Why
Talking to someone who understands this particular kind of grief and loss is very valuable.
Life is painful and hard to talk about sometimes.
Clearing the air and processing grief can set you free from the past and set you up for a hope-filled future.
You'll learn how to process the pain of grief.
Look forward to creating a more positive future.
How
Person-focused.
Strengths based approach.
Within the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy framework.
Helping you work on what's important to you today.
Coming to terms with what's happened on your journey toward being a parent is hard.
It doesn't mean you have to be happy about it.
I believe every individual has unique gifts and talents.
So I use a strengths-based approach.
And I'm a big fan of positive psychology.

How counselling helps
1
Find freedom from your fertility triggers
So many situations in life trigger our grief. Social media pregnancy announcements, invites to baby showers and shopping trips all trigger grief and anger.
Find relief from the thoughtless comments from people at work and at home.
2
Process your Grief and Loss with someone who understands
Feel supported as you work through losses that aren't often recognised by society, or even your closest friends.
Your grief surrounding your losses is unique to you. Work through your anger, denial and acceptance in a safe space.
3
Heal damaged relationships
The grief journey around infertility and being childless can cause significant damage to relationships, friendships and family bonds.
Learn helpful ways of communicating, useful tools for decision making and moving forward in a way that aligns with your values.
