I am re-thinking my options in terms of therapy for ongoing grief and conmplicated grief.

I have attempted psychodynamic therapy for eight months and my heart is still hemorhagging from the grief. I have communicated this to the therpist but it seems she does not have the know-how as to how to help me. After shelling out all this money per week, one hundred seventy five per session, gasp, I am ready to explore other options.
This therapist bascially listened and also offered that I seek ouside support such as a relaxation class, spiritual feeding, etc.
I don't think she knows or is able to use HERSELF in the process of helping me through my grief.

I am just not sure what kind of therapy can help me move from a place of searing grief to a place of diluted grief.

Any ideas?

I am a deep-thinking person and need to experience and get in touch with my emotions, something I have told my current t numerous times; it seems it is not her natural inclination to keep brining me back to the somatic experience.

Any ideas as to what kind of therapy/therapist might be able to help with compicated unrelenting grief without wasting another eight months in unhelpful therapy?
thank you so much !

I would find a therapist who specializes in grief? That's a whole field, "grief therapy":
