Coping with Bereavement
Few things are more challenging than learning to cope with grief, but you don’t have to go through this alone.
What is bereavement?
When you’re bereaved, it means you’ve lost someone or something important to you. For some people, the grief that comes with loss feels overwhelming, and can even lead to depression. Bereavement counselling can bring a sense of relief by helping you make sense of your feelings and giving you the tools to move forward.
How long does grief last?
Grieving is a deeply personal journey. There’s no right or wrong way to feel, and it may take months, or perhaps years, to come to terms with your loss. You might try to suppress painful emotions, but this could get in the way of the healing process. It’s important to allow yourself to grieve and acknowledge your feelings.
Talking about grief
If you’re struggling with grief, talking about your feelings with a trained professional could be the first step to coming to terms with your loss. We offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can work through complicated emotions. Our goal is to support you towards a place of acceptance.
