Helping our young humans deal with death: A guide for parents & caregivers

Navigating loss and grief is a challenge, even for adults. For children, it's often confusing and overwhelming. As a caregiver, while you can't shield them from the pain of loss, you can provide stability and open communication. Encourage them to express their feelings freely and reassure them that it’s normal to feel sad, angry, or confused. This support is crucial in helping them feel safe and understood during such difficult times.

The ins and outs of relationship therapy

Relationship therapy, traditionally known as couples therapy, offers those within a romantic relationship the opportunity to develop the quality of their relationship. It provides partners a safe space where they can process hurt or unfinished business and develop the communication skills necessary to negotiate life’s challenges as a team.

There’s an expectation that we should all know intuitively how to have healthy, loving relationships, but the truth is we don’t. We try our best but often get stuck in cycles of conflict. The same pattern repeats over and over and no matter how hard you both try - you can’t get out of it. It is draining and can leave you feeling defeated.
