Grief and Loss Counselling in Basingstoke
There is no right way to grieve.
​
Loss can turn your world upside down. Whether you are grieving a loved one, the end of a relationship, a change in your health, or another major life transition, grief touches every part of who you are.
​
It is normal for grief to feel messy, unpredictable, and overwhelming. Some days might feel unbearable, others numb. You might feel sadness, anger, guilt, or even moments of unexpected relief — all of these feelings are valid.
​
Grieving is not about “moving on,” it is about finding a way to carry your loss with you while continuing to live meaningfully. With my counselling in Basingstoke you will find a safe, understanding space to honour your grief and move through it in your own time.
What Grief and Loss Can Look Like
Grief can affect your mind, body, and heart in many ways, including:
​
-
Intense sadness, anger, guilt, or numbness
-
Struggling with sleep, appetite, or concentration
-
Feeling lost, disconnected, or purposeless
-
Longing for the way things used to be
-
Difficulty talking to others who do not understand
-
Changes in identity or sense of self after loss
​
There is no “wrong” way to grieve — whatever you are feeling is welcome here.
How Counselling Can Help
In counselling, you will find gentle support to process your loss, express your emotions, and begin to rebuild your sense of self after grief.
​
There is no pressure to be “over it” or to move faster than you are ready. Instead, we walk together through your grief, at your pace, with care and respect.
