May there be comfort in knowing that someone so special will never be forgotten.
One of Janine’s areas of special interest is offering Grief and Bereavement Counselling in Fourways Lonehill Sandton. Counselling can also be booked to occur online.
Understanding Your Unique Grief Journey
There is no one way that a person should grieve, the grieving process is a unique and personal journey. This journey that each person goes through and the way they express their grief depends on:
Individual Factors
- Their own life stage
- The type of relationship one has with the person who has passed away
- Cultural, religious, and individual believes
- Values and backgrounds
- Circumstance of the passing
The Reality of Grief
The truth is that grief does change one and one’s life.
How Grief Counselling Helps
Grief counselling helps to support healing and rebuilding around the loss in a warm, non-judgmental environment where you can:
- Explore your thoughts and feelings without pressure or judgment
- Ask questions that may be troubling you
- Process the changes that grief has brought to your life
- Find a new way forward that honors both your loss and your future
Specialized Therapeutic Approaches
Where needed, BWRT and Brain Spotting can be used to help process some of the pain of grief and any associated trauma with the passing of the loved one. These brain-based therapies can be particularly helpful when:
- Grief feels overwhelming or stuck
- There are traumatic circumstances surrounding the death
- Physical symptoms of grief are persistent
- Traditional talking through feelings isn’t providing relief
Creating a Safe Space
Grief counselling provides a supportive environment where your unique experience of loss is understood and respected, allowing you to navigate this difficult time at your own pace while building resilience for the journey ahead.
