WORK WITH US...
Childlessness can be an immense rupture in the fabric of your life.
This multi-layered loss can lead to deep grief and shatter your social world.
The silence and insensitive comments can intensify isolation and shame.
This can complicate the grieving process and
undermine your capacity to care for yourself and your future.
It can lead you to question your value,
your self worth and your life's purpose.
Navigating grief is a set of skills that can be learned.
Grief, like love, can awaken you to the fullness of life.
We believe childlessness is an invitation into wholeness.
We have witnessed the transformation in our own lives and
the lives of the women in our community.
We don't just support you to cope,
we invite you to be transformed.
We believe in your capacity to make your grief an ally and
create a vibrant child-free life full of meaning and joy
And we're here to help you do that.
Our aim is to equip and support you
to navigate the journey ahead.
Counselling at The Empty Cradle is delivered by professional therapists
who have lived experience of involuntary childlessness.
Our work is informed by
'state of the art' academic research and
extensive clinical experience
(with a touch of wholehearted magic thrown in).
We draw on a range of therapeutic perspectives, including;
constructivist approaches to grief and loss,
attachment informed, strengths based and narrative therapy,
coaching and mentoring.
Come, join us.
We see you, we know you, we are you.
Sessions are available online by zoom.
