Grief & Loss Support Practitioner Training CPD accredited

Grief touches every part of life — yet many people feel unprepared when supporting others through loss, emotional pain, major life transitions, or overwhelming experiences.

This compassionate and practical 2-day in-person training is designed for those who want to develop the confidence, understanding, and skills to safely support individuals experiencing grief, loss, emotional overwhelm, and difficult life experiences.

Whether you already work with people professionally or feel called to support others in a deeper, more meaningful way, this training offers a grounded, human-centred approach to grief support that combines emotional awareness, nervous system understanding, communication skills, and practical support tools.

This is not about “fixing” grief.
It is about learning how to hold space with compassion, professionalism, empathy, and emotional safety.

This training is suitable for:

• Coaches & holistic practitioners
• Therapists & support workers
• Healthcare professionals
• Funeral and bereavement support staff
