Hello, I'm Jess. I’m a licensed and qualified Grief Recovery Specialist and a volunteer bereavement counsellor for a leading UK charity. I also have Postgrad (Cert) in Psychodynamic Studies from the University of Oxford, where I focused on attachment theory and unconscious processes such as grief, loss, depression and anxiety.

Grief is the normal response to any type of loss or significant change, and it can feel incredibly lonely.

You’re not alone.

Grief can leave us feeling conflicting emotions. And anything from the darkest despair to depressed or mildly stuck, trying to make sense of what’s happened.

It can be immensely painful.

Unresolved grief can leave us feeling as if we’re ‘going through the motions’ of life without fully living...
