<human>: Can you condense the text into a few key points?

A close friend of mine passed away six months ago after suffering from cancer for the last few years, leaving behind his long term girlfriend (who has become a close friend of mine). Without going into too much detail, she has always had personality issues which have needed resolving (mostly to do with compulsive lying/exaggeration and an almost casual vindictiveness), and now of course she has this to deal with as well.

At the moment the combination of her underlying issues with her understandably fraught emotions are causing her to push away people who have been close to her (though fortunately not me, yet). I think she needs to see a therapist, but she just shrugged it off by saying that a counsellor at the hospice had said it was "too soon" for her to go into therapy. Given my previous experiences with her, I don't entirely believe this, although I'm willing to be corrected. I'm also not actually sure whether the type of therapy she'd get would confront these other issues at all, but that's something to worry about later.
