Grief Tending

Grief tending is the practice of acknowledging and nurturing one's feelings of grief in a supportive and intentional way. It involves allowing oneself to fully experience emotions associated with loss, rather than suppressing them. This process is important as it promotes healing, helps individuals process their feelings, and fosters resilience in the face of life's challenges. Embracing grief can ultimately lead to a deeper understanding of oneself and stronger connections with others.

Your grief is welcome here...

My Journey with Grief

As well as holding space purely to focus on breathwork, I do often use breathwork techniques within my counselling sessions with clients, as and when appropriate.

​

Whether this is teaching clients breathwork techniques they can use to support themselves outside of sessions, or taking the time to breathe together in our sessions to ground and soothe.

 

Breathwork has been recognised by many leading trauma experts as an effective tool to integrate into the healing of  trauma.

 

The mind-body connection is a powerful one, and whilst we can explore many issues from a  mind perspective during counselling, it is becoming increasingly recognised that our  bodies play a big part in that healing too.

​

If you're interested in working with both the mind and body then this can be discussed during our initial session.
