Who We Train
Our training isn’t an off-the-shelf package delivered in the same way to every organisation. We shape it around your people, their work and the real situations they need to feel better equipped to handle.
Grief, loss and difficult conversations show up differently in different professions.
Supporting a grieving therapy client is not the same as helping a family arrange a funeral or guiding someone through financial decisions after a death. The principles may overlap, but the context, responsibilities and conversations are different.
Our courses are available to individual professionals developing their skills, as well as teams and organisations looking for wider training. Some of the organisations we have created and delivered training for include:
Sands, Doctors In Distress, Sheffield Hallam University, Greater Manchester Police, MET Police, SoBS, Suicide&Co, Cruse Bereavement Support, EOL Doulas UK, Miscarriage UK, What’s Your Grief, and NHS Trusts and local authorities.
Are You A FUNERAL PROFESSIONAL?
Funeral professionals meet people during some of the most disorientating moments of their lives. Conversations may involve shock, traumatic or unexpected deaths, complicated family relationships, neurodivergence and very different ways of expressing grief.
Our training helps funeral professionals understand what may be happening beneath the surface and communicate with greater confidence and care. It is suitable for individual funeral professionals, independent funeral homes and larger funeral organisations.
ARE YOU IN FINANCIAL SERVICES?
Grief and money often meet when people are least able to think clearly. Bereaved clients may be dealing with cognitive overload, urgent decisions, family tensions and unfamiliar financial processes. Their needs and communication can also be shaped by neurodivergence.
Our training helps financial professionals handle these conversations with greater understanding and confidence while continuing to provide clear, practical support. It can be adapted for individual advisers, client-facing teams and financial organisations.
ARE YOU A COUNSELLOR/therapist?
Grief does not always arrive in therapy neatly labelled as grief. It may be tangled up with identity, neurodivergence, relationship endings, estrangement, life transitions or experiences that other people have failed to recognise as loss.
Our CPD accredited training connects grief theory with practical therapeutic work. It is designed for individual counsellors, psychotherapists and mental health professionals, as well as counselling teams and services.
