What I help with
Grief and Loss
Grief is not a sign that something is wrong with you. It is a sign that something mattered.
Grief is one of the most universal human experiences and one of the least talked about. It does not only follow bereavement. It can come with the end of a relationship, a change in health, a lost future or anything that once mattered and is now gone. Whatever your loss looks like, you do not have to carry it alone. My guides below explore what grief is, why it moves the way it does, and how support can help.
Grief is not just bereavement
Grief follows any significant loss — a person, a relationship, a job, a future you expected to have, a version of yourself. It does not follow a timetable and it does not move in a straight line. It can arrive without warning months or years after the loss itself.
There is no correct way to grieve, and there is no point at which you should be over it. What other people expect of you and what you actually need are often very different things.
What I can help with
I work with people who are grieving a bereavement, a relationship breakdown, a diagnosis, or any other loss that has changed how things feel. Counselling gives you somewhere to bring the full weight of it, without having to manage how it lands on someone who loves you.
I will not try to move you through stages or offer a framework. I will listen to what the loss actually means to you, and work from there.
