Media Enquiries

Grief Specialists is dedicated to helping anyone dealing with loss of any kind. We’re passionate about normalising conversations around grief through our network of grief professionals. While sharing people’s experiences of grief is important, we’d like to put the expert view out there and offer our professional opinion. That is why we’re keen to work with the media. 

 

Maria Bailey, our founder, has appeared in the national media (broadcast, newspapers and magazines). Her approach is about feelings and emotions originating from the heart, not the head. Intellectual approaches to grief don’t work. She also dismisses the stages of grief, highlighting that grief isn’t a linear process. 

 

Maria is always up early, so if you need someone at the last minute, she is always happy to help. 

 

Real Life Stories 

 

If you’re looking for exclusive real-life stories or case studies, we have access to a wealth of them through our network of Grief Specialists. We have appeared in many magazines, including Good Housekeeping, Prima, Stylist, Take A Break, and Bella, to name a few. 

​

We can find you a spokesperson on pretty much any kind of loss (bereavement, divorce, pet loss, loss of health, loss of normal…).
