Welcome to Therapists Talk Therapy. Today we are discussing grief and loss, with our guests Nuala McDonnell and Sharon Manifold. We explore the many ways we can experience loss in our lives, including but not limited to bereavement. We acknowledge the vital role therapists play in facilitating a non-judgemental space for clients to feel and express the wide range, and sometimes contradictory feelings which loss can raise. We reflect on the thought of therapists as professional grievers and highlight the role of self-care in this work.
Nuala is a humanistic and integrative therapist working in private practice in Cork city and online with adults and adolescents. She is a part time lecturer with UCC and an associate lecturer with PCI College. Sharon is an integrative therapist and supervisor working in private practice in Co. Clare.
