Bereavement Counselling in Ranelagh
If you’re someone who looks like you’re coping on the outside, but inside feels overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected, this might be for you.
Many of the people who reach out to me say some version of the same thing: “I’m holding everything together, but it’s getting harder. I don’t really know what I need, just that something isn’t working anymore.” You might be putting others first, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling unsure of what you think or feel.
On the outside, you may seem “fine,” but inside, you’re carrying more than you know how to manage.

It is hard to describe what psychotherapy is really like. One of us, Jonathan Shedler describes it well.
"We are changing life patterns. There is no path from Point A to Point B that does not traverse the unknown
Real transformation occurs when patient and therapist can enter and embrace that unknown
Perhaps it is like ancient sailors setting out to sea in search of a new and distant land—but uncertain how far they might have to travel before they once again set foot on solid earth, or what they might find when they get there"
There is no substitute for meeting face to face though. And proceeding or not from there.

I work with adults with issues such as anxiety, stress, depression, bereavement, loss, trauma and relationship difficulties.
Do you feel overwhelmed, lost or stuck? Is there a sense that life could be better, that you are floundering instead of flourishing? Therapy offers an opportunity to slow down and reflect on your life space; a chance to explore and gain insight into unhelpful patterns of belief and behaviour which can cause distress and influence how you feel about yourself and the world. I am passionate about instilling hope by fostering greater connection and meaning in life which you may have lost sight of. Therapy has the potential to facilitate small yet meaningful changes, creating a powerful ripple effect on your mental health and wellbeing.

Both internships offered psychotherapeutic intervention using Art psychotherapy for service users presenting with trauma-related symptoms, attachment deficits, depression, anxiety, ADHD, separation and loss.
Young people experiencing emotional and behavioural disturbances can find it challenging to communicate or understand why they feel this way. The process of Child Art Psychotherapy can benefit in many ways as it is relational and fosters consistency and containment. The psychoanalytic and psychodynamic approach of Art Psychotherapy incorporates verbal and non-verbal communication to gain insight into the child's thoughts and beliefs systems. The focus of therapy is to understand the unconscious material that influences behaviour and emotions in order to foster change and promote healthy psychological functioning.

Bereavement Counsellors
How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.
When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.
Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.
What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
