When Should a Child See a Counsellor? A Parent's Guide
Two questions usually come first: am I overreacting, and have I left it too late? No, and no. This guide walks through the signs worth noticing at different ages, how to tell an ordinary rough patch from something worth acting on, what child counselling actually looks like for a child (think play, art and sideways conversation), and a few things you can try tonight.
Grief counselling online: is it right for me?
Grief is deeply personal. There's no timeline, no "right way" to feel, and no one-size-fits-all approach to healing after loss. Whether you've lost a partner, parent, child, friend, or experienced estrangement, the weight of that absence is real—and sometimes you need more than time to process it. Online grief counselling offers a gentle, accessible path to healing that fits your life, your schedule, and your comfort level.
At Halo Journey Australia, we understand that grief doesn't follow business hours. That's why we offer grief therapy and bereavement support 7 days a week, from 6am–10pm Melbourne time—with no waitlists, no judgment, and a safe space that respects exactly who you are.
This post explores what online grief counselling is, who it's for, and whether it might be the right fit for your healing journey right now.
