Review of Adult Bereavement Service
21st December 2022


I was in a bad way dealing with the death of my Dad. The counselling allowed me to consider ways to help me in my journey of bereavement and were so gentle and person centred I was able to deal with my emotions on a day to day basis. The words used and ways of help explained by Amber for me were very considerate and made so much sense. I feel I will be able to try to manage my emotions better. I can’t thank her enough.

Suggested improvements
Nothing!

Review of Adult Bereavement Service
19th December 2022


Felt listened to and understood throughout even my irrational thoughts. Helped me to understand my thoughts and feelings and feel less alone and normal.

Suggested improvements
Could not have done any better although maybe a follow up call from counsellor every now and then. Nothing lengthy just 5-10 min call. After being supported during counselling feel might be helpful.
