Having experienced significant personal loss, I understand how grief can reshape our lives, relationships and sense of identity. I offer confidential one-to-one support to people navigating bereavement and loss, providing a space to talk openly, feel heard and explore practical ways to cope with life after loss.
I work with people experiencing many different forms of grief, including the loss of a parent, partner, spouse or other loved one; anticipatory grief; sudden and unexpected loss; and the impact of multiple losses. Grief is personal, and there is no single way to experience it or timeline to follow.
My approach is grounded in listening, understanding and practical support, without judgement or pressure to move on. Alongside individual sessions, I organise small gatherings for people affected by loss and bereavement, offering opportunities to connect with others who understand something of what they are going through.
One-to-one consultations are available online across the UK. I also host small gatherings in Wiltshire for people navigating loss and bereavement.
Grief may change how we see ourselves and the world around us, but we do not have to navigate those changes entirely alone. My aim is to offer a confidential, supportive space where you can talk about your loss, make sense of what you are experiencing and find your own way forward, while continuing to honour the person or people you have lost.
My qualifications and training include:
