About Me: What We Offer
My name is Andy. I set up Mourning Light because I believe the power of
relationship combined with the therapy I offer can help you to integrate
and find meaning from your loss, even in the most traumatic of
circumstances.

I have worked for the past seven years for the NHS working within a
cognitive behavioural framework as both a Senior Psychological
Wellbeing Practitioner and Colleague Wellbeing Trainer. Prior to this I
completed an advanced diploma in integrative counselling training and
volunteered for local low-cost counselling charities. More recently I have
completed specialist grief training at the forefront of evidence-based
practice for loss from the Center for Prolonged Grief (Columbia
University, New York).

Counselling enables individuals to express themselves and process their
emotions, whilst cognitive behavioural therapy can offer a more framed
therapeutic support to address the wellbeing ramifications of resulting
depression and anxiety such as lack of motivation, withdrawal from life
and struggles facing a new and uncertain future.

Specialist grief training has offered me a framework to work towards
enabling the best possible outcomes; it has proven to be almost twice as
effective as traditional grief therapy and adopted in pilot studies by the
NHS in the last few years.

With the combination of world-leading grief training, my focus upon
relationship, and the experience of having helped thousands of people
within the NHS- I am well placed to support you with the empathy,
integrity, respect and professionalism you deserve.
