Support after loss

Grief does not follow a neat timeline.

Grief counselling gives you space to talk about what has changed, what hurts and what you may be holding in for the sake of everyone else.

Grief can follow bereavement, separation, family changes, illness, major life transitions, the loss of an expected future or other experiences that leave you feeling changed.

Rachael provides warm phone and video counselling across Australia so you can speak honestly about loss from a private place where you feel safe.

Safe, non-emergency support

Counselling support, not crisis care.

Rachael’s counselling consultations are supportive, confidential, non-emergency conversations for general wellbeing guidance. They are not medical advice, diagnosis, psychology, psychiatry or emergency support.

If you are in immediate danger, call 000 or attend your nearest Emergency Department. For 24/7 crisis support in Australia, contact Lifeline on 13 11 14.

Who this page is for

Grief counselling may help when loss feels heavy or lonely.

You do not have to wait until you are coping badly to ask for support.

You feel pressure to be okay

Others may expect you to move on while you are still hurting, numb or overwhelmed.

Grief is affecting daily life

Sleep, motivation, concentration, relationships or routines may feel different after loss.

You need somewhere honest to talk

Counselling can give you space to say what you may not be able to say elsewhere.

What sessions can support

Grief counselling can support:

  • Bereavement, death of a loved one and anticipatory grief.
  • Relationship loss, separation, family change or estrangement.
  • Sadness, anger, guilt, numbness, regret and confusion.
  • Life transitions, identity changes and the loss of an expected future.
  • Gentle coping strategies, support planning and emotional expression.

How it works

What grief counselling may include

  • Talking about the loss and its personal meaning to you.
  • Allowing space for difficult emotions without pressure or judgement.
  • Exploring supports, routines and coping strategies that may help.
  • Finding gentle ways to keep moving while honouring what matters.
