Losses people bring to therapy
Bereavement
The death of a parent, partner, friend or pet, whether recent or years ago.
Grieving from abroad
Losing someone back home while living in Spain: missing the funeral, guilt about the distance, grieving without the people who knew them.
Break-ups and divorce
The end of a relationship, and with it a shared life and plans for the future.
Life changes
Leaving a country, a career or a version of yourself behind.
Grief that gets stuck
When months or years later the pain still feels as raw as at the start, or you feel you can't let yourself grieve at all.
How we work
Grief isn't something to fix or rush. In therapy we make space for what you feel, including what is hard to say elsewhere: anger, guilt, relief or numbness.
Gestalt therapy offers specific ways to work with what was left unsaid and with saying goodbye. Over time the aim is to carry the loss in a way that lets you keep living, not to forget.
Fees
Individual therapy
€70The first three sessions last an hour; after that, 45 to 50 minutes.
If you're in crisis or worried about your safety, call 112 (emergencies) or 024 (Spain's suicide prevention line, free and available 24 hours).
Frequently asked questions
How do I know if I need help with grief?
There is no right timeline. It can help to talk to someone if the pain is getting in the way of daily life, if you feel stuck, or if you simply don't have space to grieve elsewhere.
Is it too soon, or too late, to start?
Neither. Some people come in the first weeks; others years later.
Can we do sessions online?
Yes, by video call from anywhere in Spain.
Do you work with grief after a break-up?
Yes. Losing a relationship is also a loss, and it often deserves the same care.
