Grief & Loss Therapy

About the service

Grief and loss can affect people in many different ways and are often experienced far beyond bereavement alone. Loss can include the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, family breakdown, changes in health, loss of identity, career changes, or major life transitions that leave you feeling unsettled, overwhelmed, or emotionally exhausted.

At Helia Therapy, support is available for adults navigating grief, loss, and significant life changes. Therapy provides a space to process emotions openly and honestly, without pressure, judgement, or expectations around how you “should” feel. Everyone experiences grief differently, and there is no right or wrong way to cope with loss. Grief can bring a wide range of emotional and physical responses, including sadness, anger, guilt, numbness, anxiety, loneliness, difficulty concentrating, or feeling disconnected from yourself and others.

Significant life changes can also impact confidence, identity, emotional stability, and your sense of direction or purpose. Therapy can help you better understand these responses while supporting you in adjusting to change and finding ways to move forward at a pace that feels manageable for you.

The therapeutic approach at Helia Therapy is person-centred, humanistic, and grounded in ethical, professional practice. Sessions offer a calm, confidential, and supportive environment where you can reflect on your experiences, explore difficult emotions, and develop healthier ways of coping during periods of uncertainty and change.

Whether your loss is recent or something you have carried for many years, therapy is focused on helping you process your experiences, strengthen emotional resilience, and feel more able to navigate life alongside grief, change, and uncertainty.
