Relationship Mentor and Coach
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MNZAC
Our Grief and Loss Counseling for Couples is dedicated to supporting partners who are navigating the challenging journey of grief together. The loss of a loved one, a dream, or a significant life change can profoundly affect a relationship. We recognize that each partner may experience and process grief differently, which can create complex dynamics within the relationship. Our approach is compassionate and empathetic, offering a safe space for each individual to express their grief while also exploring its impact on the relationship. We focus on enhancing communication, understanding each other's grieving process, and providing mutual support. Our therapy aims to strengthen the bond between partners during this difficult time, helping them to find a path forward together with renewed connection and hope for the future.

I have worked with many people from different cultures around grief & loss. Grief & loss is not limited to death, it is also a major component in dealing with chronic illness/pain. It also includes end of life care, which I have supported terminal patients & their loved ones through.

Psychologist, Psychologist-BA, BPsycSc (Hons), GradDipProfPsych
In the realm of grief and loss, it is essential to understand that these experiences are multi-layered and complex. One must recognise that grief and loss often maintain their significant impact over time, meaning the ‘size’ of the loss remains ‘big’ thus, the process of healing through grief entails growing around that loss. Clients are provided with the tools and support to navigate their intricate emotions and the challenges that accompany bereavement and loss. Through the application of evidence-based practice (schema therapy methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic approaches, attachment approaches), fostering a healthy safe therapeutic alliance and tailoring interventions to each client’s unique needs, clients are guided in working through their grief and adjusting to their loss, ultimately fostering emotional healing and resilience. Be it coping with the loss of a loved one, managing life transitions, or addressing other forms of grief, the goal remains consistent: to steer clients towards a path of acceptance and a positive reconnection with life.

We may each have our personal experience of loss though there are many similarities to how we deal with this. As time progresses you will need to balance your experience of grief more with things necessary to continue living your life.

Our modern Western culture does us few favours when it comes to loss and grief, and many of us have never been supported to understand the importance of metabolising and processing our losses and allowing our grief to have the space and time it needs.
