Grief & Loss Counselling in Bundoora & Melbourne's North

 

Grief doesn't follow a schedule, and it rarely looks the way people expect. It might arrive as sadness, or it might show up as anger, numbness, exhaustion, or a strange sense of relief you feel guilty for having. Whatever it looks like for you, it's valid — and you don't have to carry it by yourself.


I work with individuals and couples navigating the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a diagnosis, or any significant change that has reshaped your life. For couples grieving together, I offer a structured approach that helps you understand each other's grieving styles, so loss doesn't quietly become something that divides you at exactly the time you need each other most.


Using a person-centred, trauma-informed approach, we'll create space for your grief to be witnessed rather than fixed, while also building the coping tools that help you carry it and keep living alongside it.


I provide this support in Bundoora, Mill Park, South Morang, Epping, Reservoir, Doreen, Mernda, Wollert, Thomastown, Lalor, Broadmeadows, Craigieburn, Roxburgh Park, Preston, Somerton, and across greater Melbourne — in person and via telehealth. Sessions are available in English and Arabic. As a PACFA-registered Clinical Counsellor with 5+ years of experience and over 1,500 individual sessions, I bring both clinical expertise and lived experience as a migrant, mother, and career changer to every session.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at admin@petuniacounselling.com.au if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Grief counselling offers a supportive space to process loss, whatever form it takes, while building coping tools to help you carry your grief rather than be overwhelmed by it.


There is no fixed timeline. Some people seek support immediately after a loss, while others come months or even years later. Both are completely valid.


 Yes. Alongside individual grief counselling, a structured approach is also offered for couples grieving together, helping partners understand each other's grieving styles so loss does not quietly divide you.


No. Grief can involve sadness, anger, numbness, relief, or a mix of all of these. Part of this work is helping you understand that your own experience of grief is valid.


This depends entirely on your circumstances and the nature of your loss. Some clients benefit from a short, focused series of sessions, while others continue longer-term support. This is reviewed together as we go.
