Grief and Bereavement
Losing someone important in your life can leave you feeling overwhelmed, and struggling to cope with very intense emotions and profound sadness. It's such a difficult time, and it can feel so lonely when you are comparing yourself to others around you who are just living their lives while yours feels like it has stopped still. It's especially hard when those around you are grieving too making it harder for you all to make space to support each other as you deal with your own grief.
​
But you don't have to navigate times like this alone, and getting help and support is so important when you are grieving. Counsellors can provide a warm, comforting, safe space for your grief, where you can express your feelings and process your emotions, concentrating on how the loss has affected you personally, and how to find a way to cope with life moving forward.

How can counselling help with Grief and Bereavement?
​
When you lose someone so important to you, they can be all you think about. And depending on the circumstances and the relationship, this can leave you with huge worries about how you might continue to live without that person in your life.
​
Working with a counsellor can help you to process the loss. I listen with empathy and understanding, providing validation for your feelings and worries, and normalising the intense emotions you are feeling. I can help you to understand the grieving process, the stages and the types of grief, and provide a safe outlet for feelings such as sadness, anger, guilt or relief. And for those with more complicated grief, we can work towards resolving the deeper issues, and help to identify and work through the triggers that exacerbate your grief.
When you lose someone, you don't just want to 'forget', so we work to find ways to integrate the loss into your life in a healthy way, allowing you to remember and honour your loved one while still living your life.
