Counselling in Kent
My name is Erica and I specialise in pet bereavement counselling. I particularly focus on addressing the often-overlooked grief that comes with pet loss. Many people, including employers, may devalue this grief, making it even harder to cope with. This can lead to feelings of shame and the need to hide your true emotions. In our sessions, I offer a safe, judgement-free space where you can honour your family member and work through your grief without feeling ashamed.

Sometimes our lives are interrupted by events, changing circumstances and personal challenges. Having a trusting and non-judgemental relationship with a caring professional, can enable you to work through such difficult times and move forward. We can work together to explore your current situation in a safe, non-directive and confidential way. This will give you the opportunity to reflect, question, process, allow for change, or whatever you feel is necessary at this time. If what you need is someone to listen unconditionally and respectfully, as you find your way on your journey, then we can work together.

Sometimes we don't have the words to express the way we are feeling. Art Therapy is a way of helping us to do this in a safe, non-judgmental, confidential space. The artwork is not used as a diagnostic tool but as a process and a way of working through emotional issues. As an Art Therapist I will support and listen to your story and together we will make sense of your thoughts, feelings and experiences.

I am well aware that at times life can be difficult; you may feel anxious, over-whelmed, worried or just not right. Or you may feel that your past experiences are having an impact on how you deal with things in your life today.

My approach is open, honest and down-to-earth and I am a firm believer in the counselling process and the good that it can do.
