Trauma & Grief Counselling
A safe, trauma-informed space to process painful experiences and honour your loss
You may be feeling...
Overwhelmed by emotions you can't name or control
Numb, disconnected, or like you're watching your life from the outside
Anxious, on edge, or hyper-vigilant
Stuck in memories you can't escape
Grief that won't follow a 'normal' timeline
Guilt, shame, or self-blame
Exhausted from carrying it all alone
Uncertain whether what you experienced 'counts' as trauma
Like no one understands what you're going through
If any of this resonates, you're not alone. And you don't have to stay here.
Why trauma & grief support is different
Trauma and grief are not just “difficult emotions” — they can affect how the brain and body process safety, connection, and memory.
Trauma-informed support recognises that these experiences may shape how you feel, relate to others, and make sense of what has happened. Because of this, healing is not something that follows a fixed timeline or a set process.
Instead, the focus is on creating safety, moving at your pace, and making space for your experience in whatever form it takes.
Whether you are navigating the aftermath of abuse, trauma from the workplace, the sudden or anticipated loss of someone important to you, a life-changing diagnosis, or the impact of multiple losses over time, I offer a compassionate and steady space to support you through it.
We can't remove trauma and loss from our lives, but we can learn to grow around them. Nothing needs fixing, because nothing is broken.
Our trauma-informed approach
Safety First
Creating a physically and emotionally safe space is our priority. You're in control of what you share, when, and how much.
Your Choice, Your Pace
Healing doesn't follow a timeline. We move at a pace that feels right for you, without pressure or judgment.
Building on Strengths
You've already survived so much. We build on your resilience, strengths, and the coping strategies you already have.
How counselling can help
Process overwhelming emotions
Give words to feelings that have felt too big, too painful, or too complicated to name. Explore them safely without being consumed by them.
Make sense of your story
Trauma and grief can fragment memory and meaning. Together, we help you piece together what happened and what it means to you now.
Rebuild trust in yourself and others
Trauma and loss can shatter trust. We work to help you reconnect with your own instincts, boundaries, and capacity for connection.
Find a way to live alongside loss
Grief doesn't disappear, but it can soften. You can learn to carry it differently and honour what you've lost while still moving forward.
Reduce hypervigilance and anxiety
Learn grounding techniques and strategies to calm your nervous system and feel safer in your body and your life.
Reclaim hope and purpose
Even when it feels impossible, there is a path forward. Together, we work toward renewed meaning, balance, and hope.
