We can also provide you with links to appropriate organisations who can support you around the loss of a loved-one through alcohol or other drugs.
Counselling services can provide a safe place to express your grief and difficult thoughts and feelings in a confidential and supportive environment, allowing you to make sense of your own personal grief process.
