Bereavement Counselling

Bereavement counseling, also known as grief counseling, is a form of psychotherapy that helps individuals cope with the emotional, physical, social, spiritual, and cognitive responses to loss. It offers a safe space to process grief and adapt to life after a loss.

I offer a safe space for adults and adolescents to explore their emotions, address challenges, and work towards healing and personal growth.

Bereavement support for children and young people

Bereavement support for children provides a safe, non-judgemental space where they can process the loss of a close relative or a beloved pet. It allows them to explore and express the difficult emotions that often accompany grief, helping them feel understood and supported. This compassionate approach also encourages children to celebrate the life of the person or pet they have lost, fostering healing and hope while honouring precious memories.

How it helps

Processing emotions: Counselors provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals to express and process their grief, which can include sadness, anger, confusion, and other complex emotions.

 

Understanding grief: They help individuals understand the different stages and complexities of grief, helping them to differentiate between normal grief reactions and potentially complicated grief.

 

Adapting to life after loss: Counselors assist individuals in adapting to life without the person they lost, helping them to find new ways to cope and find meaning in their lives.
