Bereavement Counselling is a lifeline when loss has left you feeling overwhelmed or numb

Losing that vital attachment of someone can be traumatic and can leave us feeling emotionally devastated, beyond belief - whether that be a loved one, family member, friend, or pet.

​

It is natural to go through a range of physical and emotional responses, to a significant change in our personal world.

​

Bereavement has and will impact on us all in different ways, and it's possible to experience many ranges of emotion.

How can I help as a Grief Counsellor?

Grief Counselling provides you with a safe, confidential space for you to feel, think, and express emotions, at your own pace. This non-judgmental approach will support you to be seen, heard and feel fully understood, which can be a great relief.

​

As a Grief Counsellor, I can help you learn coping tools, such as skills and techniques. This will include the Grief Process and the 5 Stages of Grief.

​

It is important to recognise that you are grieving the loss that you have experienced, even though some people may not understand your loss and tell you to get on with it.

​

As with all types of loss, finding a way to express your emotions is key to making the psychological adjustment needed and incorporating your loss into your life moving forward.

Other forms of Grief & Loss

Feelings of grief can also happen because of other types of loss or changes in circumstances. This can be triggered by any event that involves an identity-altering type of loss.

​

  • The end of a relationship / marriage or friendships

  • The loss of a job / financial loss

  • Moving away to a new location

  • A decline in our physical or mental health

  • Life changing illness or injury

​

Reaching out can take all your inner-strength and courage, but the benefits of doing so, can be huge in the long run...

The loss of Family Pets

The loss of a pet impacts everyone differently. Feelings of despair, loneliness and even depression can be overwhelming. There may also be a strong sense of guilt and self-doubt, particularly when a decision has been taken to euthanise or rehome a pet.

Grieving for a pet can be a very lonely experience. Often friends, family or colleagues don’t quite understand the pain and emotion that losing a pet can bring.
