I’m Sally Hunt – Your Bereavement Counselling Specialist

For over 15 years, I’ve been helping people navigate the complex emotions of grief and loss. I understand that bereavement doesn’t just bring sadness—it often triggers anxiety, depression, and feelings of worthlessness that can feel impossible to overcome alone.
As a fully qualified integrative counsellor and BACP member, I specialise in:

  • Bereavement & Grief Counselling: Including sudden loss, complicated grief, and anticipatory grief.
  • Pet Bereavement: Supporting you through the loss of beloved animal companions.
  • Depression Support: When grief brings overwhelming sadness and hopelessness.
  • Anxiety Management: Addressing worry, panic, and fear that often accompany loss.
  • Low Self-Esteem Recovery: Rebuilding your sense of worth and confidence

How I Can Help You Through Bereavement

Bereavement & Grief Counselling:

Whether you’ve lost a spouse, parent, child, friend, or anyone significant, I provide specialised support to help you process your grief and find a path forward.

Depression After Loss:

Grief often brings deep depression that affects not just you, but your family and work life. I help you understand these feelings and develop coping strategies.

Pet Bereavement Support:

The loss of a beloved pet can be just as devastating as losing a human family member. I offer understanding and validation for this often-minimized form of grief.

Anxiety & Worry caused by Grief:

Loss can trigger overwhelming anxiety about the future, your own mortality, or losing others you love. Together, we’ll address these fears and help you move forward.
