Bereavement

 Sadly, bereavement is something that we will all go through. It is a natural part of our human existence. However, the pain can feel insurmountable. You may feel  intense sadness, regret, guilt and anger. Added to this, you may be experiencing complications with family relationships, finances, the overwhelming admin that comes with a death. Maybe COVID impacted your grief and you weren't able to process what happened. The death may have brought up complicated feelings around your childhood.

Your grief may be presenting itself in physical ways, such as sleep issues or lack of motivation to exercise.

Bereavement counselling can be a place for you to tell the story of the loss, and retell it and retell it. Family and friends may have their own issues and you don't want to burden them.

Counselling can be a safe and non-judgemental place for you to explore your feelings around the bereavement. We can work together so you can gain an acceptance of what happened and integrate the loss into your life. We can find ways for you to maintain a healthy, continuing bond with the person who died.
