They address spiritual distress (experiences of loss of meaning and connection in relation to yourself, to others and to what you understand as greater) and promote spiritual well-being (connection in relation to yourself, to others and to what you understand as greater).

A SHP will listen compassionately and work with you to determine the support you want and need. Services may include the following:

  • counselling (supportive, problem focused or grief counselling), to help you:
  • find strength to accept what is happening.
  • find meaning and connection in the midst of illness, injury and trauma.
  • cope better with pain and discomfort
  • understand feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, and loneliness
  • understand what’s important to you and make decisions about your health.
