Grief Counselling in West London

Grief is not something to be fixed - it is something to be held, honoured, and moved through in your own time.

The loss of someone or something meaningful can bring profound emotional pain, disorientation, and a sense that the world no longer makes sense. Whether it’s the death of a loved one, the loss of a relationship, a miscarriage, the end of a chapter, or a loss that isn’t widely recognised - grief touches every part of life.


There is no right way to grieve. It may come in waves, show up unexpectedly, or remain quiet but ever-present. It may bring sadness, anger, numbness, guilt, or moments of unexpected clarity. Whatever form your grief takes, it deserves space, understanding, and care.


At The Knightsbridge Practice, we offer a supportive and non-judgmental space for grief counselling in West London, to help you process loss, make meaning, and begin to integrate what’s changed - without rushing, and without having to move on before you're ready.

Understanding grief and bereavement

Grief is a reflection of love and attachment. With time, care, and the right support, it’s possible to carry your loss with more gentleness - and to begin shaping life around what remain.

Types of grief we support

  • Bereavement after the death of a partner, family member, friend, or pet

  • Anticipatory grief (before a loss occurs)

  • Miscarriage, fertility grief, or pregnancy loss

  • Loss of identity, health, home, or future plans

  • Divorce, separation, or estrangement

  • Complicated or disenfranchised grief (when a loss is hidden, misunderstood, or unsupported)

How grief counselling can help

Therapy doesn’t erase grief - but it can offer a steady presence in the midst of it. Together, we can:

 

  • Make space for all emotions, including those that feel unexpected or conflicting

  • Explore the meaning of the loss, and the relationship or identity tied to it

  • Process unresolved feelings, regrets, or trauma related to the loss

  • Strengthen inner resources, self-compassion, and emotional resilience

  • Support rituals, remembrance, and ways of staying connected

  • Navigate transitions as life begins to shift around the absence

A flexible, personalised approach to therapy

Many clients benefit from various types of therapy.

 

For example, a session might incorporate the reflective depth of psychodynamic therapy, the practical tools of CBT, and the self-kindness of CFT - all held within a relational, person-centred frame.

 

Your therapist will collaborate with you to shape a path that feels relevant, respectful, and effective.
