Loss or Grief
Vicky Mould
Counsellor/Therapist, Accredited Professional Registrant (PNCPS Acc.)
Are you struggling with feelings of loss, grief and loneliness after the death of a family member or friend? I have been a bereavement professional since 2008 - initially as a trained volunteer for Cruse Bereavement Care, providing one-to-one support and client assessments. I can offer a safe and supportive environment to explore your sense of personal loss, express your feelings and emotions, reflect on the relationship you had together (or hoped for), share or create memories and find your sense of coping. I can support you with recent or past loss, including circumstances such as bereavement through sudden death or suicide, loss to Cancer or Covid, experiencing multiple losses, being a bereaved carer, parent or sibling loss and partner or child loss. I have also received specialist training in baby loss, including the sensitive issues surrounding miscarriage, stillbirth, neonatal loss and sudden infant loss. If you'd like to explore bereavement counselling together, please get in touch with me to arrange a low-cost consultation.

Feeling loss, feeling grief is one of the hardest things we have to navigate in life. Feeling the stark presence of someone´s absence; and at worst it is everywhere you turn. I can bring a torch for you into these darkest of all spaces and help your find your precarious way through. It takes time; and I have all the patience in the world.

Counsellor/Therapist, BA MA Relational Psychotherapist/ Birkbeck College - Psychodynamic Counsellor
There have been instances when clients have brought their grief to therapy that was causing them major pain and in such instances, these emotions can morph into quite overwhelming situations. The supportive and safe environment my relational psychotherapy practice offers can be effective in reducing such unrelenting feelings. With the correct sort of professional therapy available in my private practice and given the right amount of time, my clients recover from their specific feelings of loss and successfully adjusted to their next phase of life.
Naturally, each client’s experience with grief is equally unique and complex, as well as being personal. Grief may cover such aspects as the demise of a loved one or friend, or it could involve a life changing circumstance, such as a relational break-up, or even a job loss. The client’s culture, personality and past life-experiences may all affect their particular grieving process.
With my relational psychotherapy, I do my utmost to tailor each therapy programme to specifically meet each client’s particular needs. In many instances, one useful aim of my therapy service is to contribute to the maintenance and enhancement of healthy connections with client’s circle of family and friends. Equally, many clients may find catharsis while talking about both their current and lost loved ones. Reflection on positive memories may strengthen client’s bond with the lost person.
This reaffirmation of the client’s bond may effectively reduce any possible “sting” from the loss felt. That said, every effort is taken by me to balance all attachments within therapy. In complicated grief, a client may feel hopeless and desire to join the lost loved one.
Another common goal with my relational psychotherapy is to facilitate the listening process. There are occasions when society may stigmatize the client for grieving in a certain way. However, my therapy approach is to assist the client to express their feelings without any form of judgment.

Loss and Grief are part and parcel of the human condition, personal and collective. However, when they come knocking our plans and expectations of a ‘normal’ life can go out of the window. How can we learn to be with this difficult guest? Francis Weller writes: “Grief is more than an emotion; it is also a faculty of being human. It is a skill that must be developed, or we will find ourselves migrating to the margins of our lives in hopes of avoiding the inevitable entanglements with loss. It is through the rites of grief that we are ripened as human beings. Grief invites gravity and depth into our world. We possess the profound capacity to metabolize sorrow into something medicinal for our soul and the soul of the community”. This requires that we are acknowledged and held, just as we hold and acknowledge those who we have lost.
