Review of Adult Bereavement Service
26th May 2023


My counselor Megan was amazing she guided me to talk without pushing and helped me realise my greif for my mother, whilst in the process of my sessions my father passed away which was a difficult time, and Megan helped me through this aswell.

Suggested improvements
I just wish the counseling was for longer than the six week period.

Review of Adult Bereavement Service

Hannah was wonderful! Initially I didn't know whether I wanted or even needed to receive counselling, even though I had self referred. Having completed my sessions I feel better equipped to deal with my situation and have a far better understanding of how to approach things going forward.

Suggested improvements
A shorter wait and more sessions, but that's down to lack of funding so not your fault.

I found Mary so easy to talk too. Nothing was off limits. And most of all the service was there when I needed it. Not when the service said I needed it. I can't thank all the staff involved with Trevor's care or the care shown to me enough. Thank you

Suggested improvements
Nothing.

I felt I could talk openly without judgement it was hard at times as many nternal thoughts I could not share friends or family I felt awful having such thoughts but to hear that these thoughts are common, gave comfort.
