Although counselling is unlikely to speed up the grieving process it can help ease the pain of grief. It also gives you the opportunity to talk through any emotional problems you may have or to just talk about the person you lost.

Counselling essentially helps people to adjust to a changed situation. According to The British Association of Counselling, “It gives the client an opportunity to explore, discover and clarify ways of living more satisfyingly and resourcefully.”

A great source for finding suitable counselling is via Cruse Bereavement Care which exists to promote the well-being of bereaved people and to enable anyone bereaved by death to understand their grief and cope with their loss. Services are free to bereaved people. The charity provides support and offers information, advice, education and training services.
