Dr. John Wilson

Dr. John Wilson PhD. John has specialised in bereavement and loss for 20 years, as a counsellor, supervisor and trainer. He is author of Supporting People through Loss and Grief: An Introduction for Counsellors and Other Caring Practitioners.

He completed his PhD in 2000 after six years of case study research with bereaved clients. John is a visiting research fellow at York St John University and Director of Bereavement Services at York St John University Counselling and Mental Health Clinic.

Since early March, John has taken a close interest in adapting the outcomes of his doctoral thesis to supporting clients bereaved of a loved one from Covid-19 and those bereaved from other causes during the lockdown.

With other counsellors he runs a closed support group on social media, for those bereaved during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Testimonials: Live Attendees

Leah Clements

Fabulous training! Interesting, informative and accessible. The theory was brought to life by John's own client material and personal experience. I can't recommend this highly enough!

Gurbaksh Kaur

Excellent event and training that offers flexibility in what you can afford to be allowed to attend.

Sarah Mcgrath

This has been the most enjoyable and thought provoking workshop I've ever attended, worth every penny.

Florence Nadaud

"The content of this first week of the series was very informative and shared in such a benevolent manner that I am genuinely looking forward to the next one. Grief is a very difficult topic but it was made manageable by the team delivering the training. The use of break-out rooms is an invaluable opportunity to network with colleagues from a variety of models and from all over the world."
