Grief and Loss
Grief Counselling: Your Lifeboat Through Loss
Sadly, losing someone or something you love is an experience we all go through at some point in life. Grief is the response to loss that immensely impacts your life – and it’s not limited to death. Grief can be a loss of trust, loss of an imagined future, loss of health, loss of purpose or loss of safety. That’s where counselling and therapy , or more specifically, grief and loss counselling, comes in. It’s not about hitting fast-forward on your emotions, it’s more about finding your way through the storm at your rhythm. My grief and loss counselling is like having someone to help you steer through those waves.
There is no ~right way~ to grieve
Grief & Relationships Relationships are what make life worth living, it’s what we as humans need to survive and thrive. As we move through life, we develop strong connections with people (parents, friends, teachers, your first love), places (family home, where you proposed, your garden) and possessions (a photo, a note, family heirloom). We experience grief when these people or things are gone.
Unfortunately, there’s just no magic button you can press to get over grief, not even with an therapy. It comes out in different ways; some prefer public displays of emotion and sharing grief online. Others grieve silently, preferring solidarity. For some, grief is more easily managed, and for others, it takes time. Grief is personal, exhausting, and all-consuming – it is something we learn to carry as we continue to move through life. We know we have managed grief when we find we are again able to function day-to-day, whilst carrying the loss. Reminder: this does not mean you stop missing the person or don’t care about the loss experienced, it means we are no longer crippled by the pain.
Understanding Grief: It’s More Than Just Feeling Sad
