End of Life and Bereavement

Grief is not something to ‘get over’, but it can be shared and understood.

The death of someone close can be shattering. The loss often leaves you feeling disoriented, heartbroken, or simply numb. I work with clients who are navigating the deep pain, confusion, and isolation that grief so often brings, whether the loss was recent or happened long ago.

​

You might be experiencing:

• Intense sadness, disbelief, or emotional numbness

• Guilt or regret about things left unsaid or unresolved

• Anger or bitterness that feels taboo or hard to express

• Feeling alone, even when others are around

• A sense that friends and family don't fully understand, or say the wrong things

​

All of these emotions are valid. In bereavement counselling you don’t have to hide or minimise your grief. There is no pressure to “move on.” Instead I offer a space to gently explore what this loss means for you and to begin making sense of the complex feelings that come with it.

​

Facing Loss, Illness and the Unknown

I also work with clients who are facing the anticipatory grief of a terminal diagnosis, either their own or someone close to them. Together we make space for fear,  anger, sadness, and even moments of peace. This work is quiet and tender, but it can bring a sense of grounding and meaning in the midst of pain and uncertainty.

A Place to Be Held in Your Grief

Whether you’re seeking a few weeks of support or need longer-term space to explore deeper aspects of your loss, having counselling support can be hugely beneficial. Grief takes many forms, and you don’t have to carry it alone.
