Counselling

Zephyr’s is currently offering a specialist bereavement counselling service for lives that have been touched by pregnancy loss (at any gestation) or the death of a baby or child. Our counselling service is for bereaved parents, grandparents and older siblings aged 16 years and over and is currently only available for those based in Nottingham or Nottinghamshire.

Held in our warm and welcoming therapy room at Sherwood Community Centre, we are offering up to 12 sessions with a member of our gentle and approachable counselling team. These sessions are suitable for both couples and individuals. Our three counsellors are professional and well-skilled; supporting you as you explore and express your grief and feelings following loss. We provide a non-judgemental, safe and open space that is centred around you.

Our therapy room is upstairs on the first floor of the community centre. If you have accessibility needs please let us know when you make your enquiry. We can make arrangements for sessions to take place online, over the phone, or at an alternative location.

Zephyr’s counsellors, Rachael, Kymm and Manisha are here for you through your 12 sessions of counselling. These sessions can be planned to suit you, and give you the chance to feel held and be heard in whatever you feel ready to talk about. Our counsellors can also refer you to Zephyr’s other support sessions, and can share details of alternative ways that our charity can support you and other members of your family.

Our counselling service is highly confidential and operates diligently within the frameworks and guidance for UKCP and BACP registered therapists. All of our counsellors have their own professional supervision so they can support you with compassion and sensitivity, and carefully within the boundaries of their professional relationship with you.

If you are ready to take the first step to support yourself through counselling, please fill out the below form and we’ll go from there. Once we receive your enquiry one of us will get back to you as soon as we possibly can. Please note that our counselling service is subject to our funding and availability and there may be a waiting list for an initial appointment.

Please note that we are currently working through a waiting list and will be taking referrals and enquiries again soon. If you require urgent support please get in touch here.

This service has been kindly supported by The Harley Jae Trust.
