End of Life Therapy
End-of-life therapy is a compassionate approach designed to support individuals and their families as they face the final stages of life. This form of care addresses not only physical symptoms but also the emotional, psychological, and spiritual challenges that arise when death approaches.
As a therapist I help clients explore feelings of fear, regret, or anxiety, providing a space for expression and acceptance. Through counselling, mindfulness, and life review techniques, individuals can find meaning and closure, easing the emotional burden of dying.
End-of-life therapy often extends to family members, helping them navigate grief, strengthen communication, and prepare for loss. I guide families through difficult conversations about wishes, forgiveness, and legacy, fostering connection during this sensitive time.
The focus is on quality of life rather than prolonging it. Integrating emotional, spiritual, and physical care ensures that the individual’s remaining time is spent with dignity, peace, and comfort. I can collaborate with palliative care teams to align emotional and medical support.
Ultimately, end-of-life therapy helps transform fear into acceptance and isolation into connection. It encourages clients and families to reflect, heal, and find peace — turning the end of life into a meaningful part of the human experience.
