Grief. It’s the club nobody wants to join, but once somebody you care about dies, you’re in the club no matter what.
It’s my mission to help you to discover that grief and love can walk together side by side, that we can talk about death and lean into all its sadness, and create something beautiful at the same time.
Each week, they’ll be a different activity to try. Each activity will be an introduction to how you can explore your grief in a creative way, as well as create a continuing bond with your loved one.

Don’t worry! Each of the activities is planned so that you can be as “creative” or “not-as-creative” as you wish! This is not about what you are creating, but more about giving you something to focus on while you give yourself space to grieve. And because the activity changes each week, you won’t be stuck with one thing for long!

Some of us find talking in groups a little intimidating. My aim is to create a friendly, safe, boundaried space where you can share your own unique story. How much you share is totally up to you - I will make sure you get a chance to speak, but only if you wish to do so. The activities will give you something to focus on, and the warm, inviting space will help you feel more at home.

I am a qualified counsellor and especially help people navigate loss and bereavement. This is not one-to-one therapy (or Art Therapy), but I am here to hold space, ensure boundaries are respected and also offer any insight from my experience and training where it feels appropriate.
