Jo Goodwin-Worton
Counsellor in Stafford

When we experience a loss or bereavement the associated grief can feel overwhelming at first. It is a complex emotional process which continuously evolves over time. Grief is a deeply personal experience. There is definitely no right or wrong way to grieve and there is certainly no 'one-size-fits-all' approach, everyone is different. In my role as a Grief, Loss, and Bereavement Counsellor, my primary focus is on offering compassionate, personal, and meaningful support in a space which is personal to you, confidential and safe.

Having had first-hand experience of grief myself I know that I cannot understand completely what you are going through as it's your personal experience, however, I can certainly relate to all of the complex emotions at such a difficult time.
