About Kristen

I'm Kristen, registered counsellor with a special interest in grief and loss but I wasn't always a grief counsellor. I had a business background and life was good until suddenly everything changed in an instant when my younger sister died. I knew it was called 'grief' but I had no idea how all-encompassing everything to come was. Grief is raw, messy, lonely, misunderstood & more. 

My own experiences of grief have made me realise a greater need of grief education and support within our society.

No two people will grieve the same way, it is such an individual experience so there is no right or wrong, only what feels right for you moving forward.

I look forward to supporting you.

Loving Compassion,

Kristen.
