Loss or Grief
Rachel Bates
Registered Psychotherapist, M Phil - Counselling & Psychotherapy; M A Psychology
While loss may be the loss of a person, possession or a relationship, grief is a person's emotional response to the experience of loss. Mourning is the process of adapting to life after a loss and is influenced by a person's society, culture and religious belief. Different people experience grief differently but it is important that the process of grief is facilitated in order that grief could be grieved.

Loss or Grief
Benjamin Marr
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 or Grief
Mihaela Nicolaescu
Registered Psychotherapist
Grief is complex and everyone’s experience is unique, so having a safe space to explore those feelings is crucial for healing. I help you understand that whatever emotions you're feeling are normal and that there is no “right” way to grieve. This helps reduce self-criticism and guilt, common feelings during the grieving process. Grief therapy focuses not only on coping with the pain but also on rebuilding your life after the loss. This may involve creating new routines, rediscovering a sense of purpose, or exploring new ways of connecting with loved ones.

Loss or Grief
Mariana Amat
Psychologist
Grief takes many forms — from losing a loved one to facing unexpected life changes. I offer a gentle, reflective space to process these experiences, honoring both pain and resilience. The goal is not to “move on” but to integrate loss into life in a way that allows for meaning, connection, and growth.
