“It is possible to live and grieve at the same time. It’s not easy, it’s not pretty, it’s not what we wanted... but it is possible”
- Dr Lucy Hone
How can I help you…?
As a Health & Wellbeing Coach specialising in loss and grief, my role is to support you in identifying and developing your own unique set of tools and strategies, as well as exploring how and when you might use them to your optimal advantage so that you are able to look after your own wellbeing as well as support those you love and care for during challenging times.
Coaching can be one-on-one, in a group, in-person or virtually via zoom. Get in touch to explore what might work for you at this time.
Check out the coaching I offer specifically for people working through the Coping With Loss Self Directed Courses here.
What coaching is NOT…
Coaching is not counselling or therapy. A coach does not work with “clinical” disorders. Grief is NOT usually a clinical disorder. Most people find their way. Emotions are not “clinical”. Relationships are not “clinical”. Only 10-15% develop Prolonged Grief Disorder (which IS clinical and needs to be referred to a Psychologist or Psychiatrist).
“People are hard wired to cope with loss, its in our DNA”
- Dr Denise Quinlan & Dr Lucy Hone
What’s with the jigsaw puzzle metaphor?
Your world has literally been smashed apart. It no longer looks or feels the same as it once did. And sadly, it never will. As you rebuild your life, you’ll come across those pieces of the jigsaw puzzle that now help you to navigate and make sense of your new world. Some pieces you might brush off and re-salvage, but in reality you’ll likely be working with new pieces, they may look similar yet appear a little different. They may also be totally new and look and feel completely alien. You might wonder how they fit in to this new puzzle you are forced to rebuild.
