Online Bereavement Counselling from Surrey

Resources

This page links to trusted organisations offering emotional, crisis and practical support. Whether you’re facing suicidal thoughts, grief, abuse, or emotional distress, there is help available.

Please note, I don’t offer emergency or on demand crisis services.

This page includes helpful  organisations for those moments when immediate or out-of-hours support is needed.

Suicide Safety Plan

You can download a free suicide safety plan to help manage suicidal thoughts or plans or self-harm urges. If you're using it to address addiction or other challenges, the language will need adjusting.

Watch a guided walkthrough of the Suicide Safety Plan to help you make the most of it, at your own pace.
