Bereavement

​

Are you feeling the loss of a family member, a loved one or a close friend? Do you feel as though your heart is breaking, do you feel that you will never be able to smile again or feel happy again?  

 

The death of a family member, friend or a pet can leave us feeling this way. We may feel isolated, we can feel that people are avoiding us, people are wanting us to ‘get over it’ and get on with things. However, bereavement is not something we just ‘get over’.

 

It takes time and it is an event that we learn to accommodate and adjust to in life, it is a life changing experience.

Grief and Loss

​

Do you have feelings of overwhelming sadness, reminiscing what once was, do you feel lost or confused?

 

When people think of grief and loss they often think of a loss caused by death.   However, grief and loss encompasses more than this. It can be the loss of a career, then end of a phase in one life (such as children becoming adults), loss of a house, loss of health, loss of physical ability, loss of friends, loss of community, feeling alone and isolated.

Trauma

​

Do you have times where you feel terrified or numb?  

 

Trauma can leave a person feeling terrified, unable to move, not being able trust anyone, with nightmares, being triggered by sight, sounds, smells, feeling frozen.
