The Grieve • Breathe • Live Membership offers a gentle space to make sense of grief, find moments of steadiness and reconnect with yourself.
Explore reflections, grounding tools and practical resources whenever they feel helpful, and return to them when needed.

My work offers a grounded, compassionate space to gently explore those parts of grief - helping you expand your capacity, reconnect with yourself, and move through life with more steadiness and self-trust.
Grieve • Breathe • Live isn’t just the name of my business. It is the philosophy that guides every session, every reflection and every resource I create.
These aren’t stages to complete, because grief doesn’t move in a straight line. We may move between grieving, finding moments of safety, and reconnecting with life many times - sometimes within the same day.
My role isn’t to lead you through a fixed process. It’s to meet you where you are, understand what’s most important in that moment and gently support you from there. That’s why my approach is built around three interconnected pillars: Grieve, Breathe and Live - making sense of your experience, finding safety within yourself, and reconnecting with who you’re becoming.

Together we’ll gently make sense of your grief, your emotions, your identity and the parts of your story that can feel impossible to put into words.
This is about understanding your experience - not judging it.

We’ll explore ways to support your nervous system, expand your capacity and create moments of steadiness when life feels overwhelming.
Small moments of safety become the foundation for everything else.

As grief changes, so do we.
We’ll gently explore identity, relationships, purpose and what it means to build a life that carries grief, rather than leaves it behind.

After losing my husband at 33, I was left not only with my own overwhelming grief, but also supporting my two children through the loss of their dad. It was a time where I felt completely lost and no longer knew who I was.
Louise held a space for me that felt truly safe, compassionate, and deeply personal. She met me with such care and understanding, allowing me to move at a pace that felt right for me, without pressure or expectation.
She gently supported me in finding my way back to myself, helping me navigate the pain and complexity of my grief. Through her guidance, I began to understand how deeply my grief was affecting my mind, body, and spirit.
What touched me most was how Louise helped me listen to my grief rather than fear it, guiding me to understand what it was asking of me. That experience has been profoundly moving and has changed the way I see myself and my healing journey.

When I lost my wife, I found it incredibly difficult to talk to family and friends because they were carrying their own grief. I didn't want to add to their burden. I knew from the outset that I didn’t want counselling. I just wanted a safe place to talk. I needed someone who truly understood, and I found that in Louise.
From our very first session, I felt as though I was talking to a caring and trusted friend. Her warmth, compassion and genuine empathy immediately put me at ease. She understands grief not only through her professional training but also from her own personal experience, and that gave me confidence that I was speaking to someone who truly understood what I was going through.
There was never any pressure to reach a particular outcome or to grieve in a certain way. We took each step at a pace that felt right for me, allowing each session to unfold naturally. Through our conversations, thoughts, feelings and memories surfaced that I hadn't expected. With her gentle guidance, I began to see things differently and gained a much clearer understanding of what was truly important to me. Over time, through the sessions, I began to smile and laugh. At the beginning I found it difficult to look at photos as the pain was too much. But through Louise's guidance I'm now able to look at them with fond memories. The pain is still there but my love now rises to the top.
Perhaps the greatest gift Louise gave me was helping me find meaningful ways to stay connected with my late wife. Rather than feeling that I had to let go, I learned that I could continue that bond while finding a way to live alongside my grief.
I will always be grateful for her kindness, patience and understanding. She has helped me navigate the most difficult journey of my life with compassion, hope and without judgement. I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone who is living with the pain of loss.

I discovered Louise after her heartfelt short videos about grief popped up on my Facebook account. Having lost my beloved wife in 2025, I felt I could really relate to the videos.
Louise has been providing amazing support to me through weekly video meetings. She has a natural aura of kindness, compassion and patience, which makes me feel at ease speaking about my loss and how it has impacted me. She shows an intuitive understand of the challenges and contradictions of grief, which I feel comes from her own lived experiences of grief, her training and her background working in the health field. Her session write ups are so helpful to me in summarising the themes she took from each meeting. They let me go back and reflect on our discussions.
The resources Louise provides are really supportive too, including video links, audio files, tools for exploring how grief is impacting on me and recommended further reading. I also find her session pricing incredibly reasonable for the level of support she gives.
If you are looking for gentle support through your grief, I can't recommend Louise highly enough.
I recently joined Dave on the Kinship Healing podcast for a thoughtful conversation about grief, identity and living alongside loss.
It was a lovely chance to talk about some of the ideas at the heart of Grieve • Breathe • Live in a way that felt honest, human & grounded.
