Grief Counselling

Grieving is not about forgetting, but about building the strength to continue on

We refer to someone who loses a partner as a widow and someone who loses a parent as an orphan, but there is no specific term for someone who experiences the profound loss of a child. If your sadness feels unending, it’s completely understandable. We are here to provide bereavement counselling and help you navigate your next steps. If you have faced any of the following experiences, we offer grief support tailored to your needs:

- Ectopic or Molar Pregnancy

- Miscarriage

- Stillbirth

- Early Infant Death

- Abortion

- Termination for Medical Reasons

- Loss of a loved one during your pregnancy or postnatal period

- Loss of a parent that is impacting your journey to parenthood

This is a safe space where you can find comfort and hold your grief as you process the loss of a child.

Feeling like it 'shouldn't be this hard' is common, especially when dealing with bereavement counselling after the loss of a child. It’s normal to not want to be with anyone and to struggle with feelings of not being good enough, especially in the wake of an intense or traumatic birth experience. In these times, you need someone who will understand and provide the grief support you deserve.
