Professionals who work with suicide-loss

First and foremost, thank you warmly for what you do.

Sadly, due to the infancy of suicide bereavement research, many professionals aren't sure how to best support suicide-loss survivors and can often feel helpless.

I personally know how hard it can be. Especially when alot of us will be in this role because we have experienced suicide-loss ourselves.

My doctoral research has shown there can be complicated and heavy feelings projected onto professionals, which need regular processing to avoid overwhelm and compassion burnout.

I am devoted to providing specialist training and either regular or one-off supervision to prepare mental health professionals to undertake this work effectively whilst safeguarding their own wellbeing.
