Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need grief counselling?
Grief counselling can be helpful if feelings of loss feel overwhelming, prolonged or disruptive to daily functioning. People often seek counselling when grief affects sleep, concentration, relationships or emotional wellbeing. There is no fixed timeline for grief, and seeking support does not mean something is wrong with how someone is coping.
Can trauma counselling help years after an event?
Yes, trauma counselling can be effective even years after an event. Unprocessed trauma may resurface during life changes or stress. Counselling helps individuals understand how past experiences continue to influence present reactions and supports safer ways to process and integrate those experiences.
What happens in a trauma or grief counselling session?
Trauma and grief counselling sessions typically involve guided conversation focused on emotional responses, experiences and coping patterns. The therapist carefully works to ensure sessions feel contained and paced, helping individuals explore their experiences without becoming overwhelmed. The focus remains on safety, understanding and gradual emotional processing.

Making Sense of Trauma
Understanding Emotional Responses
Trauma and grief counselling centres on helping individuals make sense of emotional responses that arise after loss or distressing events. Lana explores how trauma and grief can affect memory, emotional regulation, relationships and identity. She helps clients recognise why certain reactions may feel sudden, intense or disconnected from logic, and how these responses often act as protective mechanisms. Her work supports gentle exploration of loss, whether recent or long past, while respecting each person’s readiness and capacity.
Lana also helps clients navigate feelings such as sadness, anger, guilt, numbness or confusion, which commonly coexist during grief and trauma. She works at a measured pace, allowing client insight and emotional processing to unfold gradually. Over time, her approach supports resilience, emotional integration and the ability to carry loss without it overwhelming everyday life.
