Specialty of some counselors (5)
I believe the answer is:
grief
'specialty of some counselors' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for grief that I've seen before include "Sharp sorrow" , "Deep sadness" , "Heartbreak" , "Misery" , "Intense sorrow caused by loss of a loved one" .)
