Grief Counselling Services
Coping With Grief, Loss & BereavementNavigating loss can be a deeply personal and challenging journey. Our counsellors offer compassionate support during difficult times.
The death of a significant person can be a devastating loss. Many people feel unable to fully connect with the loss of a loved one and feel guilty about that. Often people wonder if they are even ‘going nuts’. Everyone experiences grief differently and there is no 'normal' or 'right' way to grieve.

Some of the natural emotions that people face following the loss of a loved one include feelings of:
- Loss - That feeling of abandonment or sudden loneliness
- Anger - How dare they leave now. Why have they left me?
- Shock - I was completely taken by surprise
- Disbelief - The utter impossibility of disbelieving that they are gone
- Denial - Still expecting the person to walk in at any moment
- Confusion - Feeling overwhelmed and confused by the situation
- Regret and Guilt - wishing we had said (or not said) something or done more
Grief can go on for many years, with anniversaries, significant dates and holidays being particularly difficult.
Many people describe the following symptoms of bereavement and loss, including ongoing or continuing sleep problems, numbness, bouts of depression, suicidal thoughts, fear of the future, shame and an inability to concentrate.
Our one-to-one counselling for bereavement and loss can support you through difficult times and beyond.
