Grief Counselling
Grief counselling offers a steady place to mourn, make meaning, and carry loss without being rushed to “move on”.
In-person at Vita Mea Clinic in Mosta or online · We reply within 2 working days
Grief rarely follows a neat timeline. Whether you’ve lost someone you love, a relationship, a pregnancy, health, or a future you expected, bereavement can leave you raw, numb, angry, or quietly adrift. At Vita Mea Clinic, grief counselling gives you space to feel what you feel — without being hurried toward closure.
We support people across Malta through recent loss, complicated grief, and the longer waves that return on anniversaries and ordinary Tuesdays alike.
Sessions are available in-person at Vita Mea Clinic in Mosta and online, at a pace that honours your mourning.
Is this right for you?
This work may be a good fit if any of these sound familiar:
- A loss still feels unbearable or unfinished
- You’re functioning but feel numb, angry, or alone in your grief
- People around you expect you to be “over it”
- Grief is affecting sleep, work, or relationships
- You’re grieving something others don’t recognise as loss
What we can help with
- Bereavement after the death of a loved one
- Complicated or prolonged grief
- Loss of a relationship, role, or identity
- Grief after illness, miscarriage, or major life change
- Anniversary reactions and waves of mourning
- Supporting children or family members who are grieving
What to expect
Room to mourn
We make space for the full range of grief — sadness, anger, relief, guilt, love — without judging what “should” be felt.
Making meaning at your pace
Therapy isn’t about forgetting. It’s about finding ways to carry what matters while still living.
Support for the people around the loss
Where helpful, we can also support family members navigating grief together.
Our approach
Grief work is gentle, relational, and non-prescriptive. We draw on bereavement-informed counselling and, where trauma sits inside the loss, trauma-aware approaches including EMDR when appropriate.

Frequently asked questions
How soon after a loss should I come to counselling?
There’s no correct timeline. Some people come in the first weeks; others come months or years later when grief resurfaces. You’re welcome whenever the weight feels hard to carry alone.
Is grief counselling only for death?
No. We also support grief after separation, illness, identity loss, and other significant endings — losses that aren’t always recognised by others.
