Janet Reed

I can work with you to explore and understand bereavement, grief and loss. There are also many life events which are linked to loss such as divorce, separation, personal injury and chronic illness, work issues, retirement, pregnancy and fertility issues, miscarriage, children leaving home and experiencing the menopause. We can explore together the associated experiences of sadness, anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, low confidence and low mood.

I offer you a safe space for you to talk about the feelings you are experiencing. Grief and loss (of all types)  can feel like a very lonely place, and it is often difficult to talk to family and friends for fear of upsetting them, but the need to talk over and make sense of your emotions is very important in the grieving process. I can help you understand how the process of grief works and how you will be affected. I cannot solve your problems for you as you will understand, but I can offer you the time to talk about your loss and how it is affecting you and how you are coping. I will help you to understand what you are going through and to think about some strategies for coping. 

I offer an initial free 30 minute, no obligation session for you to see if you think you might feel comfortable working with me, so please feel to get in touch. I offer sessions face to face, by telephone and online.

I charge a reduced hourly rate of £35 per session to clients who are claiming benefits or students. Please note that this must be agreed prior to our first session, and I require proof from you such as a student card or letter, or email from the Department of Work and Pensions, in order for me to offer this reduced rate.
