Grief
Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Grief can affect you emotionally, mentally, physically, and relationally, and it does not always move in neat or predictable stages. You may feel sadness, numbness, anger, guilt, disbelief, loneliness, or a sense that part of your world no longer makes sense. My approach is warm, gentle, and respectful of the individuality of grief. I offer a space where you can process your loss at your own pace and make sense of complex feelings without pressure.

Grief
Dr Grenville Major
Therapist, MBchB, MRCpsych, MSc psychological therapies
Grief is probably the most painful emotional experience we have as humans. Assuming we live long enough we all come to experience the pain of loss. At times it can feel like its just too much to bear. Getting past grief is something a therapist can help you with. I would like to meet with you to see what can be done to help you. This will enable us to get to know each other and see if we can work together. It’s important for you to work with someone you trust and feel safe with.

Grief
Delphine Marina Psychotherapy and Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, Diploma Soul Centred Psychotherapy; MA(R.es) Cultural Studies; GradDip IT & Politics; BA(Hons)Human
Grief is not just a response to death—it can arise after the loss of a relationship, health, identity, future dreams, or any part of life that held meaning. It may come in waves, or feel like a heavy fog that lingers longer than expected. In a world that often rushes healing, your grief deserves time, space, and compassion.
In therapy, we honour your loss without needing to fix or minimise it. We explore what the loss meant to you, how it’s shaped your inner world, and what it’s asking of you now. Together, we make space for sorrow, memory, love, and the slow return to meaning and wholeness.

Grief
Dr Paul Garden
Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
Loss and grief can take many forms including bereavement, job loss and relationship breakdown. These experiences are often devastating, and impact each person differently, leading to a cascade of difficult emotions overwhelming you all at once. I specialise in supporting you to navigate these incredibly difficult moments in life, with a view to recovering and rebuilding.

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.

Bristol has a strong progressive and creative culture, and its therapy community reflects this — with high demand for therapists who specialise in LGBTQ+ identity, non-traditional relationship structures, eco-anxiety, and social-justice-informed approaches to mental health. The city has a significant student population across the University of Bristol and UWE Bristol, and therapists addressing academic pressure and young adult transitions are well represented. Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust provides public mental health services, with a private practice community concentrated in Clifton, Cotham, and Stokes Croft. Bristol's history of race-related civic tensions — including the 2020 removal of the Colston statue — has made racial identity and community healing ongoing themes in the city's therapy culture.
