Individuals experience multiple changes as a result of amputation. These changes
not only are physical in nature but also may include psychological, financial,
and comfort changes across the spectrum of an individual's life. It is important
to assess the emotional responses that an individual may experience postsurgery
and throughout the rehabilitation process. Grieving is a natural and normal
emotional response postamputation. Grief resolution is one of the primary areas
of focus in counseling amputees. This article examines various factors and
strategies used in the adaptation and recovery from amputation.
