Harry’s Helping Hands Grief and Loss Counselling was created in honour of my son Harry, whose life was taken far too soon.

The loss of Harry changed my world in ways that are difficult to put into words. When someone you love is suddenly gone, life can feel as though it has been turned upside down. The intensity of grief, the shock, the confusion, and the unexpected emotions that arise can feel overwhelming and impossible to navigate.

During my own journey through loss, I experienced firsthand how isolating grief can feel — especially when the circumstances surrounding the loss are traumatic. There were moments when I wished deeply for someone who truly understood what it felt like to sit in the depths of grief. Someone who could gently guide me through the moments when everything felt too heavy to carry alone.

Harry’s Helping Hands was born from that experience.

Creating this service became my way of honouring Harry’s life and transforming the pain of loss into something that could support others who are navigating devastating grief and loss. My mission is to provide compassionate support for individuals and families who are facing the unimaginable reality of losing someone or something they love.

Harry’s memory continues to guide the work I do. Through Harry’s Helping Hands, my hope is to support others through the darkest moments of grief and help them find understanding, compassion, and support as they navigate life after loss.

You do not have to walk this journey alone.

That experience shapes the way I approach counselling today.

My work is grounded in compassion, honesty, and deep respect for the courage it takes to speak about grief and trauma. I understand that when someone reaches out for support, they may feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure whether anything can help.

In counselling sessions, I offer a safe and supportive space where people can talk openly about their experiences — whether they are navigating child loss, loss of a partner or loved one, suicide loss, overdose loss, sudden death, traumatic circumstances surrounding loss, or other forms of profound grief.

I believe people deserve to be supported with both professional knowledge and genuine human understanding. Grief can feel isolating, particularly when the loss is sudden or traumatic. My aim is to sit alongside clients as they process their experiences, make sense of complex emotions, and develop ways to navigate life after loss.

While grief changes us, it is possible to find ways to move forward with support, understanding, and compassion.

You do not have to navigate this journey alone.
