Ambiguous Loss

This broad term covers types of loss connected to uncertainty such as when a loved one is missing or you have lost touch with someone. 

It also refers to situations where a loved one is physically still with you but not psychologically present, as in the case of a relative with Alzheimer's or a substance abuse disorder. 

It can also refer to the loss of hopes and dreams due to unforeseen setbacks or uncertain futures. 

Or experiencing a loss that others are not aware of such as a miscarriage.

If you find yourself in any one of these situations I can offer you support through the challenges you are experiencing.
