During our lifetime, many of us will experience losing a loved one and this tremendous time of adjustment can be extremely difficult to navigate. Support from friends and family can be invaluable, but it may also be beneficial to seek professional support to help you cope with your loss and work through the myriad of feelings and emotions.

I provide a respectful and understanding bereavement counselling service for individuals and families, from my confidential therapy space in Bridgnorth or online/via telephone. I also offer advanced hypnotherapy and EMDR therapy, which can be effective modalities to help process grief and trauma.

Bereavement counselling offers a safe and empathic environment in which you can ‘offload’, express your hurt and sadness, be heard and understood. Therapy can help you process and ‘normalise’ your thoughts and feelings and gain useful coping strategies to aid your well-being at such a difficult time.

I am proud to work alongside Perry and Phillips Funeral Directors to provide various options of local bereavement support including, monthly group bereavement counselling sessions and weekly ‘supportive talks’ for those who have experienced loss.

Through Perry and Phillips, I provide ‘Support Talk’ which is a free of charge service for those who wish to access professional support via a confidential telephone chat. Also, I hold monthly group bereavement counselling sessions, again free of charge and open to anyone who may benefit from group therapy. This supportive space offers a safe environment in which to share thoughts, feelings, personal ways of coping or just simply listen to the professional support and guidance. Many people find these relaxing and informal sessions beneficial and a useful source of information and comfort.

Of course, group therapy sessions and supportive chats may not be for everyone. Should you prefer one-to-one therapy or private family bereavement counselling, please just get in touch.

Hopefully, these various options of support allow bereavement counselling to be accessible to all. Please click on the links to download details of the therapy options available at Perry & Phillips or view the short video of myself and John Adams discussing bereavement counselling and support.
