At Rotherham Hospice

Counselling

Our Counselling Service is available to patients who use any of our Hospice Services their families and significant others. 

People can choose to be supported individually, or with their family or a friend present. Many people find it helpful to talk with someone who is not part of their family circle. Most people begin to grieve from diagnosis of illness or at any stage in their care and treatment.
