Why contact Kilkenny Bereavement Support?
Following a death, each person’s loss is different and so each person’s grief journey will be unique to them. Grief does not occur any particular sequence; it ebbs and flows, it follows its own rhythm and time.
Grief can affect us at different levels namely:
- Feelings
- Physically
- Thoughts
- Behaviours
- Social Difficulties
- Spiritual Difficulties
It helps the healing process to talk with a trained listener and work through the strong feelings associated with grief. It could help to talk with one of our trained listeners.
