Supporting the Supporters

Know what to say, what to do and how to truly help someone grieving.

I guide friends, family members and carers with practical, trusted advice from what to say (and avoid) to connecting them with proven support like counselling, groups or resources.

With 25 years as a child bereavement psychotherapist and as founder of Grief Encounter, I’ve helped thousands of bereaved families. I lost both parents as a child so I understand the silence, the worry and the fear of getting it wrong.

• Clear, compassionate guidance on supporting grief
