Grief in Pieces - Support for Suicide Loss

Grief in Pieces offers a range of support for people and families who have experienced the loss of a loved one, friend or colleague to suicide including:

• Immediate practical and emotional support following the aftermath of the loss of a loved one to suicide (crisis response)
• Support to access and navigate local services and Q&A workshops
• One to one crisis intervention and family support
• Outreach to individuals and families in the immediate days after the potential loss of a loved one to suicide
• Coping Sessions
• MADE sessions (Managing Anger and Difficult Emotions)
• One to one counselling

The group also offers the Grief in Pieces Healing Support Group. The support group is co facilitated by a mental health practitioner and a peer who has also experienced suicide loss. The group offers an opportunity to share experiences, to normalise grief reactions, and to better understand traumatic grief in a safe, inclusive, supportive environment

The Help is at Hand booklet is an additional resource for people bereaved through suicide or other unexplained death, and for those helping them. Visit their website for more details.
