JACKIE TARABAY
HEALING GRIEF & TRAUMA
SPEAKING THE UNSPEAKABLE
When five-year-old Sam was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumour, his mothers’ world changed forever. What followed was a journey no parent should ever have to take. It was a journey filled with heartbreak and hope, courage and despair, and an unforgettable goodbye. Yet this is not simply a story of loss. It is a story about an extraordinary love that continues to live on.
1-1 CONSULTATIONS
At the heart of my counselling practice is meeting each person with compassion, curiosity, and care.
Whether you are navigating grief and loss, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, or simply feeling overwhelmed and unsure where to begin, together, we explore what’s happening in your thoughts, emotions, and body, building awareness, and discovering new ways of being that feel more aligned and whole.
Wherever you are on your journey, I’ll walk alongside you - with presence, empathy, and kindness.

WORKSHOPS
Grief touches every workplace, whether through the death of a colleague, a client, or the personal loss of a team member. Yet so often, organisations feel unsure how to respond with compassion and confidence.

Designed to foster a culture of care, these trainings are grounded in evidence, shaped by lived experience, and delivered with warmth and humility. Whether you're in health, education, community services or corporate settings, your team will leave feeling more prepared to support those who are grieving.
