Grief is primarily associated with the death of a loved one, whilst this is certainly true the term grief can be used more widely to capture any significant loss experienced in life. I work with clients to help them acknowledge the loss they have experienced and explore the emotional impact it has had and how this will shape their lives as they seek to move forwards and live their own lives.

With Gestalt therapy the five tasks of mourning, are supported: (1) To accept the reality of the loss, (2) To experience the pain of grief, (3) To adjust to the environment in which the deceased is missing, (4) To withdraw (some) emotional energy and reinvest it in another relationship, and (5) To find a place for and maintain a continuing bond with what we lose, however not in any specific order. A gestalt therapist supports the bereaved with an emphasis on a "loving authentic presence and communication that allows expression of EACH other’s personhood" so that feelings are honored and explored at the clients own pace. The here and now is emphasized and that is what leads to support/change

In my practice you will find a safe place to talk about and work through pain, and the feelings of sadness, confusion, guilt, shame and anger that often accompany the experience of grief and loss. Moving through grief and loss is your personal journey that takes time and is experienced uniquely from your own perspective. I provide therapy, counselling and and support for people who have lost a loved one such as a family member, friend or colleague whether through death or the ending of a relationship, those who have lost an important pet or animal companion or people who have experienced a loss that includes a loss of a job or personal identity.

Mourning a loss can include not only what we no longer have but what we never received as well. It takes time to recover from a loss and unfortunatley most of us do not give ourselves or others enough time. We want to hurry the process along. As a therapist I encourage my clients not to rush the process, but rather we sit together as they express their feelings of grief and loss. Gradually, in your own time you will begin to let go of these feelings and start to feel the burden of sadness lift.

I, like many of us, am no stranger to the feelings of grief and loss and I am aware of how deeply unique and personal these experiences can be. The way that I imagine being part of your journey through these moments is by holding your hand and walking through this unknown path together, while discovering new aspects and meanings of the self along the way. I will check in with you to ensure that we are walking this path on a pace that is most suitable for you, for there is no need to rush during this time. Contact me to schedule a free consultation to ensure we are a good fit.
