Spiritual Counselling

Spiritual Counselling is a method of helping people deeply understand what is happening in their life, the present moment, from their experience of adversity to find a way forward out of the shadows and aftermath of grief and loss.

There is no escaping the pain of loss. It is a devastating experience for many because on the most part we are not prepared for loss. However, when we know more about death, dying and the AfterLife, we can perhaps feel less fearful and be less devastated by grief.

The passing of my son became a defining moment in my life. The devastation I felt from immense sorrow, to confusion from the many unanswered questions and feeling alone in grief with little support from people who understood my loss. While yearning to know my son Brett, the deceased, was okay.

My experience of loss highlighted that unless one has travelled this path themselves, it is difficult for others to comprehend the enormity of Grief & Loss, particularly if trauma related.  I remember that day as I stood alone at a crossroads not knowing how to move forward, yet self-determined to find a way out of this Dark Knight of the Soul, and I did! Turning Love into Action!

Rising Strong’s Spiritual Counselling evolved from my personal journey of healing through trauma loss to suicide that sparked a deep yearning to discover true meaning to life, the purpose of all our existence here on earth, including the desire to explore the Afterlife.

This unique method explores and draws upon the hidden universe ‘as within, so without’, the relationship between our inner and outer worlds. Empowering you to seek the wisdom learnings from life’s experiences, uncover one’s relationship to deeper truths, and guide you to seek higher purpose & meaning from your loss, and that, your existence with All Life. 

These wisdoms will move one out of deep emotional pain, allow opportunity to formulate one’s own answers and new beliefs to bring clarity, acceptance and peace with the loss your have suffered as you are nurtured, witnessed and deeply listened to, with compassion.

You will notice life returns to a new gentle heart rhythm in flow with life igniting love, purpose and connection to life!

  • Guilt, blame & feeling unheard from friends, family because they don’t understand your loss, leaving you to feel alone and unsafe to speak about your loved one, in turn silencing your grief.

  • NO-thing but emptiness and detachment, feeling numb that this loss is the death you too died, and all you ever knew to be true about life has completely vanished.

  • Heightened stress, nervousness and low vitality, feeling as though your bodies flight, fight and freeze responses are overreacting to things you wouldn’t normally.

  • Turmoil and heartache from the many unanswered questions of Why, often blaming yourself and feeling guilty wishing you could have done more?

“The reality is that you will grieve forever.
You will not ‘get over’ the loss of a loved one; you’ll learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again, but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to.”
— Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and David Kessler

  • What are others saying?

    After many years of dealing with my grief and trying to remove it from my body. I met Mel who has a technique I have not come across before. Her gentle kind manner supported me whilst going through the process. Grief is one of the strongest emotions to deal with, after 4 sessions with Mel I would highly recommend her to anyone who is wanting to release their grief and move forward with their life. I am so grateful.
