Grief & Loss

We all experience loss in our lives. Change in itself always involves a loss. Loss can be physical such as the loss of property through misplacement, damage or theft. Loss can be relational such as the loss of a relationship through a breakup, separation or death. Loss may also be symbolic such as the loss of the status of who we once were (wife, friend, boss) or the person we had hoped to become. And on a greater scale, loss can be collective for example the loss we have all experienced as a result of the recent pandemic, or climate change.

Grief is our personal experience of the loss. And because we each experience grief differently it can leave us feeling isolated at the exact moment that we really need to be connected to others. 

When we grieve, we are not only asked to carry the grief for the immediate loss, but we are also invited to tend to other rivers of grief that come to the surface, unresolved grief, old woundings, the parts of ourselves we send away.

If you are experiencing loss and grief, no matter how small or large, we are here to support you to tend to your grief with reverence and compassion. Our counselling sessions, grief circles and retreats offer a sanctuary where your grief is welcomed and embraced, a space to make sense of your loss through sharing and reflection, a process to transform and heal through courage and love.
