COUNSELLING
“Counsellors provide the safe space where our fears can be faced, our tears can be shed, and our hearts can be healed.”
Support during the palliative care journey
Our qualified counsellors provide support and guidance to patients navigating their palliative care journey. We also offer family members and loved ones a safe and supportive environment to explore their emotional experience.
Bereavement support – individual
When someone who is cared for by Mercy Hospice dies, our counsellors also offer bereavement support to whānau and caregivers in the weeks or months following the loss.
Bereavement support group
Our team also offers a 6-session bereavement support group for people whose loved one was cared for by Mercy Hospice. Our services are free and confidential, and all our counsellors are members of the NZ Association of Counsellors (NZAC).
