Are you struggling with the loss of loved one and need someone to talk to?

I’m Yvonne, a grief counsellor, and I know from personal experience how difficult it can be to cope with the loss of some close whether family members or friends.

If you need someone to talk to, who can help you work through the pain of your grief and find a way to build your life again, I can help you.

My one-to-one sessions allow you to talk about your loss, your loved one and the struggles of even living everyday life, in a safe place. I will help you deal with the emotions attached to grief including the feelings of abandonment, anger and guilt.

I will listen with empathy and help you to find a way to overcome the loneliness and cope with adjusting to life as it now is.

I offer support online, or face-to-face in Matlock.

If you would like find our more, or to book a free introductory 20-minute consultation, please email me: Yvonne@daisyvision.co.uk or phone 07726 645229.

Really looking forward to a special afternoon again, as we find comfort and hope as we share and listen to significant songs and pieces of music together.

"What a wonderful, emotional & very therapeutic time we had together ... It was very special sharing our music” (this comment was made by someone following one of our musical afternoons).

I think that the musical afternoons are some of the most popular meetings we have and are the most requested. You don't have to be musical - there's no pressure to join in - you can just sit and listen if you want. Although it can be emotional, and tears may be shed, we also find comfort and enjoyment in sharing songs and pieces of music that may have personal significance or even that just cheer us up.

It's up to you what you want to share - it can be linked with Christmas or not - you choose.

If you have any requests please let me know as soon as possible and we'll do our best to play and sing them.

See you soon,
Yvonne.

Out and about on our bike again - but this time in the dark at the Matlock Christmas Parade and Lights Switch-on😄.

25/11/2025

Meeting in a little while - hope to see you there 😀.

Hello,

Just a quick reminder that we're meeting this afternoon.

So, if you've not been for a while or haven't managed to get along yet, it would be lovely to see you.

We meet at All Saints' Church Hall on Smedley Street which is a great venue as it has it's own car park.

Now serving 'real' coffee too or a lovely cup of tea if you prefer, and of course a biscuit 😄. We'll be talking about coping strategies for the festive season, as it will soon be upon us.

Hope to see you later,

Yvonne.

Looking forward to joining in by riding our illuminated "Daisy, Daisy Tandem", in support of "Daisy, Daisy Grief Cafe" and to spread the word about our local grief support, particularly at this, often very difficult, time of year for those feeling the pain of loss.

We'll be riding our "Daisy, Daisy Tandem" in the Christmas parade and attending the switch-on of the lights in Hall Leys Park. It's a great way to get the word out about the "Daisy, Daisy Grief Cafe" and meeting folk locally, who may want to chat to us. Of course, we'll also be collecting donations towards the running of our grief support group too.

It would be lovely to see familiar faces in the crowd - if you can come along and cheer us on our way, we'd really appreciate it.

At the Grief Cafe today, we began by focusing our attention on remembering those who have given their lives fighting for us on this Remembrance Day, and how the wars impacted everyday life with the pain of loss. We all agreed that today is a special day on which we were able to share our gratitude.

We then shared our experiences of how special dates impact our grieving, such as birthdays, and anniversaries. We concluded that although we have much sadness and miss our loved ones more than words can tell many of us agreed that we find it comforting to focus on the love we shared and appreciate the happier memories.

We meet every 2nd and 4th Tuesday and hire All Saints Church Hall on Smedley Street for our meetings.

Our next meeting will be on Tuesday 25th November and we will be talking about feeling our grief intensify at this time of year as we start to get nearer to Christmas and talk about ways of coping with our grief.

If you would like to find out more about this grief support group you can contact me, Yvonne on 07726 465229 or email yvonne@daisyvision.co.uk

A few days ago, I had a wander on a beautiful sunny morning in Matlock Bath.
The night before I had attended the Festival of Remembrance, at the Grand Pavillion, Matlock, which I had found to be very moving, particularly the music played by the Matlock Brass Band and songs we shared.
So, I thought I would capture some of the natural beauty of the river and hillside combined with the poppies to once again remind us not only of those who gave their lives for us in the World Wars, but those who still do so, on a daily basis.

For those who would like to talk about their grief and loved ones they miss, with others that understand, in an informal group setting we run this grief support group in Matlock. This isn't providing counselling, but can be comforting and helpful for those that are ready to join with others and talk.

22/10/2025

Meeting again this coming Tuesday - we're sharing photos of our loved ones.

14/10/2025

We're meeting again today for drinks, biscuits and to chat and share about our experiences of grief. As you can see, it's not all sadness and tears, but we also have share some smiles and laughs too. 😄

09/09/2025

We meet this afternoon at 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm, at All Saints' Church Hall.

You'll be made very welcome if it's your first time.

See you soon,
Yvonne.
