Welcome to A Grief Space

There's no right or wrong way to grieve - only your way.

Grief and Loss Counselling in a Confidential Setting

Hello I'm Yvonne a fully qualified and BACP registered counsellor offering grief and loss counselling in the UK.

My approach is informed by my work with Bereft Bereavement Support and Cruse Bereavement Support where I supported individuals through a wide range of emotional responses linked to bereavement, loss and significant life changes.

Some losses are not always visible from the outside. A friendship fading, a relationship ending, becoming a carer, losing a job, moving country, or not becoming the version of yourself you once imagined.

These experiences can bring a wide range of emotions and thoughts that are difficult to put into words. You may feel overwhelmed, numb or unsure of how to make sense of what you are experiencing. Counselling for grief and loss can offer a space to explore these feelings safely and without judgement.

Grief is not only about death. It can also be the mourning of a life, identity, future or deep connection that mattered profoundly. I recognise that grief and loss can show up differently for each person and that neurodivergent individuals may experience grief in unique ways including in relation to identity, relationships, belonging, overwhelm and everyday life.

I offer a confidential, supportive space for bereavement and grief counselling where you can explore what is happening for you during times of loss and change. Sessions are led in a way that feels right for you, focusing on what feels most important to you.

I work in line with the ethical framework of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and engage in regular professional supervision to support safe, ethical and reflective practice.

A Grief Notebook

A guided notebook for working through grief at your own pace.


This notebook offers structured prompts and reflective exercises to help you process your thoughts and emotions, and make sense of your experience after someone has died, and create space for what feels hard to hold.

Created alongside my work in practice, this notebook is designed for use alongside counselling or as a personal resource.

This notebook is entirely optional and not required to be purchased for counselling sessions with me.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need grief counselling?

Everyone grieves differently, counselling can be helpful if your grief feels overwhelming, stuck or isolating.

What if my loss was a long time ago?

There is no time limit on grief. Many people come to counselling long after a loss, when they feel ready, or when something in life brings loss back into their awareness.

What happens in the first session?

The first session is a space to get to know you and what you are going through. You do not need to prepare anything, and you can share as much or as little as feels comfortable for you.

What if I get upset in a session?

Grief can bring strong emotions and at A Grief Space you are welcome to bring whatever comes up for you.

Will you tell me what to do or give advice?

No. This is your space, and we will work at your pace, exploring what feels right for you.

Can I bring a friend or relative with me?

No. Sessions are one-to-one, providing a private and confidential space for you to talk openly. I understand it may feel daunting at first, especially if you have not attended counselling before but we can shape the work around what feels manageable for you.
