Speciaist counsellors dedicated to help those experiencing difficulty in bereavement.

To provide therapeutic counselling and psychotherapy to individuals who have experienced complicated grief as a result of traumatic loss and/or bereavement. Our work helps clients to re-engage with their lives and make plans for their future.

Why the community needs us
Our work with bereaved clients helps them to overcome particular difficulties they may experience following the death of a loved one. The death might have been traumatic in some way or may have been sudden, violent or involve the death of a child. Our work with clients can, in time, help them to adapt to their loss, participate more in family life and life in the community. GPs who refer their vulnerable patients have the security of knowing that their patients will receive professional care.

Our impact on the community
Our work helps clients to re-engage with their lives and make plans for their future. Our bereavement work with clients often helps other family members. It can lead to an understanding that different people respond differently to bereavement and this can lead to mutual support and understanding within the family. Many of our clients have thoughts and intentions of ending their lives and our work has been shown to alleviate these thoughts and plans. Many adjusting well to their new situation
