As part of our supportive program, we were delighted to have Wendy & Nathan come along to deliver a half-day program, the remit being the support of families during the festive Christmas, holiday and New Year periods – a difficult time for most families but especially in the early years after the death of a loved one.  This was a huge ask, but they managed to address everything on my ‘wish list’  in offering support and help to parents, siblings and grandparents.

Wendy and Nathan worked in tandem in exploring the challenges and difficulties faced and offered strategies that might ease the absence of that family member, especially at these family orientated times.    They handled the subject matter with compassion, understanding and patience, showing a true empathy with those that were able to attend, allowing participants to explore and verbalise their challenges, in a supportive environment. Even their slide preparations complemented their delivery, offering a gentle sense of a safe place.  where it was fine to express thoughts and concerns.

The professionalism shown by both Wendy and Nathan, is to be commended.  They truly understand how difficult the loss of a loved one can impact on an individual and on a family.
