Grief is often a confrontation with one's own feelings. It is perceived, experienced, and lived differently by each person. Especially in our Western culture, there seems to be no room for a conscious approach to loss and grief. Death is often a taboo subject, as it is associated with something absolute and final. Death and faith are closely intertwined and tied to religious beliefs, leaving little room for interpretation at first glance.

Death is an indispensable part of our lives. When viewed not as the end of life but as the conclusion of a life cycle, death takes on a different meaning. Everyone must find their own way of dealing with death and grief. But we can transform the incredible pain in our hearts and souls into something wonderful and overcome self-imposed belief patterns that prevent us from finding peace after the death and loss of a loved one or pet.

Regardless of which mourning rituals are used after death, it is always about the relationship with the deceased. Mourning rituals are intended to honor the deceased and make it easier for those left behind to say goodbye. However, the usual mourning rituals of saying goodbye in person at the coffin or attending a funeral service with family, friends, and community members are not a suitable means of coping with grief for everyone. In a joint discussion, we will explore whether and which ritual acts seem appropriate and helpful for you. Symbols and rituals have a significant expressive power and can release hidden emotions, allowing all the burdens and the unresolved questions of the bereaved to pass away.

You should plan approximately one hour for your initial grief counseling session. We will then determine the length of any further sessions and the planned duration of each session or treatment together.

There's no clear answer to this question, as the number of sessions always depends on your individual needs and feelings. Strong emotions such as shock, depression, hopelessness, as well as aggression, anger, and fear, sometimes stay with the bereaved for a long time and can be lovingly addressed at any time. I'm happy to support you in this process.

The fee is calculated based on the time required for my treatment. I charge €95 per hour. Each additional hour is billed pro rata. If multiple treatments are required and long-term therapy is planned, I will work with you beforehand to create a cost estimate that outlines the individual and total costs.
