Bereavement, grief, pre-bereavement and other life losses counselling
Navigate your bereavement, grief, loss and
pre-bereavement journey in a compassionate and understanding space.
About Me
Experienced Bereavement, Grief, Loss and Pre-bereavement Counsellor
At Lavender Path, I specialise in bereavement and grief counselling, including pre-bereavement and anticipatory grief support and I can also support you as you go through other life losses like redundancy or pet loss.
I offer tailored, compassionate care for individuals navigating loss or preparing for it.
My experience is both personal and professional. Having faced several significant bereavements myself, I bring deep empathy and understanding to my work. Professionally, I have supported many clients through both pre-bereavement and bereavement, always with a thoughtful, individualised approach.
I am trained in a variety of counselling modalities, a trained hypnotherapist and certified in online and telephone counselling. I also hold specialist training in pre-bereavement and loss, allowing me to meet clients wherever they are in their journey.
As an autistic-informed practitioner, I strive to make counselling accessible and inclusive. I have strong interpersonal skills and connect well with people from all walks of life, respecting each person's unique personality and needs.
Whether you are coping with the complex emotions of grief - loneliness, anxiety, anger, or depression - or facing the anticipatory grief of a loved one's decline, I am here to support you.
Grief is deeply personal, and no two journeys are the same. You do not have to walk this path alone. I am committed to being by your side, offering empathetic guidance at a pace that feels right for you. Your healing is my priority.
I can support you to find your path through grief, loss and pre-bereavement - with empathy, warmth, and care.
