is such a common but complicated part of loss, how to sit with it without letting it take over, and what it really means to move toward forgiveness—even if that has always felt impossible.
We’ll talk about:
How to process and manage grief-related anger.
What to do when blame is eating at you—whether toward yourself, others, or the person who died.
Why forgiveness isn’t about forgetting or excusing, and how to think about it in a way that feels accessible.
