There is no right way to grieve, and no schedule for it
Whether your loss is recent or long ago, expected or sudden, a person or a place or a chapter of life — grief deserves room. This is a space where it doesn't have to be tidied up, hurried or explained.
In your own time.
Grief is love with nowhere to go
Grief shows up in waves: sadness, anger, numbness, relief, guilt about the relief, moments of forgetting and the jolt of remembering. All of it belongs.
There is no fixed set of stages you're supposed to pass through, and no deadline. We go at the pace of what's real for you.
Not only bereavement
We grieve more than deaths. The end of a relationship, a role, your health, a home, a country — these are real losses too. Having lived abroad for many years, I particularly understand grieving places as well as people, and the strange, unspoken grief of lives lived between worlds.
If your loss feels like one that others don't quite recognise, it will be recognised here.
How we work with grief
Mostly, by making room for it — with a steady, compassionate presence beside you. Sometimes nature and creativity help where words run out: walking among trees, working with our hands, marking what mattered. Always your choice, always your pace.
Where and how we'd work
Sessions are 50 minutes and cost £55, with concessions sometimes available. We can meet in person in a peaceful farm setting near Ash in East Kent (between Canterbury and Sandwich, easy to reach from Deal, Dover and Thanet), at Lighthouse43 in Folkestone, or online, wherever you are. It always starts with a free, no-pressure 20-minute call.
