Mother’s Day Grief: Navigating the absence of loved ones

May 9, 2019Glenda O'Neill1 commentblog post, Family, Grief, Grief Support, griefandloss, Grieving Parents, mother's day, Moving Forward, novocounselling, Transition, Trauma

As this Mother’s Day approaches I sit here writing with some big, wild emotions. Torn between which one to share and make my focus. I’m a therapist, so addressing big emotions is what I do. But I’ll confess, perhaps not surprisingly, that there are moments in my own journey that are incredibly challenging. More so…

Connection. Core Human Need or Cliche?

April 14, 2019Glenda O'NeillNo CommentsConnection, getting unstuck, Grief Support, griefandloss, Growth Mindset, Hope, meaning, Moving Forward, novocounselling, purpose; blog post

CONNECTION. It’s one of those core human needs we all have innately placed within us. That hope that somehow our presence is important, valued and desired by someone else. Or is it all just a bit cliché? Why is it that genuine connection seems to be so lacking, and so difficult to find in our…

A Picture Perfect Christmas?!

December 12, 2018Glenda O'NeillNo CommentsChristmas, Christmas and Family, Family, Grief, Grief and Christmas, Grief Support, Loss, Moving Forward, novocounselling, Transition and Grief; blog post

Personally, I love the Christmas season. It has such special significance for my family and I as we celebrate the most precious of things to us. My childhood years were filled with an abundance of memorable (even ridiculous) moments, rituals and traditions that will be impressed upon my heart and mind for the rest of…

We Will Remember Them

November 11, 2017Glenda O'NeillNo CommentsAnxiety, Australian Defence Force, Depression, Family, Grief, Grief Support, griefandloss, mindmatters, novocounselling, pain, PTSD, purpose, Remembrance Day, Trauma

As Australians we have two special days in our calendar each year dedicated to honouring and remembering our incredible service men and women in the Defence Forces. Anzac Day and Remembrance Day are both days throughout my years that I remember with fondness. Growing up, I didn’t have a personal connection with anyone in the…

Discovering Purpose In Your Pain

July 13, 2017Glenda O'Neill2 commentsAnxiety, Grief, Grief Support, griefandloss, Grieving Parents, Loss, meaning, novocounselling, pain, purpose, stress, tragedy

Throughout my lifetime I have come to understand that our lives as human beings are littered with both incredible beauty and intense pain. There were times particularly earlier in my life, where I found myself asking ‘Why me?’ In those moments of heartbreak and wonder I’m not sure I ever really found an answer to…

Infertility: The heartbreak of hope deferred

June 11, 2017Glenda O'NeillNo CommentsChildren, Family, Fertility Issues, Grief, Grief Support, Having a Baby, Infertility, Loss, meaning, Pregnancy, purpose, stages of grief

“Having children may not be a reality for you!” These words echoed like gun-shots through my mind over and over again. If you’ve ever heard these words uttered to you by someone in the medical profession you will understand the intense shock and pain that follows. Despite the gentle manner in which these words had been delivered,…

Through a Child’s Eyes

May 10, 2017Glenda O'NeillNo CommentsChildren & Grief, Grief, Grief Support, Grieving Parents, Teens & Grief

In the blink of an eye, as an impressionable 13 year old navigating my way through the turbulent world of teenage-hood, I found myself plunged into a world of heartache and grief that I had never imagined possible. I had no idea who to turn to. I had my parents, who were navigating their own…

How can I support someone grieving?

April 18, 2017Glenda O'NeillNo CommentsGrief, Grief Support, Loss, stages of grief, Trauma

I wonder, if like me, you’ve found yourself at some time scratching your head, wondering how on earth you could craft the perfect, heartfelt condolence message for someone in your world as they faced a significant loss. As someone who has developed a passion journeying with people through their grief, I have created many awkward…
