Not everyone needs bereavement counselling. However, sometimes family, friends and those closest are unable to help in the process of mourning, maybe because they too are grieving or maybe you do not want to talk to someone you know about the feelings you have. Bereavement counselling offers the opportunity to explore, understand and work through feelings of grief. Often just reassurance is needed.
