Navigating Loss with Compassion and Hope
Grief Counselling
Grief changes everything. Whether you’ve lost a spouse, child, parent, friend, or faced another form of deep emotional pain, you may feel alone, overwhelmed, or uncertain about how to move forward. Our grief counselling South Africa programme is created to support you as you walk through the valleys of sorrow and begin to rediscover hope.
Led by Pastor Tiyani Mongwe, a counselling psychologist and retired minister with over 45 years of pastoral care — this Christ-centred service helps individuals and families process loss in a safe, faith-rooted environment. Each session gently explores the emotional, psychological, and spiritual layers of grief, offering encouragement grounded in biblical wisdom and professional support.
Whether your loss was recent or years past, healing is still possible — and you don’t have to do it alone.

A Christ-Centred Approach to Grief Counselling
“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” — Psalm 147:3
Grief often shakes the foundation of our faith — and yet it is in Christ that true comfort and healing are found. Pastor Tiyani Mongwe brings compassionate insight, spiritual wisdom, and clinical understanding into every grief counselling session.
Through scripture, prayer, and gentle pastoral care, you will be invited into a healing process that doesn’t rush or dismiss your sorrow. Instead, it helps you find God in the pain — and slowly, tenderly, walk toward healing.
