Are you or someone you know grieving
the death of a loved one
The death of a loved one is an incredibly painful and personal experience. Grief can feel overwhelming, unpredictable, and at times, isolating. But you don’t have to face it alone—support is available to help you navigate this difficult time.
the death of a child
Losing a child is profound, life-altering, and deeply personal. There is no roadmap for navigating grief, and the journey through loss is unique to each parent. While healing may feel distant, support is available to help carry the weight of your grief.
a miscarriage or still birth
Experiencing the loss of a baby through miscarriage or stillbirth is deeply heartbreaking and often accompanied by a range of complex emotions and lingering questions. For those on this painful journey, support is available and you don’t have to face it alone.
sudden or unexpected loss
NALAG can provide immediate support to individuals and organisations affected by sudden and unexpected incidents involving injury or death. Our trained volunteers and counsellors are available within 24hours to help you navigate through the initial shock and trauma.
or experiencing a life changing situation
Grief isn't only tied to loss through death—it can arise from any major life change that shifts the foundation of what was once familiar. Transitions like divorce, career changes, moving away from home, health diagnoses, or even shifts in identity can bring feelings of grief.
Relationship Breakdown
The end of a relationship can bring deep grief, much like bereavement. Emotions like sadness, anger, and confusion are natural. Healing takes time, but with support and self-compassion, individuals can navigate the loss and find resilience.
Pet Loss
Losing a pet can bring deep grief, as they are cherished companions and family members. Feelings of sadness, emptiness, and longing are natural. With time, support, and remembering the love shared, healing becomes possible.
Loss of a Job
Losing a job or financial stability can bring significant grief, affecting both emotional well-being and sense of security. Feelings of uncertainty, stress, and loss of identity are natural. With time and support recovery is possible.
Going into Care
Transitioning into aged care can bring feelings of grief, as it often involves changes in independence, routine, and familiar surroundings. Adjusting to this new stage of life takes time, support, and reassurance.
Caring for Someone with Dementia
It is common for caregivers to have feelings of loss and grief as they care for a loved one with dementia. You are entitled to these emotions and may start to experience them as soon as you learn diagnosis.
Loneliness
Loneliness can be a deep and challenging experience, leaving individuals feeling disconnected and unseen. Whether due to loss, change, or isolation, loneliness is a natural but painful response.
Disability + Terminal Illness
Facing a terminal illness or living with a disability can bring grief, as it often involves loss of independence, changing abilities, and uncertainty about the future. These experiences can be deeply emotional and support can help.
