Mum’s death turns Tyler Posey into an online grief counsellor

Actor Tyler Posey has turned online grief counsellor for fans and followers after suffering the loss of his mother last year (15).
The Teen Wolf star’s mum lost her battle with breast cancer and Tyler turned to social media to cope with the grief – and now he’s helping others who are trying to come to terms with loss.
“It’s been rough,” he told U.S. news show Access Hollywood Live. “I didn’t really have anyone to look towards when this kind of thing happened; there was nobody that I knew that really was dealing with kind of thing. I wasn’t secretive about it, I just wasn’t open about my mum’s passing.
“Eventually I made this YouTube channel – it’s mostly to play songs – and I just opened up about my mum after a song, and it was really raw and I didn’t plan it and I just started talking.
“Now I just wanna help kids that are kinda going through the same thing, like a grief counselling kinda thing, and a lot of kids respected it and looked up to it… I’m still figuring it out… I just wanna be as real as possible.”
