Adults and children feel and show grief and loss differently; it is highly individualised and has many forms. Therefore, no two grieving pathways or people are the same, and the support needed varies greatly. Grief is a natural response to loss. Your experience of loss might be a relationship, job, pet, a way of life, the loss of a loved one, separation from family and friends, divorce, or children leaving home. Essentially, the more significant the loss, the more extreme the grief is likely to be. Our counselling in Coffs Harbour offers a pathway toward coming to terms with this often devastating emotional upheaval.
Grief and loss counselling does not aim to hurry the process; it intends to support you to grieve your loss in healthy ways and in your own time. I will help you to understand and cope with overwhelming emotions such as shock, anger, sadness, guilt, numbness, denial, and anxiety, all common feelings during the grieving process. These feelings can be overwhelming, and you might find it challenging to cope with your loss and believe you may never be happy again.
Counselling will offer you the support you need at the most vulnerable and challenging times in your life. It is a form of therapy that will help you to explore and process distressing and confusing feelings and thoughts.
If you are struggling more than usual, grief and loss counselling can help with your normal daily functioning, address intense emotions, and assist with healing. In addition, I will help you to understand the grieving process and assist you in constructing a new relationship with your loss, with healthy memories. Ultimately, grief and loss counselling facilitates a journey where you can cope, make healthy choices and move forward with your life.
