We provide subsidised counselling and information for everyone experiencing grief and loss within the Western Bay of Plenty. We support vulnerable individuals and families/whanau by encouraging their understanding of themselves and each other so they may manage the turmoil of grief and loss, adjust to huge changes and attain their aspirations for their quality of life.
Grief is not only a response to bereavement but can occur following any loss or unwelcome change such as the break-up of a relationship or marriage, fractured family relationships, financial loss, redundancy, injury or illness of self or of a friend/family member.
We work against isolation by supporting involvement in activities with other support services and organisations; encouraging communication and relationships between clients and friends/family.
Grief counselling can lessen the risk of depression and suicidal ideation. As people grow their support systems and tools of resilience they are less likely to turn to drugs, alcohol, self-harm or other unhelpful tools to cope. There is a flow on effect from counselling as our clients become more resilient and capable of functioning in their families, community and workplace.
Grief Support Services offers:
• Up to six funded sessions for individuals and/or family/whanau counselling (in some cases a further six sessions may be possible).
• Child counselling with a Counsellor specialising in working with children.
• Counselling for parents of children younger than 6 to support them to optimise the child’s development and wellbeing as they adjust to loss.
• Presentations to community groups, health professionals and health support agencies about managing the effects of grief and the work of our service.
• Services to people bereaved by suicide and/or effected by someone’s suicidal behaviour. This part of our service is funded by the DHB.
• A confidential service with a range of information resources and links or referrals to other agencies.
