Sudden Sam

Emotional Support at Sudden Sam

1:1 Counselling

Counselling is a form of 'talk therapy'. It is a process where an individual meets with a professional in order to help process their emotions.

Small Group Counselling

Small group counselling is also a form of talk therapy but, instead of an individual, it is for a small group of people, typically a family who are all grieving the same sudden loss of a loved one.

Community Emotional Support

This is when a large group of people come together for emotional support. Sudden Sam aims to host various community events, such as coffee mornings focusing on bereavement, sudden loss, and trauma.

Who can access counselling through Sudden Sam?

Our service is for anyone who has been impacted by a sudden loss within the Liverpool City Region. It does not matter how long ago the loss was. There is no time constraint on grief.

How do I make a referral?

You can make a self-referral by filling the form in our website. You do not need a GP referral. Anyone can refer themselves or a loved one (with their permission). You can also contact us for a referral if you struggle with computers.

What happens after my referral?

A Sudden Sam trustee reviews your referral and contacts the counsellor on your behalf. The trustee will also get in contact with you to confirm your referral has been received and processed. A counsellor will then be in touch, usually within 5 working days.

Is there any cost to counselling?

Absolutely not. Our services are free and always will be.

Is the counselling confidential?

Everything discussed with your counsellor is confidential. Exceptions to this rule would be if there is an immediate safeguarding concern. More information about this is available within our Emotional Support policy on our website.
