Bereavement Counselling
The death of a loved one is one of the most difficult experiences that we can face. The grief and the pain can be overwhelming and all-consuming, leading individuals feeling lost, isolated and unsure of how to cope.
I offer a safe and confidential space to focus on helping individuals to process their feelings and to develop coping strategies, to help you navigate the complexities of loss.
Pre-Bereavement Counselling
A specialised form of therapy designed to help individuals cope with the emotional turmoil that arises when a loved one, or the individual themself, is nearing the end of their life, whether due to terminal illness, age or other circumstances. Many individuals face complex emotions - this is known as anticiptory grief.
I offer a supportive space to navigate these challenging emotions before the loss occurs. I aim to equip individuals with coping strategies, facilatate open communication, and foster a sense of connection during a prodoundly difficult time.
