View profileComplicated Grief Therapy supports people whose grief remains intense, persistent and difficult to integrate into daily life. Grief has no fixed timeline, but therapy may help when the loss continues to dominate emotions, thoughts, relationships, sleep, work or identity. A person may feel stuck in longing, guilt, anger, disbelief, avoidance, emotional numbness or repeated memories of the death.
This approach can be relevant for people experiencing complicated grief, grief and loss, bereavement after a sudden or traumatic death, or grief that overlaps with depression, anxiety, guilt, trauma or isolation. The goal is not to forget the person who died or to force the bereaved person to “move on”. The aim is to reduce suffering, process the reality of the loss, and help the person carry the relationship in a way that allows life to continue.
Sessions usually begin by exploring the loss, the relationship with the deceased, the circumstances of the death, current symptoms, support systems and daily difficulties. Depending on the therapist’s training, the work may include psychoeducation about grief, emotional processing, grounding techniques, gradual work with avoided reminders, memory work, self-compassion, narrative exercises or practical steps toward rebuilding routines.
Complicated grief can sometimes overlap with trauma, PTSD, depression, sleep problems, family conflict or intense guilt. In these situations, therapy should be adapted carefully and may need to work alongside medical or psychiatric support. The pace matters: grief therapy should be structured, but it should not pressure the person to feel better before they are ready.
Complicated Grief Therapy does not replace emergency care or specialist psychiatric treatment. It can, however, offer a safe and professional space to process the loss, reduce avoidance and self-blame, restore emotional stability, and begin rebuilding life while keeping a meaningful connection to the person who died.
When the summer crowds leave Nice, some residents feel more isolated while others carry stress from busy jobs; both are common reasons to look into complicated grief therapy. Sessions alternate between working with the loss itself and rebuilding goals, relationships and activities for the future.
A session usually lasts 50 to 60 minutes, weekly or every two weeks, in person in Nice with therapists who receive clients there, or online by secure video. In France, sessions with psychologists and psychotherapists are mostly paid directly; under the “Mon soutien psy” scheme, a limited number of sessions with participating psychologists can be partly reimbursed.

The therapy page also shows which therapists on MIT currently offer this approach.
A first session usually focuses on understanding what brings you to therapy, what you want to change, and whether the therapist’s style feels like a good fit.
You do not need to prepare anything perfect in advance. It is normal to start with questions, uncertainty, or mixed feelings.
This depends on your goals, the complexity of what you are dealing with, and how structured the approach is. Some people use this therapy for short-term focused work, while others stay longer for deeper change.
Availability depends on the therapist. On MIT, you can check the therapist cards and profile pages to see whether online sessions are offered.
Fees vary by therapist. When no live therapist prices are available yet, the usual range for this therapy is around €80–€140 per session.
Start by reading the therapist’s profile, experience, languages, online/in-person availability, and approach. Then check whether the person works with the kind of issue you want help with.
A good fit is often about both expertise and how safe, understood, and comfortable you feel with the therapist.

Psychiatrists are medical doctors, and their consultations are covered by the Assurance Maladie when you follow the coordinated care pathway. Sessions with psychologists and psychotherapists are mostly paid directly. Under the “Mon soutien psy” scheme, a limited number of sessions with participating psychologists can be partly reimbursed, and many mutuelles or expat insurances refund part of private sessions: check your contract. Therapists give you an invoice you can submit.
Fees are set by each therapist and displayed on their profile. The indicative ranges shown on this site are around €80 to €180 per session for most individual approaches, €120 to €220 for couples or family sessions and €70 to €130 for coaching, career counselling or parenting support. A session usually lasts 50 to 60 minutes, weekly or every two weeks.
Therapy cannot respond to emergencies. If you or someone near you is in danger, call 112 (European emergency number) or 15 (SAMU, medical emergencies). For suicidal thoughts, the national prevention line 3114 is free and available 24/7.
Start with what matters most to you: the language, the topic you want to work on, the approach, in-person or online sessions and the fee, all shown on the profiles. If you would like help choosing, tell us what you need and we will suggest therapists. Your impression after the first session counts too.
