How counselling can help to process feelings of grief
With 17 Years NHS experience and 5 years experience of working alongside people struggling with unresolved grief and loss, I offer a structured person centered approach looking through a trauma informed lens with every client that works with me. Feeling stuck, numb, heavy or just lost? Lets partner and help you to feel inspired, empowered and courageous. Whether you would prefer 1-1, working in a group,in person or online. We can partner together and create what you feel works for you. Edu-Therapy™ is about resolving the emotional pain from losses and heavy relationships that is the result of having tools that don't work anymore. Learning to reconnect our thoughts to our feelings so we can feel and live life more in the present moment rather than being stuck in the past or the future that will never be. Life coaching is about working on areas in life you feel stuck, lost or heavy and dont have the tools to navigate where you are in life that you feel work best for you. It helps you become action oriented and self accountable for moving forward in life. 5 years ago i decided to focus on supporting people's mental health. I trained to be a teen coach working 1-1 with students and young people in schools and face to face, this inspired me to work on myself and i gained several certifications in empowering people to move through grief and loss, while gaining my ACC (associate certified coach) through the ICF. Mixing these two modalities together has left me with a toolbox to partner and support people stuck in their lives emotionally spiritually or with a grieving heart. I have a real passion for supporting men who are looking to find a lighter path through life having been through my own journey and finding my own lightness through coaching and grief work. Outside of work I am a busy dad/G pops and love slacklining paddle boarding and am wanting to embrace campervan life with a dream of retiring on a converted bus.
Being a heart with ears to Allow clients the space to feel heard and explore how they can become a better version of themselves.
Watching people heal the wounds in their hearts and turn them into scars
After leaving school at 17 with no A-levels and no real direction, I took some time in life finding what i wanted to do as a profession.
17 years ago, I joined the Ambulance Service as an emergency care assistant and found a real love for supporting people with mental health problems but sadly I felt very poorly equipped with the tools to be able to help.
In 2020, I stumbled across a student coaching course which caught my eye with the slogan, “its easier to make strong children than it is to fix broken adults” that caught my attention. On a personal and professional level this resonated with me.
Since gaining my qualification, I have clocked up over 200 coaching hours with students and young adults on a 1-1 and group basis.
After enrolling in a course to help children with loss in 2019, this led me to train as an Advanced Grief Recovery Specialist, and have successfully helped many clients move through and beyond over 40 different types of loss that we may encounter in life.
Upon working with so many grieving people, I realised this was a passion close to my heart. I have since qualified as an Edu-Therapy Specialist, which allows me to offer a cognitive behavioural process for healing grieving hearts.
My clients choose to work with me based on what they feel is best for them. I only recommend working with me once we have had a chemistry session and the client feels i am the right support to guide them through this part of their journey
I can accommodate working online and have numerous clients who choose to work remotely with me.

After suffering the sudden & unexpected loss of my Sister and additionally during the few months prior to her death, losing 4 close friends again very suddenly ~ I found myself in a very low & sad place. Some months later I still found myself not being able to deal with a number of aspects pertaining to the deaths of my friends & especially that of my Sister – it was then I felt that I may need some Grief Counselling to help me. I asked friends who had, had various types of counselling in the past if they could recommend someone ~ but those recommended to me ~ upon reading their various websites etc., they just didn’t appear to have the fit I felt I was looking for ~ it was then that I decided to research for someone myself. That is when I came upon Paul Butler / Grief & Life Coach. Reading Paul’s Website there was an immediate impact & connection for me ~ that this person appeared ~ honest, humble and down to earth ~ he proffered alot about himself along with the types of Therapy he offered - I was impressed and made contact with him immediately. Within ~ a few sessions I could see that through his gentle and understanding manner Paul encouraged me to open up about matters that I hadn’t discussed or thought about in many, many years. In addition he helped me work through the causes of my deep anger at the aspects surrounding the death of my Sister, and I was able to move forward with only warm memories of her. As the sessions progressed I felt so much calmer & pleased that I had been able to deal with & basically “put to bed” many of the aspects that I needed to & some that I didn’t even realise that I needed to. This was all down to the way in which Paul conducted the sessions ~ he got to understand me very quickly and also dealt delicately with matters he knew I was having difficulty addressing and that I needed to deal with ~ he remained at ALL times, kind, understanding and at all times ~ gently encouraging me to come to the necessary outcomes needed ~ he never took the path of “ You must etc etc” ~ and I totally believe my recovery was 100% successful due to Paul’s attitude as to how he treats his patients. Paul to, has a wonderful sense of humour and is a very kind, understanding & approachable person, we often would veer off what we were chatting about and in time returned ~ all valuable to my recovery. I can highly recommend anyone who is seeking help, to make contact with Paul (Butler) ~ you most definitely will not regret it ~ furthermore, Paul accommodated me when I was unable to attend sessions at his office by seeing me at an alternate venue ~ which was more than helpful, from the ‘get-go’ I felt safe & comfortable with him ~ which is of prime importance in situations like this. Thank you Paul, for helping me through some tough issues which I thought were insurmountable, and to move forward feeling more like my old self. With warm regards, Shanon 21.02.2026

I found Tolis to have helped me a lot when I started my sessions with him. He seemed very kind, interested in finding out the cause of my ‘distress’, and always a good counsel. It’s very difficult to open myself up to others, but Tolis managed to build that trust that was needed for me to be honest with myself. I would highly recommend him, thank you!

Catherine was exceptional from start to finish. Her professionalism combined with her deep knowledge and understanding of her field made every session effortless and extremely comfortable. I have already recommended her to others and if I’m in need of any further sessions in the future, I would not hesitate to go back. 5 star
