Brisbane Grief Counselling
About Brisbane Grief Counselling
Hi, I’m Amy, I am a specialist grief counsellor and I work with women and families facing losses (death-related and non-death-related losses across the lifespan).
Something has happened and you are now trying to pick up the pieces. Grief is often a lonely journey and can feel all consuming. Whether you are trying to start or grow your family, adjusting to pregnancy or early parenting challenges, navigating pregnancy or parenting after loss, or figuring out how to ‘be you’ and still parent in a way that feels congruent to your life values, I am here to hold space for these conversations.
Matrescence is the transition we make from maiden to mother, likened to adolescence, and it is a transition of mind, body, soul and spirit.
As a therapist in this space, I walk alongside you as a companion while you navigate the complexity and challenges of living with loss. Together we create a safe space for your experience to be witnessed, for you to tell the truth about your grief, to be seen and heard without judgment.
You do not have to do this journey alone.

Conversations to Have With Your Partner Before Baby Arrives
Most people plan for birth with a detailed birth plan, but what about a postpartum care plan? Talking openly before your baby is born about expectations, responsibilities, and emotional support can make the adjustment smoother. From who’s doing the night feeds to how you’ll support each other through exhaustion, these conversations are essential for protecting your partnership, strengthening your mental health, and laying the foundation for a connected family.

Tips to avoid maternal burnout
Perfectionism is not a healthy habit. Even less so when it comes to motherhood, unless you’re keen to rub shoulders with overwhelm, resentment, rage and the feeling of never being satisfied, which can eventually lead to maternal burnout.

Human Design for Motherhood: Understanding Yourself, Your Child, and Your Parenting
At first glance, you might wonder how Human Design is relevant to your motherhood journey, but I want to share with you the incredible wisdom that this modality offers. The way I see it, this support comes in three powerful ways. It provides guidance and understanding of yourself — how you’re wired and what your needs are. It offers insight into your child and practical guidance to parent in accordance with their unique nature. It strengthens the bond between you, helping you foster a relationship built on understanding rather than expectation.

Inside the Postpartum Home Preparation Service Transforming New Parents’ First Days
Bringing a newborn home is one of the most transformative moments in a family’s life, but it often arrives with overwhelm, exhaustion, and a steep learning curve. While many expectant parents spend months preparing for birth, far fewer have the time, support, or energy to prepare their home for the postpartum period. That’s where the NEST postpartum home preparation service steps in. Designed to create a soft landing for new parents and parents travelling with young children, this offering blends practical support, newborn home organisation, nourishing postpartum food, thoughtful touches, and a deep understanding of what new mothers and families truly need in those early days. We interviewed Kendra Greig the founder of NEST, to explore what inspired this unique service, what families can expect, and how a beautifully prepared home can ease the transition into newborn life.
