Bereavement

People are never prepared when they lose a loved one or even know how they will react when the time comes. Many of us experience different emotions - guilt, anxiety, confusion, panic, anger, emptiness and extreme sadness.

Our experienced staff has an understanding of bereavement however we feel that it would be inappropriate to offer counselling due to our involvement with our clients.

However, we do offer our clients an advice book for bereavement which has been written by Dr. Bill Webster, a qualified bereavement specialist. We also hope that you find our useful links to relevant websites of some benefit and comfort.
