Remembering them - Supporting you

About

You don't have to figure out how to solve all your problems right now.  Just figure out what you can do to feel better in this moment.

Karen Salmansohn

Firstly, I want to send my sincerest condolences that you have had to find me. I fully appreciate that grief is a very lonely personal journey that can make you feel all kinds of emotions, whilst also feeling numb and like you are not part of your world.

​

No matter how many people you have around you, a loss can be one of the loneliest journeys ever experienced.  Each person's experience of loss is personal and should be travelled in their own time and through their own individual emotions.

​

Having counselled many clients through their grief journeys and having had my own experience of infertility, baby loss and family bereavement, I understand the wide range of emotions you will experience through your own grief journey.  One day you will feel ok and the next you will feel at the bottom of a dark hole.  This rollercoaster is completely natural and to be expected - it's your body and mind's way of processing what has happened.

​

Sometimes by talking to someone who is outside your circle, you are able to express emotions and fears that you may not feel comfortable doing with your loved ones.  Counselling should be a space where you feel held, safe and unjudged, enabling you to open up and process your emotions.  I hope I am able to be that person who helps you through the fog and brings you in to a happier and lighter space.

Sometimes you just need to talk about something - not to get sympathy or help, but just to kill its power by allowing the truth of things to hit the air.
