Online Bereavement Counselling & Grief Therapy — UK-wide

Grief doesn't follow a straight course.

After the initial shock, confusion, denial, and numbness, grief asks to be gently felt and moved through - wave after wave. You might feel like the world has continued moving while something in you has stopped or find yourself coping well in some moments and completely undone in others. Both are normal.
Grief lives both in the mind and body. Making sense of it means to listen to our thoughts, emotions, and sensations our body carries.
Loss is not only experienced through bereavement but can also come from ending a relationship, the loss of a pet, a job, or anything that held deep meaning in our lives.
I offer online bereavement and loss therapy in English and Portuguese, for adults across the UK and Portugal.

How I can help

How bereavement counselling can help

There's no right way to grieve, and no timeline you're meant to follow. What I offer is a space to process loss at your own pace, without pressure to be anywhere other than where you are.
Together we can:

    create space for grief without pressure

    process the complex mix of emotions that comes with loss

    make sense of your experience

    find ways to carry grief alongside the rest of your life

I work with many kinds of loss, including the death of a partner, parent, child, sibling or friend; pregnancy and baby loss; loss of a relationship or a way of life; and grief after suicide or sudden loss.

How I work

My training in this area

I've completed additional training in bereavement support, including with Cruse Bereavement Support — one of the UK's specialist bereavement charities.

My approach is gentle and led by you

Some sessions will be about talking through memories; some will be about what's happening now; some will be quiet. All of those are valid and helpful.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

  • Some experts say that it is important to wait a few months to start grief work. In my experience, although true in most cases, in some cases is not. Some people came straight after a bereavement seeking support to cope and process the initial shock and then return later to do the grief work. Others, decide to start months or years later. 

  • No. Grief doesn't expire, and unresolved loss often surfaces years after the event. It's a valid reason to seek support.

  • That's OK. Part of what therapy can do is help you name what you're carrying.
