Helen worked as a children's cancer nurse for twenty years before training as a counsellor and psychotherapist. That experience of caring for sick and dying children gives valuable insight into the challenges faced by families who lose a child. Helen is highly experienced and offers sessions in person, by telephone or by secure video call (Zoom). Helen can arrange an informal chat first, so you can see whether you would feel comfortable working together.

Angela Marston

Angela says working with trauma and grief is a passion and a privilege, and supports families with loss and with the trauma surrounding it. As an EMDR-trained trauma therapist, Angela has the depth of experience often needed to help families work through the circumstances of a sudden loss. Angela is in private practice, has worked at The Priory Hospital for over a decade with acute mental health, and works with several organisations and charities that focus on bereavement, loss and trauma.

Angela's approach is flexible and non-judgemental, meeting people where they are and helping them find ways of living with their loss.
